Answer:

\boxed{2.29}

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of AB is 3 units.

The length of CD is \sqrt{3} units.

D is the mid-point of points A and B.

AD is half of AB.

\frac{3}{2} =1.5

Apply Pythagorean theorem to solve for length of AC.

c=\sqrt{a^2 +b^2 }

The hypotenuse is length AC.

c=\sqrt{1.5^2 +(\sqrt{3}) ^2 }

c=\sqrt{2.25+3 }

c=\sqrt{5.25}

c= 2.291288...

Answer:

\boxed{AC = 2.3}

Step-by-step explanation:

AD = BD  (CD bisects AB means that it divides the line into two equal parts)

So,

AD = BD = AB/2

So,

AD = 3/2

AD = 1.5

<u><em>Now, Finding AC using Pythagorean Theorem:</em></u>

c^2 = a^2+b^2

Where c is hypotenuse (AC), a is base (AD) and b is perpendicular (CD)

AC^2= (1.5)^2+(\sqrt{3} )^2

AC^2 = 2.25 + 3

AC^2 = 5.25

Taking sqrt on both sides

AC = 2.3

Which is the best estimate of 5 5/6 - (1 1/4 + 3 7/8)​
pantera1 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"Best estimate' doesn't happen automaticallly, because you have to define "best" in this context.  We could merely round all numbers and work with the results:  

For example, starting with the work inside parentheses, we have:

5 5/6 - (1 + 4) = 5 5/6 - 5.  We must round 5 5/6 up to 6.  Then the "best estimate' is 6 - 5, or just 1.
