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)

If 112 people attend a concert and tickets for adults cost $2.25 while tickets for children cost $and total receipts for the con
Brut [27]

Answer:

42 child and 70 adult

Step-by-step explanation:

Let a = number of adult tickets

c = number of child tickets

a+c = 112

2.25a + 1.75c = 231

Solve the first equation for a

a = 112-c

Substitute this into the second equation

2.25(112-c) + 1.75c = 231

Distribute

252 - 2.25c +1.75c = 231

Combine like terms

252 -.5c = 231

Subtract 252 from each side

252-252 -.5c = 231-252

-.5c = -21

Divide each side by -.5

-.5c/-.5 = -21/ -.5

c = 42

Now can find a

a = 112-c

a = 112-42

a = 70

What is the slope of a line perpendicular to the line whose equation is 3x+6y=-183x+6y=−18. Fully reduce your answer.
schepotkina [342]

Answer:

2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given equation of line is

3x+6y=-18

We need to find the slope of a line which is perpendicular to the given line.

The given equation can be rewritten as

3x+6y+18=0      ...(i)

If a line is defined as ax+bx+c=0, then the slope of the line is  

m=-\dfrac{a}{b}

In equation (i), a=3, b=6 and c=18. So, slope of the line is

m_1=-\dfrac{3}{6}=-\dfrac{1}{2}

Let m_2 be the slope of perpendicular line.

We know that product of two perpendicular line is -1.

m_1\cdot m_2=-1

(-\dfrac{1}{2})\cdot m_2=-1

Multiply both sides by -2.

m_2=2

Therefore, the slope of perpendicular line is 2.

Answer:

Total material needed = 9.5 square feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Dimensions  of I = 2. 5feet x 1 feet

    Area = 2.5 square feet

Dimensions of S :

                      Top part = 1 feet x 1 feet

                         Area of top part = 1 square feet

                      Bottom part = 1 feet x 2.5 feet

                          Area of bottom part = 2.5 square feet

  Total Area of S = 2.5 + 1  = 3.5  square feet

Total material needed = Area of I + Area of S + Area of S

                                  = 2.5 + 3.5 + 3.5

                                  = 9.5 square feet.
