How does estimating an addition or subtraction problem help you know if an answer is reasonable?

Mathematics

Answer:

It helps you know if the answer is reasonable because when you do the work and get your answer, you can check if it is close to your estimate, and if it is, it is most likely correct. On the other hand if it is not close to the estimate it is most likely wrong, unless you estimated incorrectly.

Step-by-step explanation:

Zarrin [17]
Part 1) <span>Create a diagram that shows Kamila’s rectangular lawn and the gravel border. Assign variables to any unknown sides and label the diagram

see the attached figure  

Part 2)</span><span>Use your diagram to determine how many square feet of the gravel border will surround the lawn

area of the border=[162*92]-[150*80]----> 14904-12000-----> 2904 ft</span>²

Part 3) <span>Kamila decided that the depth of the gravel needs to be 2 inches. What is the total volume of gravel needed for the border?

we know that
1 ft-------> 12 in
 x--------> 2 in
x=2/12------> x=0.17 ft

volume of gravel needed=area of the border*deep of the gravel
</span>volume of gravel needed=2904*0.17----> 493.68 ft³
<span>
Part 4)</span><span>A large bag of colored rock contains a cubic yard and costs $30. What is the total cost of the rocks needed for the border?
</span>
1 yd³--------> 27 ft³
x---------> 493.68 ft³
x=493.68/27-----> 18.28 yd³

if 1 yd³----------> cost $30
 18.28 yd³------> x
x=18.28*30------> x=$548.53

the answer Part 4) is 
$548.53

A line has the following equation: 5x - 3y = 2
Nesterboy [21]

Answer: the slope is 5/3

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope intercept form represents the equation of a straight line. It is expressed as

y = mx + c

Where

m = slope

c = intercept

The given equation is 5x - 3y = 2

Rearranging it so that it will conform to the slope intercept form of equation, it becomes

3y = 5x - 2

y = 5x/3 - 2/3

Comparing with the slope intercept equation,

Slope, m = 5/3

If two lines are parallel, it means that they have the same slope. It means that the slope of the line parallel to the given line is 5/3

Answer:

(A

Step-by-step explanation:

The model shows 1/2 because half of the rectangle is colored. Think about it. 5/10 is also 1/2 because 5 is half of 10.

So, 1/2 is equivalent to 5/10.
