What is the value of x? A.31 B.41 C.29 D.60

Explain why it is important to line up decimal points when you are adding and subtracting decimals. Use the problem 6.32 – 0.5 i

Mazyrski [523]

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

When performing addition and subtraction of decimals, it is important to arrange the numbers being added or subtracted such that the decimal points are in line. This is particularly important so that the place value of the numbers are in accord.

To simplify, when then decimals are in line, then the tenth value of the first number will be added to the tenth value of the second. Without this arrangement, one might be adding the hundredth placed value to the tenth or unit value which is mathematically incorrect and will yield a wrong result.

For instance :

6.32 - 0.5

Here, when the decimal point of each number is in line, the tenth placed value of the first number (3) matches the tenth placed number of the second number (5) and all others also fall in place automatically.

A person stands 10 meters east of an intersection and watches a car driving towards the intersection from the north at 13 meters

In-s [12.5K]

Answer:

Therefore the rate change of distance between the car and the person at the instant, the car is 24 m from the intersection is 12 m/s.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that,

A person stand 10 meters east of an intersection and watches a car driving towards the intersection from the north at 13 m/s.

From Pythagorean Theorem,

(The distance between car and person)²= (The distance of the car from intersection)²+ (The distance of the person from intersection)²+

Assume that the distance of the car from the intersection and from the person be x and y at any time t respectively.

∴y²= x²+10²

$\Rightarrow y=\sqrt{x^2+100}$

Differentiating with respect to t

$\frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{1}{2\sqrt{x^2+100}}. 2x\frac{dx}{dt}$

$\Rightarrow \frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+100}}. \frac{dx}{dt}$

Since the car driving towards the intersection at 13 m/s.

so, $\frac{dx}{dt}=-13$

$\therefore \frac{dy}{dt}=\frac{x}{\sqrt{x^2+100}}.(-13)$

Now

$\therefore \frac{dy}{dt}|_{x=24}=\frac{24}{\sqrt{24^2+100}}.(-13)$

$=\frac{24\times (-13)}{\sqrt{676}}$

$=\frac{24\times (-13)}{26}$

= -12 m/s

Negative sign denotes the distance between the car and the person decrease.

Therefore the rate change of distance between the car and the person at the instant, the car is 24 m from the intersection is 12 m/s.

Today there are a total of six toll-free area codes: 800, 844, 855, 866, 877, and 888. Assume that all seven digits for the rest

Ludmilka [50]

Answer:

$6 \times 10^{7}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Total number of toll-free area codes = 6

A complete number will be of the form:

800-abc-defg

Where abcdefg can be any 7 numbers from 0 to 9. This holds true for all the 6 area codes.

Finding the possible toll free numbers for one area code and multiplying that by 6 will give use the total number of toll free numbers for all 6 area codes.

Considering: 800-abc-defg

The first number "a" can take any digit from 0 to 9. So there are 10 possibilities for this place. Similarly, the second number can take any digit from 0 to 9, so there are 10 possibilities for this place as well and same goes for all the 7 numbers.

Since, there are 10 possibilities for each of the 7 places, according to the fundamental principle of counting, the total possible toll free numbers for one area code would be:

Possible toll free numbers for 1 area code = 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = $10^{7}$

Since, there are 6 toll-free are codes in total, the total number of toll-free numbers for all 6 area codes = $6 \times 10^{7}$
