Which mark on the tape measure is closest to 2.23607 inches?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Lapatulllka [165]3 years ago
5 0

Answer:

  5.7 cm or 2 1/4 in

Step-by-step explanation:

Your tape measure is not shown.

  On my tape measure, 5.7 cm is the closest mark. On the inch scale, 2 1/4 inches is the next-closest mark.

_____

On a tape measure graduated in 1/32 inch between 2 and 3 inches, you can find the closest mark by rounding to the nearest 32nd:

  2.23607 × 32 ≈ 71.55 ≈ 72 --- 32nds of an inch

  72/32 = 2 1/4 . . . . the closest mark on an inch ruler graduated in 32nds

__

For a ruler graduated in millimeters, you can find the closest millimeter in the same way. There are 25.4 mm to the inch.

  2.23607 in × 25.4 mm/in ≈ 56.80 mm ≈ 57 mm

  57 mm = 5.7 cm . . . closest mark on metric scale

__

When we check the error, we find the metric mark is closer than the inch mark.

  5.7 cm ≈ 2.24409 in . . . . error of 0.00802 in

  2 1/2 in = 2.25000 in . . . error of 0.01393 in

What is the equation of a circle centered at the origin with radius 20?
Colt1911 [192]
We know that
the equation of a circle is
(x-h)²+(y-k)²=r²
where 
(h,k)-----> is the center
r--------> is the radius

is the center is the point (0,0) and radius  r=20
then
(h,k) is (0,0)

(x-0)²+(y-0)²=20²---------> (x)²+(y)²=400


the answer is
the option D.)  x2 + y2 = 400

According to the empirical rule, if the data form a bell-shaped normal distribution, __________ of the observations will fall wi
Kaylis [27]

Answer:

95%

Step-by-step explanation:

The empirical rule states that if data follows normal distribution then the percentage of observations falls within one, two and three standard deviation around the mean are

i) 68% falls within one standard deviation

ii) 95% falls within two standard deviation

iii) 99.7% falls within three standard deviation.

Hence 95% of the observations will fall within two standard deviations around the mean if the data follows normal distribution.
