Why is it helpful to estimate the answer before adding or subtracting decimals?

So you can get a basic idea of what your actual answer will be in range of.

Example:
10.5+5.5=__

I can safely assume with estimating that it'll be 15.
Now when I actually find the correct answer which is 16, its a safe bet knowing that your estimate is close to your actual answer.

If you make an uneducated guess like saying 10.5+5.5 was 30 then your answer was 16 its makes you wonder how you got an estimate of almost 2x of 16.

Estimates help, so you know what range your real answer would be in.

Hope this helps

I need the answer fore both plsss

Answer:  6i) 6a² - 2ab

               6ii) -2b³

               6iii) b³ + 7b² - 49b

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

6i)   (a + b)(5a - 3b)             +    (a - 3b)(a - b)

=    5a² - 3ab + 5ab - 3b²   +    a² - ab - 3ab + 3b²

=    5a² + 2ab - 3b²             +   a² - 4ab + 3b²

= 6a² - 2ab

6ii)    (a - b)(a² + b² + ab)              -  (a + b)(a² + b² - ab)

=   a³ + ab² + a²b - ab² - a²b - b³ -  (a³ + ab² - a²b -ab² + a²b + b³)

=   a³ - b³                                      -  (a³ + b³)

=   a³ - b³                                      - a³ - b³

= -2b³

6iii) (b² - 49)(b + 7)             +     343

=     b³ + 7b² - 49b - 343    +    343

=     b³ + 7b² - 49b

Compound interest
aev [14]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  4254.31

Step-by-step explanation:

The compound interest multiplier is ...

  m = (1 +r/n)^(nt) . . . . annual rate r compounded n times per year, t years

For 11% compounded quarterly for 18 years, the multiplier is ...

  m = (1 +0.11/4)^(4·18) = 1.0275^72 ≈ 7.0516671

If 30,000 is the future value, then the present value is ...

  PV = FV/m = 30,000/7.0516671

  PV ≈ 4254.31
