At first glance, it seems like a good estimate; big numbers make bigger number.
But, this is multiplication, which means big numbers will make an extraordinarily big number, in proportion to the numbers themselves.
If you round 31 3/4 up to 32, you can multiply that by 50. To make the estimate easier, multiply 50 by 2,
50 x 2 = 100
Take the zeros off 50 and 30 to make this a bit simpler, and multiply 5 by 3,
5 x 3 = 15
Add each of the zeros you took off to the 15 to make 1500 (1 zero was taken off 50, and 1 off of 30),
And then add 1500 to that other 100
1500 + 100 = 1600
A good estimate for 50 x 31 3/4 would be 1600, not 800.
Therefore,
No. Brenda's estimate of 800 is NOT a good estimate.
Answer:
-18
Step-by-step explanation:
x=2 so,
-9(2) = -18

Answer:
x = 61
Step-by-step explanation:
The angle above the line n adjacent to 2x - 6 is (x + 3) alternate angle.
Adjacent angles are supplementary, thus
2x - 6 + x + 3 = 180, that is
3x - 3 = 180 ( add 3 to both sides )
3x = 183 ( divide both sides by 3 )
x = 61
Answer:
x=
1/2
and y=3
Step-by-step explanation:
Let's solve your system by substitution.
y=10x−2;2x+y=4
Step: Solvey=10x−2for y:
y=10x−2
Step: Substitute10x−2foryin2x+y=4:
2x+y=4
2x+10x−2=4
12x−2=4(Simplify both sides of the equation)
12x−2+2=4+2(Add 2 to both sides)
12x=6
