You are attempting to estimate the number of protester marching through the city

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  1000

Step-by-step explanation:

If the number of protesters per minute remains a constant, then you could write the proportion ...

  p/12 = 177/2.1

Multiplying by 12 gives ...

  p = 12(177/2.1) ≈ 1011.4

Here, minutes are given to 2 significant figures, and the initial count is given to 3 significant figures. The best you can hope for is that your estimate is good to 3 significant figures:

 1010 protesters

It is probably sufficient to report the number to 2 significant figures*:

  1000 protesters

_____

* Unfortunately, with a number like 1000, the only way you can tell it has 2 significant figures is to report it as 1.0×10³ or 10. hundreds. The trailing zeros are usually not considered significant.

Answer:

  B.  Square

Step-by-step explanation:

When in doubt, it can help to plot the points on a graph.

__

By looking at the coordinate values, you see that the first two points have the same y-coordinate (0) and the other two points have the same y-coordinate (-4). These points are on horizontal lines that are 4 units apart.

Looking at the x-coordinates, you see that one pair of points has x-coordinates 4, and the other pair has x-coordinates 8. That is, these pairs of points are on vertical lines that are 4 units apart.

Vertical and horizontal lines are at right angles to each other. That means the figure must be a rectangle or square. The lengths of the sides are all 4 units, so the figure is a square.
