Starting with the parent function f(x) = √x, Marilyn replaces x with x +
k, where k is positive, to form a new function, g(x). The result will
be that her graph will translate horizontally k units to the left.
If K=C+273.15
and in a. C=200° then K=200+273.15
3 16/8
16/8 simplifies to 2
So add 3+2=5
(a) 0.0095 + (8.5 x 10^-3) = 0.0095 + 0.0085 = 0.018 = 1.8 x 10^-2
(b) 653 + (5.75 x 10^-8) = 653 + 0.0000000575 = 653.0000000575 = 6.530000000575 x 10^2
(c) 850,000 – (9.0 x 10^5) = 850,000 - 900,000 = -50,000 = -5.0 x 10^4
You have to add the whole numbers, which is 5 + 2 = 7. Then you add the fractions. In order to do that, you have to convert 4/9 to X/36 so 15/36 and 4/9 have the same denominator. In this case, 9 is a factor of 36, so you can multiply 4/9 by 4/4 (which is like multiplying by one). The result is 16/36. Now add the numerators 15 + 16 = 31. Denominator remains 36 because you do not change it when you add fractions.
The result therefore is 7 and 31/36.
