Answer:

<h3>40 degrees</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

If the temperature dropped 5 degrees every hour, this can be expressed as;

5 degree = 1 hour

To get the total number of degree dropped fro 8hours, we will say;

x degree = 8hours where x is the temperature drop in all

Solving both equality

5 degree = 1 hour

x degree = 8 hours

cross multiply

x * 1 = 5 * 8

x = 40 degrees

<em>Hence the total temperature drop in all is 40°</em>

How to approximate to 3 significant figures

Answer:

We round a number to three significant figures in the same way that we would round to three decimal places. We count from the first non-zero digit for three digits. We then round the last digit. We fill in any remaining places to the right of the decimal point with zeros.

I don’t know how to do this question

lubasha [3.4K]

let x represent the number of apples and y represent the number of oranges.

TOTAL: x + y = 112

y = 112 - x

PEELED: $\frac{3}{8}x = \frac{1}{2}y$
