Round 314550 to 1 significant figure

2 answers:

8 0

300000 all you had to do was round the number down after the 1 significant figure

you round down with
1,2,3,4

and round up with
5,6,7,8,9

so if it asked for 78453
to 2 significant figures you count the numbers and round after that
so 78|453 and since 4 is the next number and it is less that 5 we round down which means it becomes 78000 with is lower than 78453

but if we had 0.0247
and it asked for this number to 2 significant figures all you need to do is count the SIGNIFICANT figures significant means anything with value so that is 1,2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10.... 0 has no value therefore we ignore 0 and start counting at the first figure larger than 0
if we go back to 0.0247 that would be the 2 so 2 significant figure of 0.0247 would equal
0.024|7
7 is larger than 5 so we round up to
0.025
tadaa i hope that helped

What is the radius of a sphere if its surface area is 2,122.64 square inches? (Use 3.14 for π.) 11 in. 13 in. 121 in. 169 in.

crimeas [40]

To solve this, we are going to use the surface are of a sphere formula: $A=4 \pi r^2$
where
$A$ is the surface area of the sphere
$r$ is the radius of the sphere

We know for our problem that $A=2122.64$ and $\pi =3.14$ , so lets replace those vales in our formula:
$A=4 \pi r^2$
$2122.64=4(3.14)r^2$
$2122.64=12.56r^2$
Now, we just need to solve our equation for $r$ :
$\frac{2122.64}{12.56} =r^2$
$r^2=\frac{2122.64}{12.56}$
$r^2=169$
$r=+or- \sqrt{169}$
$r=13$ or $r=13$
Since the radius of a sphere cannot be a negative number, $r=13$ .

We can conclude that the radius of a sphere with surface area <span>2,122.64 </span> $in^2$ is 13 in.

Machine A makes 12.75 ounces of popcorn in 3 minutes. Machine B makes 18 ounces of popcorn in 4 minutes. If each machine makes p

melamori03 [73]

Answer: Machine A makes popcorn at a rate of 4.25 ozs per minute (12.75oz/3min).

Machine B makes popcorn at a rate of 4.5 ozs per minute (18oz/4min).

Machine A will make 4.25oz/min * 10minutes = 42.5oz of popcorn after 10 minutes

Machine B will make 4.5oz/min * 10 minutes = 45oz of popcorn after 10 minutes

After 10 minutes there will be a total of 42.5oz (Machine A) +45oz (Machine B) = 87.5oz.

So the answer is: Yes there will be (more than) enough popcorn if both machines make popcorn for 10 minutes.

If the question is wondering how many 9oz bags they can fill: 87.5oz/9oz per bag = 9.7222 bags. The machines can fill 9, 9oz, bags with some popcorn leftover.
