How do you estimate 175.32 ÷ 3 =

Mathematics
1 answer:
geniusboy [140]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  ≈ 58

Step-by-step explanation:

Estimation usually means you want an answer good to one or maybe two significant figures. That usually means you want to round the numbers involved to one or two significant figures.

Doing that here transforms the problem to 180/3 = 60, an answer with one significant figure.

You can improve the estimate a bit by recognizing that it is a little high (the numerator is higher than 175.32, but the denominator is the same). Since the numerator is high by about 5, the estimate is high by about 5/3 or a little less than 2. A closer estimate will be 60 - 2 = 58.

_____

The degree to which you refine the estimate will depend on the error requirements you have. Certainly an estimate of 60 is within 10% of the true value, so is "close enough" for many purposes.

A square fits exactly inside a circle with each of its vertices being on the circumference of the circle.
swat32

Answer:

The side of the square is 5.971 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

If the square fits the circle exactly, then its diagonal is equal to the diameter of the circle. Since the side of the square has a length of x cm, then it's diagonal have the length of x\sqrt2 cm. Using the circle's area we can find the diagonal of the square, as shown below:

area = \pi*r^2\\56 = pi*r^2\\r^2 = \frac{56}{\pi}\\r = \sqrt{\frac{56}{\pi}}\\r = 4.222

Since the diameter of the circle is the same as the diagonal of the square, then:

x\sqrt{2} = 2*r \\x = \frac{2*r}{\sqrt{2}}\\x = \frac{2*4.222}{\sqrt{2}}\\x = 5.971

The side of the square is 5.971 cm

Solve for p. -1 + 5p = -10 + 4p
sdas [7]

Answer:

p = - 9

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

- 1 + 5p = - 10 + 4p ( subtract 4p from both sides )

- 1 + p = - 10 ( add 1 to both sides )

p = - 9
