Answer:

The estimate is - 13 and the actual product is - 13.175.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to first estimate the product of 3\frac{2}{5} and -3\frac{7}{8} rounded to the nearest half.

Now, 3\frac{2}{5} \times (-3\frac{7}{8} )

=\frac{17}{5} \times(-\frac{31}{8} )

= -\frac{527}{40}

= - 13.175

= - 13 (Rounded to the nearest half}

Therefore, the estimate is - 13 and the actual product is - 13.175. (Answer)

Note: Rounded to the nearest half means make twice the number then round it to the nearest integer and then divide it by 2.

At the rate of 15 per 6 oz. bar of chocolate, how much would a pound
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

We know there are 16 oz in a pound

We can use ratios

15             x

-----  = ----------

6 oz       16 oz

Using cross products

15 * 16 = 6x

240 = 6x

divide by 6

240/6 = 6x/6

40 =x

Please help! Its for my big test tomorrow!
Travka [436]

Answer:

# The solution x = -5

# The solution is x = 1

# The solution is x = 6.4

# The solution is x = 4

# The solution is 1.7427

# The solution is 0.190757

Step-by-step explanation:

* Lets revise some rules of the exponents and the logarithmic equation

# Exponent rules:

1- b^m  ×  b^n  =  b^(m + n) ⇒ in multiplication if they have same base

  we add  the power

2- b^m  ÷  b^n =  b^(m – n) ⇒  in division if they have same base we

   subtract  the power

3- (b^m)^n = b^(mn) ⇒ if we have power over power we multiply

   them

4- a^m × b^m = (ab)^m ⇒ if we multiply different bases with same  

   power then we multiply them ad put over the answer the power

5- b^(-m) = 1/(b^m)  (for all nonzero real numbers b) ⇒ If we have

   negative power we reciprocal the base to get positive power

6- If  a^m  =  a^n  ,  then  m  =  n ⇒ equal bases get equal powers

7- If  a^m  =  b^m  ,  then  a  =  b    or    m  =  0

# Logarithmic rules:

1- log_{a}b=n-----a^{n}=b

2- loga_{1}=0---log_{a}a=1---ln(e)=1

3- log_{a}q+log_{a}p=log_{a}qp

4- log_{a}q-log_{a}p=log_{a}\frac{q}{p}

5- log_{a}q^{n}=nlog_{a}q

* Now lets solve the problems

# 3^{x+1}=9^{x+3}

- Change the base 9 to 3²

∴ 9^{x+3}=3^{2(x+3)}=3^{2x+6}

∴ 3^{x+1}=3^{2x+6}

- Same bases have equal powers

∴ x + 1 = 2x + 6 ⇒ subtract x and 6 from both sides

∴ 1 - 6 = 2x - x

∴ -5 = x

* The solution x = -5

# ㏒(9x - 2) = ㏒(4x + 3)

- If ㏒(a) = ㏒(b), then a = b

∴ 9x - 2 = 4x + 3 ⇒ subtract 4x from both sides and add 2 to both sides

∴ 5x = 5 ⇒ divide both sides by 5

∴ x = 1

* The solution is x = 1

# log_{6}(5x+4)=2

- Use the 1st rule in the logarithmic equation

∴ 6² = 5x + 4

∴ 36 = 5x + 4 ⇒ subtract 4 from both sides

∴ 32 = 5x ⇒ divide both sides by 5

∴ 6.4 = x

* The solution is x = 6.4

# log_{2}x+log_{2}(x-3)=2

- Use the rule 3 in the logarithmic equation

∴ log_{2}x(x-3)=2

- Use the 1st rule in the logarithmic equation

∴ 2² = x(x - 3) ⇒ simplify

∴ 4 = x² - 3x ⇒ subtract 4 from both sides

∴ x² - 3x - 4 = 0 ⇒ factorize it into two brackets

∴ (x - 4)(x + 1) = 0 ⇒ equate each bract by 0

∴ x - 4 = 0 ⇒ add 4 to both sides

∴ x = 4

OR

∵ x + 1 = 0 ⇒ subtract 1 from both sides

∴ x = -1

- We will reject this answer because when we substitute the value

 of x in the given equation we will find log_{2}(-1) and this

 value is undefined, there is no logarithm for negative number

* The solution is x = 4

# log_{4}11.2=x

- You can use the calculator directly to find x

∴ x = 1.7427

* The solution is 1.7427

# 2e^{8x}=9.2 ⇒ divide the both sides by 2

∴ e^{8x}=4.6

- Insert ln for both sides

∴ lne^{8x}=ln(4.6)

- Use the rule ln(e^{n})=nln(e) ⇒ ln(e) = 1

∴ 8x = ln(4.6) ⇒ divide both sides by 8

∴ x = ln(4.6)/8 = 0.190757

* The solution is 0.190757

What is the volume of a hemisphere with a radius of 2.1 m, rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter?
Art [367]

Answer:

The volume of hemisphere is <u>19.4 cubic meter</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

A hemisphere is with a radius of 2.1 m.

Now, to find the hemisphere volume with radius 2.1 m.

Radius\ (r) = 2.1 m.

So, we put formula to get the volume of hemisphere:

Volume=\frac{2}{3} \pi r^3\ \ \ \ \ (Taking\ the\ value\ of\ \pi =3.14)\\\\Volume=\frac{2}{3} \times 3.14\times 2.1^3\\\\Volume=\frac{2}{3} \times 3.14\times 9.26\\\\Volume=19.384\ cubic\ meter.

<u><em>Hence, the rounded to the nearest tenth of a cubic meter is 19.4 cubic meter.</em></u>

Therefore, the volume of hemisphere is 19.4 cubic meter.

The ice cream man just ended his shift for the day. Let 1/2x^2 6/11x + 8 represent the amount of chocolate ice cream bars he sol
saveliy_v [14]

Answer:

A and D

Step-by-step explanation:

Total ice cream bars sold = sum of chocolate sold , vanilla and strawberry ice-creams sold.

=(1/2)x2 + (6/11)x + 8 + (5/9)x2 + (2/3) +(1/3)x2 + 4x +(4/3) (Given in the question)

=(25/18)x2 + (50/11)x + 10 (Adding terms corresponding to x2,x ,constant respectively)

Difference in chocolate and strawberry bars =[ (1/2)x2 + (6/11)x + 8] - [(1/3)x2 + 4x +(4/3)]

= (1/6)x2 - (38/11)x +(20/3)

So, the correct options are A and D
