Answer:

The correct option is (A).

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that a scale measures weight to the nearest 0.1 pounds. Our task is to find the most appropriate way to report the weight using this scale.

We can do this problem with the help of options one by one.

Option A :

152.2 pound - In this value, the nearest measure is 0.1. It is possible.

152.127 pounds - There are three values after decimal. It is not possible as the scale measures to the nearest pounds.

152 pounds and 200 pound - Both of the numbers are rounded figures. It is not possible to measure to the nearest pounds.

Hence, the correct option is (A) " 152.2 pounds ".

- 7(2-1) = 28<br> The solution is?

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Is there a x somewhere or is that litteraly how the equation is?

If so, -7 multiplied by 2 is -14,

-1 times -7 is 7,

add it together and you get

-7=28,

you could add 7 to both sides or subtract 28 from both sides and you'll get either 0=35 or -35=0

which would make the solution false since both sides are not the same

Answer:

Absolute minimum = 1.414

Absolute maximum = 2.828

Step-by-step explanation:

$g(x,y)=\sqrt {x^2+y^2} \ constraints: 1\leq x\leq 2 ,\ 1\leq y\leq2$

For absolute minimum we take the minimum values of $x$ and $y$ .

$x_{minimum} =1\\y_{minimum}=1\\$

Plugging in the minimum values in the function.

$g(1,1)=\sqrt {1^2+1^2}\\g(1,1) = \sqrt{1+1}\\g(1,1)=\sqrt {2}\\g(1,1)=\pm 1.414\\$

Absolute minimum value will be always positive.

∴ Absolute minimum = 1.414

For absolute maximum we take the maximum values of $x$ and $y$ .

$x_{maximum} =2\\y_{maximum}=2\\$

Plugging in the maximum values in the function.

$g(2,2)=\sqrt {2^2+2^2}\\g(2,2) = \sqrt{4+4}\\g(2,2)=\sqrt {8}\\g(2,2)=\pm 2.828\\$

Absolute maximum value will be always positive.

∴ Absolute maximum = 2.828
