Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

0.28 is roughly the same as 0.280, which has 3 significant digits (same as 0.205 has 3 significant digits). It's easier when we compare numbers having the same number of decimal places.

Comparing 0.280 to 0.205, we see that the hundredths place of 0.280 (which is 8) is greater than the hundredths place of 0.205 (which is 0). Thus 0.28 is greateer than 0.205.

Two mechanics worked on a car. The first mechanic charged S95 per hour, and the second mechanic charged $115 per hour.

Answer:

First mechanic worked for 10 hours and second mechanic worked for 15 hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let first mechanic worked for X hours and second mechanic worked for Y hours .

Now, according to the question , they worked for a total of 25 hours .

Thus ,

X + Y = 25.

Y = 25 - X -(1)

Also, first mechanic is charging $ 95 per hour and second mechanic is charging $115 per hour .

Thus, total money charged by them will be 95X + 115Y .

Which is given to be $2675 in the question.

Thus 95X + 115Y = 2675. -(2)

Putting equation 1 in equation 2 we get ,

95X + 2875 - 115X = 2675

20X = 200

X = 10 hours.

Thus , Y = 25 - X = 15 hours.

Thus first mechanic worked for 10 hours and second mechanic worked for 15 hours.

12x -20=n (3x-5)<br><br> I need help I don’t get it please help me.

Answer:

The value of n = 4 and

The value of x = $\frac{5}{3}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Method I:

As given, 12x -20=n (3x-5) .........(1)

Firstly , take 12x - 20

As 12x - 20 can be written as 4(3x - 5)

∴ equation (1) becomes

4(3x - 5) = n (3x-5)

Divide the equation by (3x-5) , we get

4 = n

Method II:

As given, 12x -20=n (3x-5)

⇒12x - 20 = 3nx - 5n

⇒12x - 3nx = 20 - 5n

⇒3x(4 - n) = 5( 4 - n)

Divide the equation by (4-n) , we get

3x = 5

⇒ x = $\frac{5}{3}$

∴ we get

n = 4 and x = $\frac{5}{3}$

Now, check that value of n and x satisfies the equation or not

12( $\frac{5}{3}$ ) - 20 = 4( 3( $\frac{5}{3}$ ) - 5)

⇒4(5) - 20 = 4(5 - 5)

⇒20 - 20 = 4(0)

⇒ 0 = 0

Hence , we get

The values of x and n satisfies the equation

so, we get

n = 4 and x = $\frac{5}{3}$
