Answer: Her estimation is not reasonabl.fdgfdgfdgfd

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

38% of 63.

He estimated 38% as 40%

and

63 is estimated as 70.

and then he multiplied 70 by 0.4 and get 28.

But her estimation is not reasonable.

63  must be estimated as 60 instead of 70.

We always check the last digit, if is more than 5, then it is rounded off to next digit.

If the last digit is less than 5, then it is rounded off to that digit itself.

So, In case of 63, last digit is 3 which is less than 5 so, it will becomes 60.

So, 40% of 60 is given by

\dfrac{40}{100}\times 60\\\\=0.4\times 60\\\\=24

Hence, her estimation is not reasonable.

Answer:

her answer is not reasonable

Step-by-step explanation:

her rounding 38 to 40 is correct

her rounding 63 to 70 is incorrect because it is 4 and below

so it would be rounded to 60 not 70.

We have:

P=120\ in\\\\l=w+10

Substitute

2(w+10+w)=120\\\\2(2w+10)=120\ \ \ \ |:2\\\\2w+10=60\ \ \ \ |-10\\\\2w=50\ \ \ \ |:2\\\\w=25\\\\l=25+10=35

Ann started reading at 4:00 and finished at 4:20 p.M. Through what fraction of a circle did the minute hand turn?
nikitadnepr [17]

Answer:

1/3

Step-by-step explanation:

Turned 20 minutes, so the minute hand turned 20 times per hour

There are 60 minutes in 1 hour, so the minute hand turns 60 times per hour

Therefore, the fraction is 20/60, simplified to 1/3

4. find the real number roots. sqrt-0.25
e-lub [12.9K]

Given is square root of a negative real number, i.e. \sqrt{-0.25}

When we find square root of positive real numbers, we get Real answers.

But when we find square root of negative real numbers, we get Imaginary answers. To solve them, we can split the given negative number into product of -1 and the number itself but with positive sign. e.g. -4 = -1 x 4.

For square root of -1, we use english letter 'i' called Imaginary unit i.e. \sqrt{-1} = i

Now we can use -0.25 = -1 x 0.25

\sqrt{-0.25} =\sqrt{-1*0.25} \\\\ \sqrt{-0.25} =\sqrt{-1}*\sqrt{0.25} \\\\ \sqrt{-0.25} =i*0.5 \\\\ \sqrt{-0.25} =0.5i

Hence, "0.5i" is the final answer.

PLEASE HELP!!! I WILL RATE BRAINLIEST TO THE FASTEST AND CORRECT ANSWER!!!
Andrej [43]
Not easy:

- 4 < x^4 + 4x^2 ---> 0 < x^4+4x^2+4 = (x^2+2)^2, so it is always positive. Always satisfied. Curious ...

Now the other one:

x^4+4x^2<21 --> x^4+4x^2-21 < 0 --> (x^2+2)^2 - 25 < 0

(x^2+2)^2<25 ->>> x^2+2 < 5 ---> x^2 <3,

So -sqrt(3)<x<sqrt(3) is the answer! Brainliest?

What is 4 multiplied by 4/6
yawa3891 [41]
Okay,

1. Multiply 4 x 4.

2. Then Since 4 x 4 is 16 it would be 16 over 6 ( \frac{16}{6} )

3. Then Simplify, 6 can go into 16 twice, being 12.

4. There is 4 left over, so put 4 over 6 ( \frac{4}{6} )

5. Finally, simplify again, 4 can be divided by 2, so can 6, make it 2 over 3 ( \frac{2}{3} )

Answer: 12 and 2 over 3 (12  \frac{2}{3} )

**Hope I Helped!**
