Answer:

1. Set a has two numbers with different number of digits and set b has two number with same number of digits

2. Alissa conjecture is true

3. Her strategy is the number which has the greatest ten thousand place is the greatest number because hundred thousand place has same digit in both numbers

Step-by-step explanation:

* <em>Lets explain how we can solve the problem </em>

- Alisa says it is easier to compare the numbers in set

 a (45,000, 1,025,680) instead of set b (492,111, 409,867)

∵ Set a has two numbers one of them 5-digit and the other is 7-digit

∵ Set b has two numbers both of them 6-digit

∴ We can decide whether Alissa conjecture is true or not

1. Set a has two numbers with different number of digits and set b

   has two number with same number of digits

-  Lets look to set a there are two numbers

  45,000 and 1,025,680

∵ The first number formed fro 5 digits and the greatest place value

  is ten thousands

∵ The second number formed from 7 digits and the greatest place

   value is million

∴ The second number is greatest then the first number

- <u><em>She did that without looking to the digits and compare them</em></u>

- Lets look to set b there are two numbers

  492,111 and 409,867

∵ The first number formed from six digits and the greatest place

   value is hundred thousands

∵ The second number formed from six digits and the greatest place

   value is hundred thousands

∴ The two numbers have same number of digits

∴ We must start to compare the digits from greatest place value

- <u><em>She must compare the corresponding digits to find the greatest one</em></u>

2. Alissa conjecture is true because she can compare the number in

  set a by counting the number of digits but in set b she must

  compare the corresponding digits

∵ The greatest place value is hundred thousands and the two

  numbers have the same digit 4 in this place, so she must look

  to the ten thousand place

∵ The ten thousands digit in the first number is 9

∵ The ten thousands digit in the second number is 0

∵ 9 > 0

∴ The first number is greater than the second number

3. Her strategy is the number which has the greatest ten thousand

   place is the greatest number because hundred thousand place

   has same digit in both numbers

A circular mirror is surrounded by a square metal frame the radius of the mirror is 2X the side length of the metal frame is 6X
vovangra [49]

Answer:

Area of the metal frame is 23.43x^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Radius of circular mirror = 2x

Side length of the metal frame = 6x

We need to find the area of the metal frame.

Solution:

First we will find the area of the whole thing.

area of the whole thing is in square shape we can say that;

area of the whole thing is equal to square of the length of the metal frame.

framing in equation form we get;

area of the whole thing = (6x)^2 = 36x^2

Now we will find the area of the circular mirror.

Since mirror is in circular form we will use area of the circle.

So area of circular mirror is equal to π times square of the radius.

framing in equation form we get;

area of the circular mirror = \pi r^2 = \pi(2x)^2 = \pi 4x^2 = 12.57x^2

Now to find the area of the metal frame surrounded my the mirror we will subtract area of the circular mirror from area of the whole thing.

framing in equation form we get;

area of the metal frame = 36x^2-12.57x^2 = 23.43x^2

Hence Area of the metal frame is 23.43x^2.

Tom gets a bonus of 30% of £96
Alchen [17]

Answer:

The difference between their bonus is £2.60

Step-by-step explanation:

The bonus Tom receives is 30% of £96

Tom's bonus

=  \frac{30}{100}  \times 96

= 28.8

So the bonus Tom received is £28.8

From the question, Sally gets a bonus of £31.40

We need to find the difference between the bonus Tom gets and the bonus Sally gets.

This given by:

£31.40 -£28.8=£2.60
