Round off 3. 55 to one significant figure

Anika [276]

Answer:

3.6

Step-by-step explanation:

We must first clarify how a number is rounded.

To round a number to unity we have to look at the first number after the comma.

If this number is less than 5 (1, 2, 3, 4) we should not do anything, but if that number is 5 or greater (5, 6, 7, 8, 9) we must add a unit to the number.

That is to say:

<5 do nothing

=> 5 round to the next number (+1)

So in the case of 3.55 it would be.

3.55 = 3.6

Type the solution.y=–3x–7y=x–3

Andrej [43]

Answer:

(x,y)=(-1,-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

y=–3x–7

y=x–3

(y=)-3x-7=x-3

-3x-x=-3+7

-4x=4

x=4/(-4)

x=-1

y=x-3

y=-1-3

y=-4

(x,y)=(-1,-4)

A company is producing two types of ski goggles. Thirty percent of the production is of type A, and the rest is of type B. Five

exis [7]

Answer:

$\dfrac{14}{29}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let P(A) be the probability that goggle of type A is manufactured

P(B) be the probability that goggle of type B is manufactured

P(E) be the probability that a goggle is returned within 10 days of its purchase.

According to the question,

P(A) = 30%

P(B) = 70%

P(E/A) is the probability that a goggle is returned within 10 days of its purchase given that it was of type A.

P(E/B) is the probability that a goggle is returned within 10 days of its purchase given that it was of type B.

$P(A \cap E)$ will be the probability that a goggle is of type A and is returned within 10 days of its purchase.

$P(B \cap E)$ will be the probability that a goggle is of type B and is returned within 10 days of its purchase.

$P(E \cap A) = P(A) \times P(E/A)$

$P(E \cap A) = \dfrac{30}{100} \times \dfrac{5}{100}\\\Rightarrow P(E \cap A) = 1.5 \%$

$P(E \cap B) = P(B) \times P(E/B)$

$P(E \cap B) = \dfrac{70}{100} \times \dfrac{2}{100}\\\Rightarrow P(E \cap B) = 1.4 \%$

$P(E) = 1.5 \% + 1.4 \% \\P(E) = 2.9\%$

If a goggle is returned within 10 days of its purchase, probability that it was of type B:

$P(B/E) = \dfrac{P(E \cap B)}{P(E)}$

$\Rightarrow \dfrac{1.4 \%}{2.9\%}\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{14}{29}$

So, the required probability is $\dfrac{14}{29}.$
