3.44. The number of 4.3 isn’t multipled by a number greater than one, it becomes smaller

Answer:

3.44

Step-by-step explanation:

When multiplying decimals, multiply them like they are normal numbers. Then, put the decimal dot in the correct place. You can find the correct place to put the dot through two methods.

1) estimate the sum. 4.3 rounds to 4. 0.8 rounds to 1.

4*1=4

43*8=344

Since the estimate is 4, the decimal should go in between the 3 and 4, so the answer is 3.44

2)find how many places from the one digit the decimal point is.

in 4.3, the decimal point is 1 place to the right of the ones digit.

in 0.8, the decimal point is 1 place to the right of the ones digit

both are one place to the right. Thus, 1+1=2 so you will need to move the decimal point 2 times to the left of 43*8, which is 344.

344 => 3.44

The parabola opens upward has x = 2 as an axis of symmetry and contains the non -vertex points (1, 9) and (4, 27) write the equa

Sedaia [141]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = a(x - h)² + k - vertex form of the equation of the parabola with vertex (h, k)

"the parabola opens upward" means: a>0

"the parabola has x = 2 as an axis of symmetry" means: h = 2

so f(x) = a(x - 2)² + k

"the parabola contains the point (1, 9)" means:

9 = a(1 - 2)² + k

9 = a(-1)² + k

9 = a + k

k = 9 - a

"the parabola contains the point (4, 27)" means:

27 = a(4 - 2)² + k

so:

27 = a(2)² + 9 - a

27 = 4a + 9 - a

3a = 18

a = 6

and k = 9 - 6 = 3

Therefore the vertex form for this parabola is:

The diagram below shows the rectangle PLUM.

Illusion [34]

Answer:

Area of rectangle PLUM = 75.00 square units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since diagonal of rectangle divides the rectangle into two equal triangles,

Therefore, area of the rectangle PLUM = 2× area of triangle PLM

By the mean proportional theorem,

In ΔPLM,

AP² = AM × AL

6² = AM × 8

AM = $\frac{36}{8}$

AM = 4.5 units

Area of PLM = $\frac{1}{2}(\text{Base})(\text{height})$

= $\frac{1}{2}(ML)(AP)$

= $\frac{1}{2}(8 + 4.5)(6)$

= 12.5 × 3

= 37.5 units²

Now area of rectangle PLUM = 2×37.5 = 75 units²

Therefore, area of the rectangle is 75.00 square units.

" A projectile is launched in the air according to the equation h(t)= -16t^2 + 125t + 5. At what time does the projectile land?"

Vlad1618 [11]

"according to the equation is a sloppy description, and announces that whoever said it or wrote it doesn't really have a clue to what the equation means or what it's good for.

h (t) is the HEIGHT of the projectile above the ground at any time 't'. When the projectile hits the ground, h (t) is zero. Write that ! Then you have a quadratic equation that you can easily solve for 't'.
