Describe a real life multiplication situation for which an estimate makes sense

If you are trying to create a garden of potted plants, you would find out how much soil each pot needs/holds and multiply that by how many pots you plan to use. then you would go to the store for potting soil, which let’s say came in smaller packs and you need to purchase multiple. use multiplication estimation to estimate how many bags you’d need.
I know this is a dumb example...sorry this is one I remember from my fourth grade math teacher ahah

Find f(-11/5) if f(n) = 5n + 6
V125BC [204]

Answer:

f(-11/5) = -5

Step-by-step explanation:

f(n) = 5n + 6

Let x = -11/5

f(-11/5) = 5*-11/5 +6

          = -11 +6

60 pts! <br><br>2x + 34 = 4(x + 5)<br><br>solve the equation for x. ​
erma4kov [3.2K]

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

expand 4(x+5): 4x+20

2x+34=4x+20

subtract 34 from both sides

2x+34-34=4x+20-34

2x=4x-14

subtract 4x from both sides

2x-4x=4x-14-4x

-2x=-14

divide both sides by -2

-2x/-2=-14/-2

x=7

20. The H.M. between 2 and 8 is<br>(1 marks )​
e-lub [12.9K]

Answer as an improper fraction = 16/5

Answer as a mixed number = 3 & 1/5

Answer in decimal form = 3.2

All of those values represent the same thing, but written in a different way.

=============================================================

Explanation:

I'm assuming HM stands for Harmonic Mean in this case.

If so, then we apply the reciprocal operation to each value to get 1/2 and 1/8 (from 2 and 8 respectively).

Add up those fractions:

1/2 + 1/8 = 4/8 + 1/8 = 5/8

Now we'll divide n = 2 over that result. The n = 2 refers to the number of items in the original set.

n divide over (5/8) = 2*(8/5) = 16/5 which is the answer as an improper fraction

-----------

To convert to a mixed number, we can do the following:

16/5 = (15+1)/5

16/5 = 15/5 + 1/5

16/5 = 3 + 1/5

16/5 = 3 & 1/5

Or if you need the answer in decimal form, then using a calculator would get you 16/5 = 3.2
