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.

Answer:

m=7 z=-12

Step-by-step explanation:

expand brackets:

8m+24=5m+45

Change sides:

8m-5m=45-24

3m=21

<u>m=7</u>

<u />

<u>z-6</u>    =  <u>3</u>

2z         4

Coss multiply:

4z-24=6z

4z-6z=24

-2z=24

Divide both sides by -2:

z=-12

Help someone how do you solve this
Flauer [41]

Answer:

a = 10/3

Step-by-step explanation:

This can be written as:

x^{2} (x^{4})^{1/3}  = x^{a}

Anything to the power of 1/3 means to find the cube root. We can simplify this to:

x^{2} (x^{4/3}) = x^{a}

I just multiplied 4 and 1/3 (because of the second index law (a^{m})^{n}  = a^{mn}). Now, we can add the powers because the bases are the same and we are multiplying (first index law):

x^{10/3} = x^{a}

a = 10/3

Hope this helps!

What is the solution to the equation 3 x+ 2 = -x-57<br> X=-8<br> o x=-7<br> o x=7<br> O X=8
luda_lava [24]

Answer:

x = -59/4

Step-by-step explanation:

3 x+ 2 = -x-57

Add x to each side

3 x+x+ 2 = -x+x-57

4x+2 = -57

Subtract 2 from each side

4x +2-2 = -57-2

4x = -59

Divide each side by 4

4x/4 = -59/4

x = -59/4
