Consider the number 50,540.We have to determine the significant figure.
Significant figures are the digits that carry meaning contributing to its measurement resolution. It excludes the leading and trailing zeroes.
The first zero in the 50 is considered to be a significant number, while the second zero (in the 540) is not significant number.
The second zero is a called a placeholder zero. It can be removed by converting the number into scientific notation.
Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello there!
So, let's start off with the first one:
A) 60% of One - half x
I believe a couple of possible equations would be: 0.60*1/2x or 0.60*0.5x. 1/2 and 0.5 both equal half of a number. The 0.60 would equal 60%. I'll plug 10 into x of both equations to see what I come up with:
First Equation:
1/2 * 10/1 = 10/2 or 5.
0.60 * 5 = 3
Second Equation:
0.5 * 10 = 5
0.60 * 5 = 3
So they both come up with the same answer, so that makes them both equal, which makes them both possible equations.
B) 7 times z reduced by a third of the product
7z - 1/3 seems like a good equation. Let me plug in 5 for z to solve:
7 * 5 = 35
Convert 35/1 into 105/3 by multiplying both sides by 3
105/3 - 1/3 = 104/3 (approx. 34.7)
C) Three-fourths of V subtracted from 6 times two-ninths
A good equation for this would probably be (6*2/9)-3/4v. I'll plug 5 into v to show how we would solve the equation:
6/1 * 2/9 = 12/9 or 1 1/3.
3/4 * 5/1 = 15/4 or 3 3/4.
(Use the fractions 16/12 and 45/12 as 16/12 = 12/9 and 15/4 = 45/12)
16/12 - 45/12 = -29/12 or −<span>2 <span>5/12</span></span>
D) Sum of 2x, (2/3 + 5) and 11-x
I think the right equation for this would be 2x + (2/3 + 5) + 11-x. Plug in 3 for x to solve:
(Use 15/3 when adding 2/3 and 5 because 5 = 15/3)
2/3 + 15/3 = 17/3 or 5 2/3
2 * 3 = 6
11 - 3 = 8
(Use 18/3 and 24/3 when adding up 6 + 5 2/3 + 8 as 6 = 18/3 and 8 = 24/3
17/3 + 18/3 + 24/3 = 59/3 or 19 2/3
Sorry if this confused you xD but, basically, the possible equations are as follows:
1 = 0.60*1/2x or 0.60*0.5x
2 = 7z - 1/3
3 = <span>(6*2/9)-3/4v
</span>4 = 2x + (2/3 + 5) + 11-x
I hope this helped! If not, I'm very sorry. Algebra isn't my strong suit ^.^'
Download photomath it will give u the answer
6 5/6 is your answer
6 can go into 41, 6 times giving you 36. Then you subtract 41 and 36 which will give you the remaining number which is 5. You then take the 5 and out it over 6.
