How many significant digits are there in 17.0

Mathematics
1 answer:
svet-max [94.6K]3 years ago
4 0
The answer is three significant figures. The 1 and the 7 are both significant, because they are non-zero quantities.
This is where significant figures gets a little more complicated, because if a zero is used as a placeholder (i.e. 0.00027 cm) then it is insignificant.
But in the case above, the zero isn't being used as a placeholder, and thus, is significant.

If 1/6 of the pan was left and there were 2 pieces left you just need to set 1/6 equal to 2/some number, this allows you to say that 1/6=2/x --> x/6=2-->x=12. My explanation might be a little poor since this becomes fairly fundamental later on but hopefully it helps.

The pyramid shown has a square base that is 12 inches on each side. It has a surface area of 336 square inches. What is the slan
blagie [28]
Let b and h represent the length of the side of the base and the slant height, respectively. Then the total surface area is
  A = b² + 4*(1/2)bh
  A = b² +2bh

Substituting the given numbers, you have
  336 = 12² +2·12·h
  192 = 24h . . . . . . . . . subtract 12² = 144
  8 = h . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 24

The slant height is 8 inches.
