All estimating problems make the assumption you are familar with your math facts, addition and multiplication. Since students normally memorize multiplication facts for single-digit numbers, any problem that can be simplified to single-digit numbers is easily worked.
2. You are asked to estimate 47.99 times 0.6. The problem statement suggests you do this by multiplying 50 times 0.6. That product is the same as 5 × 6, which is a math fact you have memorized. You know this because
.. 50 × 0.6 = (5 × 10) × (6 × 1/10)
.. = (5 × 6) × (10 ×1/10) . . . . . . . . . . . by the associative property of multiplication
.. = 30 × 1
.. = 30
3. You have not provided any clue as to the procedure reviewed in the lesson. Using a calculator,
.. 47.99 × 0.6 = 28.79 . . . . . . rounded to cents
4. You have to decide if knowing the price is near $30 is sufficient information, or whether you need to know it is precisely $28.79. In my opinion, knowing it is near $30 is good enough, unless I'm having to count pennies for any of several possible reasons.
Hello,
there are some words that I could not read. But:
I support evements are independants.
p(s)=0.2
p(l)=1-0.2=0.8 l=lose
1)0.8*0.2=0.16
2) 0.8²*0.2=0.128
3) 0.8^3*0.2=0.1024
4) 0.2*0.8^(n-1)
Answer:
Sampling is necessary because researchers in the social sciences almost never have enough resources — time or money — to collect information about the entire set of subjects of interest to them.
Step-by-step explanation:
Sampling is done because you usually cannot gather data from the entire population. Even in relatively small populations, the data may be needed urgently, and including everyone in the population in your data collection may take too long.
1. Parenthesis:
(15)8 - 4 + 2 + 1
Multiply:
120 - 4 + 2 + 1
Subtract:
116 + 2 + 1
Add:
119, the answer is A.
2. 8 x 15 = 120
120 / 2 = 60
6 x 15 = 90
90 + 60 = 150
The answer is A.
Hope this helps!
