The smaller the value of the least increment, the more precise a number is.

Length measured to the nearest 1/8 inch will be more precisely specified than length measured to the nearest 1/4 inch.

_____

In general, precision has little to do with accuracy—how close the measured value is to the actual value. A measurement can be very precise, but just plain wrong. (Many electronic instruments have resolution (precision) that exceeds their accuracy. That is, one or two (or more) of the least-significant displayed digits may be in error.)

Answer:

1/8

Step-by-step explanation:

the increments are smaller ad smaller is more precise. If i have a dot every 4 spaces like below, that represents the quarters.

.   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .   .

If i have it every eighth like below, that is the eights.

. . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . .

So, if you had to measure something and had two rulers, 1/4in and 1/8in, and you had to round your answer to the nearest mark, you would use the 1/8 because the marks are closer together and therefore, more precise because the mark is more likely to land on a ark and if its in between, your answer is still close.

<span>Simplifying (5b + -9) + -3(8 + -2b) = 0 Reorder the terms: (-9 + 5b) + -3(8 + -2b) = 0 Remove parenthesis around (-9 + 5b) -9 + 5b + -3(8 + -2b) = 0 -9 + 5b + (8 * -3 + -2b * -3) = 0 -9 + 5b + (-24 + 6b) = 0 Reorder the terms: -9 + -24 + 5b + 6b = 0 Combine like terms: -9 + -24 = -33 -33 + 5b + 6b = 0 Combine like terms: 5b + 6b = 11b -33 + 11b = 0 Solving -33 + 11b = 0 Solving for variable 'b'. Move all terms containing b to the left, all other terms to the right. Add '33' to each side of the equation. -33 + 33 + 11b = 0 + 33 Combine like terms: -33 + 33 = 0 0 + 11b = 0 + 33 11b = 0 + 33 Combine like terms: 0 + 33 = 33 11b = 33</span>

Answer:

5 folders and 5 pens = yes

6 pens and 6 erasers = yes

1 pen and 4 notebooks = no

3 folders and 7 erasers = no

4 folders and 2 notebooks = yes

Step-by-step explanation:

Max total = $10

(5 folders x 1.29) + (5 pens x 0.70)

6.45 + 3.50 = 9.95

(6 pens x 0.70) + (6 erasers x 0.89)

4.20 + 5.34 = 9.54

(1 pen × 0.70) + (4 notebooks × 2.35)

0.70 + 9.40 = 10.10

(3 folders × 1.29) + (7 erasers × 0.89)

3.98 + 6.23 = 10.21

(4 folders × 1.29) + (2 notebooks × 2.35)

5.16 + 4.70 = 9.86
