Answer:

0.8 lbs

Step-by-step explanation:

Ounces are typically used to measure liquid, so I would discourage choosing the top two. And, hopefully you know by now that an orange does not weigh 8 pounds.

Answer:

  (a)  0.8 ounces (most precision)

  (b)  8 ounces (best precision for likely weight of an orange)

Step-by-step explanation:

The most precision is obtained by using the smallest unit of measure. On this list, the smallest unit of measure is a tenth of an ounce. That is, the measure 0.8 ounces has the most precision.

__

It is unlikely that the weight of one orange will be 0.8 ounces. The smallest unit used in a measurement likely to correspond to the weight of an orange is 1 ounce, used in the measurement 8 ounces. That measurement has better precision than 0.8 pounds, because 0.1 pounds corresponds to 1.6 ounces.

Help answer asap pls ---------
Reika [66]

Answer:

d = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to know what d would be when x = -1, so we can start off by plugging in -1 for x to get the following equation: \sqrt{8 - (-1)} = 2(-1)+d. On the left hand side, 2 negatives become a positive sign, so the -(-1) becomes a +1, and 8+1 would equal 9. On the right hand side, we just multiply 2 and -1 to get -2. So, the equation now looks like this: \sqrt{9} = d-2. We know that \sqrt{9} = 3, so we would get 3 = d-2. THen we would add 2 to both sides to get d = 5. Hope this helps!
