Answer:

a) 675 000

b) 685 000

Step-by-step explanation:

The population of a town is 680 000 correct to the nearest 10 000.

a) To find it lower bound, we level of accuracy by 2 and then subtract from 680 000

The lower bound is:

680 000-5000=675,000

Therefore the least possible population of the town is 675 000

b) We repeat the same process to find the upper bound

680 000+5000=685,000

Mrs Smith has 12 times as many markers as color pencils the total number of markers and colored pencils is 78 how many markers d

yawa3891 [41]

x = markers
y = colored pencils

12x = y

x= 72
y = 6

Okay, so what I did was divide 78 by 12 (to find the number of colored pencils) which gave me 6.5. You can't have half a colored pencil, so I rounded the number down to get 6. To find the number of markers, I multiplied 12 and 6 (12x = 6) which gave me 72. To check my answer I added the two amounts, 72 + 6, which gave me 78.

The figures below are similar; write what you know about the angles and sides.

Nuetrik [128]

Because BLIND is similar to FAITH,

for corresponding sides we can write,

|BL|/|FA| = |LI|/|AI| = |IN|/|IT| = |ND|/|TH| = |DB|/|HF|.

For corresponding angles we can write

m∠B=m∠F, m∠L=m∠A, m∠LIN=m∠AIT, m∠N=m∠T, m∠D=m∠H.

HURRY PLS What is the solution to the system that is created by the equation y = 2 x + 10 and the graph shown below? On a coordi

marin [14]

Answer:

(-8, -6)

Step-by-step explanation:

When you graph the given equation on the given graph, you find the lines intersect at (-8, -6).

The solution to the system is (-8, -6).

The equation is given in slope-intercept form, so you can find the y-intercept (y=10) and draw a line with slope 2 from there. It will go through (-5, 0), so you know the solution lies in the 3rd quadrant and has an x-value less than -5. Only one answer choice matches.
