H(d)=height from water
when he reaches the water, his height from water=0

so set the equation equal to zero and solve

0=-d^2+2d+24
multiply both sides by -1 for ease
0=d^2-2d-24
now find what 2 factors of -24 add up to -2
answer is -6 and 4
0=(d-6)(d+4)
set each to zero
d-6=0
d=6

d+4=0
d=-4
you cannot have negative distance  because that means he hasn't jumped yet so get rid of this number

d=6

answer is 6 meters

0.04 rounded to the nearest hundreth<br><br> and <br><br> 0.2% rounded to the nearest hundreth
ELEN [110]
To round a number, you look to the next place to the right of what you want to round to... for example, if you want to round to the nearest hundredth, you look to the thousandths place to see whether the hundredths place rounds up or down.

0.04 is already at the hundredths place so the thousandths place is zero... the answer to the nearest hundredth is 0.04.

For 0.2%, you have to convert the percentage to a decimal by dividing by 100 (move the decimal 2 places to the left).

0.2% = 0.002

So now to round to the nearest hundredth, we look to the thousandths place. The thousandths place has a 2 in it so the hundredths place rounds down. 0.2% total he nearest hundredth is 0.

Mila [183]

Answer:

132

Step-by-step explanation:

13/10+2/100=?/100

Get a common denominator of 100 for the first term

13/10  * (10/10)  +2/100=?/100

130/100 + 2/100 = ?/100

132/100   = ? /100

The Glitz Jewelry Kit contains round beads in 6 different colors plus 100 star-shaped beads.
Alinara [238K]

Answer:

False, it would actually be 106 beads. If this was a multiplication problem, that would also be false, because 6 times 100 is 600, not 350.

But let's attempt to make this statement true.

<u>First/Last step:</u><em> Find the missing beads.</em>

The missing beads are 144.

Why?

Because you must add 144 to reach 250, there is no other way but to multiply. In this case, because the key word is, "In all" we are adding.
