<u>Answer:</u>
0.0005 oz
<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>
Usually, the greatest number that is allowed for approximation, assuming that the number itself is obtained by approximation, is the greatest possible error of it.
It is normally half the place value of the last digit in a number.
Like here we have
oz which is equal to
oz. The last digit is 5 which is at the thousandth place (0.001) so the greatest possible error for this would be its half.
= 0.0005 oz
Answer:
The degree of the remainder should be 4 for the division process to be stopped
Step-by-step explanation:
From the question, we have the degree of the divisor as 5
So, for the division process to be stopped, the degree of the remainder should be one less than the degree of the divisor
Once the degree of the remainder is less than the degree of the divisor, we have no option that to stop and not proceed further with the division
So in the case of the particular question, the degree of the remainder should be of degree 4
2x^3-42x-40=0
2x^3-42x=40
2x(x^2-21)=40
a. 2x=40=>x=20
b. x^2=21+40=>x^2=61=>x=+-(radical(61)
