3 1/4 = 3.25
-2 2/3 = -2.6667
3.25 + (- 2.6667)
= 3.25 - 2.6667
= ~0.58
therefore best estimate is 0

Answer:  0

Step-by-step explanation:

Conversion of Mixed fraction to improper :

a\dfrac{b}{c}=\dfrac{a\timesc+b}{c} , where a, b, c are integers and not equal to zero.

The given expression : 3\dfrac{1}{4}+(-2\dfrac{2}{3})    ..(i)

Here , 3\dfrac{1}{4}=\dfrac{3\times4+1}{4}=\dfrac{13}{4}     ..(ii)

-2\dfrac{2}{3}=-\dfrac{2\times3+2}{3}=-\dfrac{6+2}{3}=-\dfrac{8}{3}    ...(iii)

Now substitute (ii) and (iii) in (i) , we get

\dfrac{13}{4}-\dfrac{8}{3}=\dfrac{13\times3-8\times4}{4\times3}\\\\=\dfrac{39-34}{12}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{12}=0.583333333333\approx0 [\text{Nearest given option}]

Hence the best estimate for the give expression would be 0.

Answer:

(x-1)^2+(y+4)^2=9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle is given by:

(x-h)^2+(y-k)^2=r^2

Where (h, k) is the center and r is the radius.

The center of the circle is (1, -4).

And the radius is 3.

Substitute:

(x-(1))^2+(y-(-4))^2=(3)^2

Simplify. Thus, our equation is:

(x-1)^2+(y+4)^2=9

Step-by-step explanation:

one number= x

the other number= (x-4)

x + (x-4) = 84

2x= 84+4

2x= 88

x= 88/2= 44

Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

Check the explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Below are the null and alternative Hypothesis,

Null Hypothesis, H0: μ = 300000

Alternative Hypothesis, Ha: μ < 300000

Test statistic,

z = (xbar - mu)/(sigma/sqrt(n))

z = (288000 - 300000)/(80000/sqrt(25))

z = -0.75

P-value Approach

P-value = 0.2266

As P-value >= 0.05, fail to reject null hypothesis.

The ratio of Dina's bathing suit to yana is 4:1, if Dina has 24 more bathing suits than yana, how many bathing suits does yana h
Thepotemich [5.8K]
I'd say Yana has 6...

30\ 6 is 5

the ratio range is a group inside 5..

so Dina has 30 swim suits...which is 5 times 6 of yana.

so since Dina has 24 "more" than yana... Dina is 4 : Yana is 1....4:1
