<h3>Answer: C. 3/10</h3>

A terminating decimal only happens when the fraction has a denominator with factors of 2 and/or 5. No other factors are allowed (other than 1).

Something like 1/12 has the denominator 12 with factors 2*2*3. That '3' means we won't have a terminating decimal. Similarly, the fractions 2/9 and 2/3 won't convert to a terminating decimal either.

3/10 on the other hand does convert to a terminating decimal and 3/10 = 0.3

What is the solution to this?

Ahat [919]

Answer:

$\frac{5}{4}$ $x^{4}$ + sinx + c

Step-by-step explanation:

using the power rule

∫(a $x^{n}$ ) = $\frac{a}{n+1}$ $x^{n+1}$ and ∫cosx = sinx

∫(5x³ + 2cosx )dx

= $\frac{5}{4}$ $x^{4}$ + 2sinx + c ( c is the constant of integration )

There are 25 boxes of paper. each box has 789 pieces of paper. how many pieces of paper are in all?

nika2105 [10]

This is a pretty basic multiplication problem.

If one box has 789 pieces of paper in it and there are 25 boxes, you will simply multiply 789 x 25

789 x 25 = 19,725.

This shows that there are 19,725 pieces of paper in the 25 boxes of paper.

The depth of a lake is 15.8m

Leya [2.2K]

a. Jada got the measurement 16m.

b. The measured depth differ 0.2m from the actual depth.

c. There is a 12.66% error in calculation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The depth of lake = 15.8 m

a. Jada accurately measured the depth of the lake to the nearest meter. What measurement did Jada get

When a digit after the decimal point is 5 or more than that, the number before decimal is rounded to the next number.

Therefore,

15.8 rounded to nearest number is 16.

The depth of lake measured by Jada = 16 m

Jada got the measurement 16m.

b. By how many meters does the measured depth differ from the actual depth?

Difference = Approx - Exact

Difference = 16 - 15.8 = 0.2m

The measured depth differ 0.2m from the actual depth.

c. Express the measurement error ad a percentage of the actual depth.

Percent error = $\frac{|approx-exact|}{exact}*100$

Percent error = $\frac{|2|}{15.8}*100 = \frac{200}{15.8}$

Percent error = 12.66%

There is a 12.66% error in calculation.
