Answer:

her degree of accuracy in measurement is 0.05 cm (Option D)

Step-by-step explanation:

The degree of accuracy in the measurement of the botanist depends on the instrument used.

For a length of 3.56 centimeters, it shows that the length of the tomato seedling was measured using meter rule or tape.

Meter rule is graduated in 1 mm or 0.1 cm. The estimated uncertainty in measurement using meter rule is half of its graduation i.e ( ¹/₂ of 0.1 cm = 0.05 cm).

If the botanist measured the length of tomato seedling as 3.56 centimeters, then her degree of accuracy in measurement is 3.56 cm ± 0.05 cm.

Therefore, her degree of accuracy in measurement is 0.05 cm (Option D)

What is -2/3x+1/3+x=2/5? thanks.

OverLord2011 [107]

-2/3x +1/3 +x = 2/5
⇒ 1/3x + 1/3 = 2/5
⇒ 1/3x = 2/5 -1/3
⇒ x/3 = 1/15
⇒ 15x = 3
⇒ x = 3/15
⇒ x = 1/5

Is this a true or false solution? y = 12x; (3,32)

Elenna [48]

Substitute the x-value and see if you get the corresponding y-value. The corresponding y-value an x-value of 3 in this equation should be

$y = 12(3)$

$y = 36$

Since the coordinate (3,32) does not represent that, it is a false solution
