Which is the best estimate of 5 5/6 - (1 1/4 + 3 7/8)​

Mathematics
1 answer:
pantera1 [17]2 years ago
3 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

"Best estimate' doesn't happen automaticallly, because you have to define "best" in this context.  We could merely round all numbers and work with the results:  

For example, starting with the work inside parentheses, we have:

5 5/6 - (1 + 4) = 5 5/6 - 5.  We must round 5 5/6 up to 6.  Then the "best estimate' is 6 - 5, or just 1.

Wich method can you use yo decide wich of several integers has the greatest value?
serg [7]

Answer:

C

The integer with the greatest value is the one that is farthest to the right hand side of the number line

Step-by-step explanation:

The number line is constructed in a way such that we have a center point of zero with positive values to the right of the number line and negative values to the left of the number line.

Moving deeper right, we have an increase in positivity, with the more positive values rightwards, indicating an increase in the numbers to the right

Moving to the left, we have an increase in negativity, but a decrease in value. The negative numbers closer to zero are more positive and command higher values than the values which are farther from zero.

What these indicates is that the more rightward a number, the greater its value

Evgesh-ka [11]

Answer:

Bill\to 9\ years

H \to 16\ years

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

H \to Hoang

B \to Bill

Currently:

H = B + 7

Two years ago

H - 2 = 2 * (B -2)

Required

H and B

We have:

H - 2 = 2 * (B -2)

Open bracket

H -2 =2B - 4

Add 2 to both sides

H -2+2 =2B - 4+2

H =2B -2

Substitute H = B + 7

B + 7 =2B -2

Collect like terms

2B - B =7+2

B = 9

Substitute B = 9 in H = B + 7

H = B + 7

H = 9 + 7

H = 16
