How many significant figures are in the measured value 550,000,000?

NikAS [45]3 years ago
5 0

There are 2 significant figures (sig figs) which are the two '5' digits. The zeros aren't considered sig figs because we can write the number as 5.5 * 10^8 to represent the exact same idea. The 0's are simply placeholders to tell how big the number is, not necessarily how accurate it is. If the 0s were between the decimal point and a nonzero value, then the 0s would be significant. If the 0s were to the right of the decimal, then they would be significant.

Answer: 2

A baker bakes 50 muffins. 1/5 of the muffins are chocolate chip. 1/2 of the muffins are blueberry. The rest are cinnamon. How ma
vitfil [10]

Answer:

15 muffins are cinnamon.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that:

Number of muffins baked = 50 muffins

Chocolate chip muffins = 1/5 of 50 = \frac{1}{5}*50

Chocolate chip muffins = 10 muffins

Blueberry muffins = 1/2 of 50 = \frac{1}{2}*50

Blueberry muffins = 25

Cinnamon muffins = Muffins baked - chocolate chip muffins - blueberry muffins

Cinnamon muffins = 50 - 10 - 25

Cinnamon muffins = 50 - 35 = 15

Hence,

15 muffins are cinnamon.

If angle ABC is one degree less than three times angle ABD and angle DBC=47 find each measure
Contact [7]

It has not been indicated whether the figure in the questions is a triangle or a quadrilateral. Irrespective of the shape, this can be solved. The two possible shapes and angles have been indicated in the attached image.

Now, from the information given we can infer that there is a line BD that cuts angle ABC in two parts: angle ABD and angle DBC

⇒ Angle ABC = Angle ABD + Angle DBC

Also, we know that angle ABC is 1 degree less than 3 times the angle ABD, and that angle DBC is 47 degree

Let angle ABD be x

⇒ Angle ABC = 3x-1

Also, Angle ABC = Angle ABD + Angle DBC

Substituting the values in the above equations

⇒ 3x-1 = x+47

⇒ 2x = 48

⇒ x = 24

So angle ABD = 24 degree, and angle ABC = 3(24)-1 = 71-1 = 71 degree
