Answer:

The best estimate for the value of the given expression is -2 1/2. Correct: Second alternative

Explanation:

<u>Estimate and Number Rounding</u>

There are situations where numbers must be estimated according to certain rules. If we have a number and we need a good approximate to it, we can use rounding to the required number of decimals.

The question requires to find the best estimate for the operation:

\displaystyle \left(\frac{34}{8}-\frac{16}{3}\right)-\frac{14}{9}

We calculate the decimal value of the expression:

\displaystyle \left(\frac{34}{8}-\frac{16}{3}\right)-\frac{14}{9}=(4.25-5.33)-1.56=-2.64

The first alternative is incorrect. It's a good approximation because it's close to the number, but the next alternative is the closest of all choices.

The second alternative Is correct. The value of -2 1/2 is -2.5. The number -2.64 is closer to -2.5 than to -3 which is the alternative A.

The third alternative Is incorrect. 7 is a positive number and it's not even close to -2.64

The last alternative Is incorrect. 7 1/2 = 7.5 is a positive number and it's not even close to -2.64

Find an equation of the line passing through the pair of points (2,3) and (5,9). Write the equation in the form Ax + By = C.
8090 [49]

Answer:

- 2x +  y  = - 1 , so the B is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

+ Because of "the line passing through the pair of points (2,3) and (5,9)", that means the line has the equation y = ax + b where a = (9-3)/(5-2)= 6/3= 2

+ So the equation is y = 2x + b.

+ Then we replace x= 2 and y= 3 into y = 2x + b for finding  like:

3 = 2*2 + b or 3 = 4 + b, so we find b = 3 - 4 = - 1.

+ The equation of this line is y = 2x - 1 or in the form:

                                  2x - y - 1 = 0 (or -2x + y = -1)

Have a good day!

The locations, given in polar coordinates, for two ships are (8 mi, 63º) and (8 mi, 123º). Find the distance between the two shi
Anna35 [415]
We know that

The arrangement forms an isosceles triangle with equal legs of 8 miles.
The angle between the legs is equal to

123-63=60°

 Therefore, the other two angles are
Angles = (180-60)/2 = 120/2 = 60°
It can, therefore, be noted that all angles are equal and thus the resulting triangle is actually an equilateral triangle and thus all the sides are equal.

Hence
the answer is
the distance between the two ships is 8 miles apart

alternative Method
Applying the law of cosines
<span>c²=a²+b²-2*a*b*cos C
</span>where
a=8 miles
b=8 miles
C is the angle between the legs-------> 123-63------> 60 degrees
c is the distance between the two ships
so
c²=8²+8²-2*8*8*cos 60------> c²=64-------> c=√64------> c=8 miles

Three times a number minus thirty-two
lbvjy [14]

Answer:

3n−32=7n+28

n=-15

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's solve your equation step-by-step.

3n−32=7n+28

Step 1: Subtract 7n from both sides.

3n−32−7n=7n+28−7n

−4n−32=28

Step 2: Add 32 to both sides.

−4n−32+32=28+32

−4n=60

Step 3: Divide both sides by -4.

−4n/−4=60/−4

n=−15
