Answer:
Emma was right to say that both packages are close to 2 pounds.
If we round-off the weights of both to the nearest whole number we would get 2 pounds on both. We look at the the difference of both from 2 pounds we get the following:
2.36 - 2.0 = 0.36
2.09 - 2.0 = 0.09
The smaller the difference the closer it is to the base value. So we can say that the closest one is 2.0 pounds is the package that weighs 2.09 pounds.
If the owner is giving a free cupcake to every 4th customer. Then the easiest way to do this is to follow the 4 times table: 4, 8, 12, 16, 20
So the answer is No, Emma will not be receiving a free cupcake as she is the 17th customer and doesn't fall into the 4th customer pattern.
The distance between the two points is 5.4
Explanation:
The points are (-1,-9) and (1,-4)
The distance between the two points can be determined using the formula
Substituting the values in the formula, we get,
Adding the values,
Squaring the terms, we get,
Simplifying, we have,
Thus, the distance between the two points is 5.4
Reason: if you subtract 3 on both sides of the equal sign that will leave you with 7.
