Answer

Length measured using Ruler A= 1.17 dm

Length measured using Ruler B=1.18 dm

Step by Step Explanation:

I have added the missing photograph which shows the length of pencil being measured with two rulers.

Ruler A has marking separated by 1 dm

Ruler B has marking separated by 0.1 dm

Length measured using Ruler A= 1.17 dm

(As we can see I have added the middle markers, we can see the tip of pencil is somewhere between 1 and 1.25, it is more than 1.125 but lesser than 1.25, it is somewhere around 1.2 and 1.125 dm, approximately equal to one half of 1.25 which is 1.125 with addition of one of the three halves of half of 1.125 which is 1.125+0.045 dm hence 1.17dm)

Length measured using Ruler B=1.18 dm

(we can see the tip of pencil is just before 1.2 dm, it is clear that the value is precisely 1.18 and not 1.19 dm)

<u><em>Tip:Always measure one more decimal than given by the ruler when unsure about the exact value</em></u>

\displaysyle (\sqrt 2)^{3}=(2^{\frac{1}{2}})^3=2^{\frac{1}{2} \cdot 3}=2^{\frac{3}{2}}=\sqrt {2^3}=\sqrt 8

√8 is between 2 and 3, because 2²=4<8, but 3²=9>8. Also, our value is closer to 3 than to 2, so it is more than 2.5 and we have C and D options left.

Among these two numbers we find the one which is closer to √8.

C. 27=√729 ⇒ 2.7=√7.29

D. 28=√784 ⇒ <u>2.8=√7.84</u>

Hence our answer is D) 2.8

I need help with this question asap pleaseeeeee
Harman [31]

Answer:

y = 3\sqrt{7}

Step-by-step explanation:

The two inner right triangles are similar, thus the ratios of corresponding sides are equal, that is

\frac{y}{9} = \frac{7}{y} ( cross- multiply )

y² = 63 ( take the square root of both sides )

y = \sqrt{63} = \sqrt{9(7)} = \sqrt{9} × \sqrt{7} = 3\sqrt{7}
