How do you determine whether to use 22/7 or 3.14 for π ?

Answer:

  Use the value the problem statement tells you. Otherwise, use a better approximation.

Step-by-step explanation:

π ≈ 3.141592653589793238... (a non-repeating infinite decimal)

3.14 = 3.14

22/7 = 3.142857142857_142857

355/113 = 3.14159292035... (a very long repeating decimal)

You can see that the third decimal place is wrong in both of your approximations. The last approximation shown has 7 good decimal digits. A good scientific or graphing calculator will have an internal value for pi that is good to 10 or 12 digits or more (preferably, at least 32 digits).

You should use a value for pi that has at least one more digit of accuracy than the number of significant digits in your answer.

Answer:

x+74=180

x=180-74

x=106

x=4y+22

106-22=4y

84/4=y

21=y

y=21

Can someone tell me if these answers are right or not? These problems are getting on my nerves!

1a. 3^1 / 3^2 = 3^1-2 = 3^-1 = 1/3^1 = 1/3.
2b. 4^2 / 4^4 = 4^2-4 = 4^-2 = 1/4^2.
3c. 6^3/6^5 = 6^3-5 = 6^-2 = 1/6^2.
4d. 3^-5 • 3^2 = 3^-10 = 1/3^10.

I believe for the last question its asking only to rewrite exponent as a positive exponent similar to the first question.
