No, if we were to make the decimal for angel it would be 0.500 which is more than lance, you can also round them

No, Lance is not correct.

Further explanation:

If we compare the two decimal numbers then either they are less than, greater than or equal to each other.

For example:

There are two decimal numbers as,

0.56{\text{ and 0}}{\text{.88}}

Now, 0.88 is greater than 0.56 as the number after the decimal point is greater in 0.88 than 0.56.

It is given that Lance measured 0.485 liter of water.

Also, given that Angel measured 0.5 liter of water.

Lance claims that her beaker has more water than Angel’s breaker because her number has three decimal places and Angel’s only has one.

Step by step explanation:

Now, Lance has 0.485l of water and Angel has 0.5l of water.

The decimal number which has greater number after the decimal point, then that decimal number is greater than the other.

Therefore, Lance only has 0.485l of water whereas Angel has 0.5l of water in which Angel has more water than Lance.

Thus, Lance is wrong in analyzing the water quantity.

% Do not modify CalculateSum function maxSum = CalculateSum(userNum1, userNum2, userNum3) maxSum = MaxValue(userNum1, userNum2)
sergeinik [125]

Answer:

The function in Python is as follows:

def MaxValue(userNum1, userNum2):

   if userNum2>userNum1:

       return userNum2

   else:

       return userNum1

Explanation:

This defines the function

def MaxValue(userNum1, userNum2):

This returns userNum2 if userNum2 is greater than userNum1

<em>    if userNum2>userNum1:</em>

<em>        return userNum2</em>

If otherwise, this returns userNum1

<em>    else:</em>

<em>        return userNum1</em>

Write a program that prompt the user to enter the coordinate of two points (x1, y1) and (x2,y2), and displays the slope of the l
zzz [600]

Answer:

Here is code in C++.

//include headers

#include <bits/stdc++.h>

using namespace std;

//main function

int main() {

//variables to store coordinates

float x1,x2,y1,y2;

cout<<"Please Enter the coordinate of first point (x1,y1): ";

// reading coordinate of first point

cin>>x1>>y1;

cout<<"Please Enter the coordinate of second point (x2,y2): ";

// reading coordinate of second point

cin>>x2>>y2;

//calculating Slope of the line that connects these points

float m=(x2-x1)/(y2-y1);

cout<<"Slope of the line that connects these two points is :  "<<m<<endl;

}

Explanation:

Declare four variables x1,x2,y1,y2 to store the coordinate of both points.

Read the coordinate of both the point from user. Calculate the slop of the

line which connects these two points with the formula m=(x2-x1)/(y2-y1).

Output:

Please Enter the coordinate of first point (x1,y1): 1 3                                                                                                        

Please Enter the coordinate of second point (x2,y2): 5 12                                                                                                      

Slope of the line that connects these two points is :  0.444444
