Finger [1]

Answer:

$\large\boxed{12.25=\dfrac{49}{4}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

$12.\underbrace{25}_{2}=\dfrac{1225}{1\underbrace{00}_2}=\dfrac{1225:25}{100:25}=\dfrac{49}{4}\\\\12.25=12+0.25=12+\dfrac{25}{100}=12+\dfrac{25:25}{100:25}=12+\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\=\dfrac{12\cdot4}{4}+\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{48+1}{4}=\dfrac{49}{4}$

vladimir1956 [14]

Answer:

make a graphical representation for our case do we have infinite lines pass through a point M?

Step-by-step explanation:

If the graphs of the equations do not intersect (for example, if they are parallel), then there are no solutions that are true for both equations. If the graphs of the equations are the same, then there are an infinite number of solutions that are true for both equations.

Camilo estimates the weight of the dog . The veterinarian says that the dog weighs 84 pounds . The percent error in Camillo's es

blsea [12.9K]

Answer:

The estimated weight is in the range:

75.6 pounds $\leq$ Weight $\leq$ 92.4 pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

Since, the maximum error is 10%.

Therefore, the maximum and minimum vales will be 10% more and 10% less than 84 pounds, respectively.

For Maximum Limit:

$Weight_{max}$ = (1.1)(84 pounds)

$Weight_{max}$ = 92.4 pounds

For Minimum Limit:

$Weight_{min}$ = (0.9)(84 pounds)

$Weight_{min}$ = 75.6 pounds

Hence, the estimated weight is in the range:

75.6 pounds $\leq$ Weight $\leq$ 92.4 pounds
