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.

A scientist is studying the population growth rates of two different species of rats in the same laboratory conditions. The popu
Korolek [52]

Since, population of species A is represented by : P=2^{x} +19

Let us find the population of species A, at the end of week 1:

i.e., x = 1

i.e., P(1)=2^{1} +19

i.e., P(1)=2 +19

i.e., P(1)=21


Also, since population of species B is represented by : P=3^{x} +18

Let us find the population of species B, at the end of week 1:

i.e., x = 1

i.e., P(1)=3^{1} +18

i.e., P(1)=3 +18

i.e., P(1)=21


Thus, at the end of 1 week, species A and species B will have the same population.

Hence, option D is correct.

Solve for x using the given diagram
blagie [28]

Answer:

<h2>x = 1</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Look a t the picture.

The triangles on the picture are similar.

Therefore the sides are in proportion:

\dfrac{8x}{10}=\dfrac{4}{5x}              <em>cross multiply</em>

(8x)(5x)=(4)(10)

40x^2=40           <em>divide both sides by 40</em>

x^2=1\to x=\sqrt1\\\\x=1
