A botanist measured the length of a tomato seedling as 3.56 centimeters. Select her degree of accuracy in measurement.

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)

Answer:

slope-intercept form y= -2/3 x + 490 slope is -2/3 y intercept is (0.490)

Step-by-step explanation:

2x+3y= 1470

3y= 1470-2x

y= 1470/3- 2/3 x

y= -2/3 x+ 490

slope is -2/3 and y intercept is 490 when x =0

the graph represent the amount of sandwiches that Sal's shop sold, where x is the number of sandwiches and y is the number of wraps sold. so that x won't exceed 735 sandwiches : 0≤x≤735 and  0≤ y≤490.

<u>total profit is 1593.</u>

2x+3y= 1593

y= -2/3 x + 531

similar : the two functions have the same slope -2/3

difference: 0≤ y≤531

                   0≤x≤796.5

the two line are parallel

What is 92.9 rounded to the nersst whole number
sammy [17]
The nearest whole number would be 93 because you round up if the decimal place is greater than 5 and down if it's less.

Determine if the equation y = 2(0.45)x represents exponential growth or decay
djverab [1.8K]
We have that
y = 2(0.45)^x

in this problem 
2-----------> is the Coefficient
0.45-------> is the Base
<span>x-----------> is the Exponent

we know that
</span><span>If the base  is less than 1 (but always greater than 0), the function will be exponential decay
</span>It is decay because as x values increase, y values decrease.
<span>0.45 < 1  and 0.45 > 0
therefore

the equation
</span>y = 2(0.45)^x
represents <span>exponential decay
</span>
the answer is
exponential decay<span>

6. A rectangle has a perimeter of 62 feet. If its length is 9 feet longer than its width, find
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

length = 20 ft, width = 11 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

let w be width, then length = w + 9

The opposite sides of a rectangle are equal , then

2w + 2(w + 9) = 62

2w + 2w + 18 = 62

4w + 18 = 62 ( subtract 18 from both sides )

4w = 44 ( divide both sides by 4 )

w = 11

and w + 9 = 11 + 9 = 20

then width = 11 ft and length = 20 ft

Jackie's restaurant bill was $23. 50, and the tax was 8%. Jackie left a 20% tip on the post-tax bill. How much was the tip Jacki
Ksju [112]

well, the subtotal or pre-tax bill is $23.50, now let's add the 8% tax and

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{8\% of 23.50}}{\left( \cfrac{8}{100} \right)23.50}\implies 1.88

so the post-tax bill is 23.50 + 1.88 = 25.38, and Jackie's tip is 20% of that

\begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{a\% of b}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ \left( \cfrac{a}{100} \right)\cdot b \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}~\hspace{5em}\stackrel{\textit{20\% of 25.38}}{\left( \cfrac{20}{100} \right)25.38}\implies 5.076\qquad \approx 5.08
