Option 2

Martha estimated the quotient. Martha error was she should have rounded -8.02 to -8.

<u>SOLUTION: </u>

Given that, Martha estimated the quotient of -71.81 and -8.02 using rounding to the nearest whole number.

And she committed an mistake. We have to find the error made by Martha while calculating quotient.

She treated -71.81 to be 72 and -8.02 to be 9. As both the number are negative there will be no problem when we get quotient.

When treated as above she got quotient as 8.

But in general, the quotient is not 8.

If we see options, we derive an conclusion.

<u>Option (1) </u>

she should have rounded 71.81 to 70, no this is not correct as 72 is nearest whole number.

<u>Option (2)</u>

she should have rounded 8.02 to 8, yes this is correct conclusion.

<u>Option (3)</u>

she should have divided 8 by 72, no this is not correct, we should divided 72 by 8.

<u>Option (4) </u>

she didn’t make an error, this is wrong as in 2nd option we caught an error.

Hence, second option is correct.

Solve for yyy. a(n+y) = 10y+32a(n+y)=10y+32a
Afina-wow [57]
To solve for y, you need to separate it in one side and the other terms in the other side..... as follows:

<span>a(n+y)=10y+32a
an + ay = 10y + 32a

an - an + ay = 10y + 32a - an

ay = 10y + 32a - an

ay -10y = 32a - an

y (a-10) = (32 - n)a

y = {a(32-n)} / (a-10)

8(t+2)-3(t-4)=6(t-7)+8
kaheart [24]
PEMDAS
the first thing is multiply or distribute
a(b+c)=ab+ac
8(t+2)=8t+16
-3(t-4)=-3t+12
6(t-7)=6t-42
the equation comes out to
8t+16-3t+12=6t-42+8
add like terms
5t+28=6t-34
subtract 5t from both sides
28=t-34
add 34 to both sides
62=t
