The pattern is a 3 is added every time so to find the next two numbers add 1 and then another 1.

Estimate the product of 126.12 and 2.2.

kifflom [539]

Product means the answer/result to a multiplication problem

Estimate means to form an approximation/ rough guess

126.12 x 2.2 = 277.464

This answer, 277.464, is the exact product

Its wanting us to find the estimate (there could be possible estimates, depending on what the instructions is asking for):

- 277
- 280
- 300

A submarine travels 6.6 km due West from its base and then turns and travels due South for 3.9

Answer:

$7.7$ km

Step-by-step explanation:

The submarine's path from its base forms a right triangle when its final position is "connected" to the base. We know that the right triangle has legs of $6.6$ km and $3.9$ km, and we need to find the length of its hypotenuse. To do so, we can use the Pythagorean Theorem, which states that in a right triangle, $a^{2}+b^{2} =c^{2}$ , where $a$ and $b$ are the lengths of the triangle's legs and $c$ is the length of the triangle's hypotenuse. In this case, we know what $a$ and $b$ are, and we need to solve for c, so after substituting the given values of $a$ and $b$ into $a^{2}+b^{2} =c^{2}$ to solve for c, we get:

$a^{2}+b^{2} =c^{2}$

$6.6^{2} +3.9^{2} =c^{2}$ (Substitute $a=6.6$ and $b=3.9$ into the equation)

$43.56+15.21=c^{2}$ (Evaluate the squares on the LHS)

$58.77=c^{2}$ (Simplify the LHS)

$c^{2}=58.77$ (Symmetric Property of Equality)

$\sqrt{c^{2} } =\sqrt{58.77}$ (Take the square root of both sides of the equation)

$c=7.7,c=-7.7$ (Simplify)

$c=-7.7$ is an extraneous solution because you can't have negative distance, if that makes sense, so therefore, the submarine is approximately $7.7$ km away from its base. Hope this helps!
