The mistake the student made in the second procedure is she tried to solve 3.7+2.6 the same way she solved 4.3+8.4, which that way doesn't always work. You have to understand how decimals work when it comes to adding them. The right way to solve 3.7+2.6 and be sure you are accurate is to line the numbers up. Then add the numbers behind the decimal which is 7+6. That equals 13. So you would out your 3 and carry your 1 over to the number in front of the decimal. So 3+2=5, plus the additional one you had to carry. Your final answer would be 6.3
Answer:
The median is 24
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the Median, place the numbers in value order and find the middle number. Example: find the Median of {13, 23, 11, 16, 15, 10, 26}. Put them in order: {10, 11, 13, 15, 16, 23, 26} The middle number is 15, so the median is 15.
List factors of each:
60: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 10, 12, 15, 20, 30, 60
45: 1, 3, 5, 9, 15, 45
The largest common value is 15
The greatest possible length of each is 15 cm
Answer: 15 cm.
Answer: $70 per year.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's say that x is the number of years that has passed and y is how much the stamp is worth.
So we know that in zero years the stamp was worth $420 because that is the time Sheri gave her brother Sam the stamp. That could bring up the coordinates (0,420) .
Now we know that in 8 years it was worth $980 and that could be the coordinates (8,980)
To find the rate of change we need to find the different between the y value and divide it by the difference in the x values.
420 - 980 = -560
0-8 = -8
-560/-8 = 70
The rate of change is 70 which means that it grew by $70 every year.
