How do I estimate 542,817

Mathematics
1 answer:
ioda2 years ago
4 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Much depends on how accurate an estimate you want.

If "to the nearest hundred" would be acceptable (it's a lot of work),

Round off 542817 to 542820 and 27398 to 2740.  Then you'd want to subtract 2740 from 542820.  (Again, it's a lot of work.)

Otherwise round off to the nearest thousand:  543000 - 27000.

Or go to the nearest ten thousand:  540,000 - 30,000 = 510,000 (estimate)

Find two geometric means between 5 and 135
aniked [119]
Answer:

We are effectively looking for a and b such that 5, a, b, 135 is a geometric sequence.

This sequence has common ratio <span><span>3<span>√<span>1355</span></span></span>=3</span>, hence <span>a=15</span> and <span>b=45</span>

Explanation:

In a geometric sequence, each intermediate term is the geometric mean of the term before it and the term after it.

So we want to find a and b such that 5, a, b, 135 is a geometric sequence.

If the common ratio is r then:

<span><span>a=5r</span><span>b=ar=5<span>r2</span></span><span>135=br=5<span>r3</span></span></span>

Hence <span><span>r3</span>=<span>1355</span>=27</span>, so <span>r=<span>3<span>√27</span></span>=3</span>

Then <span>a=5r=15</span> and <span>b=ar=15⋅3=45</span>
