Answer: 1.0

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: "0.995 inches" ; round to the nearest TENTH of an inch.

(which means; round to the nearest "first decimal point" ; and to include the actual first decimal point (and that decimal point only, the "tenths place").

We are given the number: "0.955" . This is given to the nearest THOUSANDS.

We examine the "tenths place": "0.9" . So we know our choices are:

"0.9" (round down to the nearest tenths place); or, "1.0" (round up to the nearest tenths place).

→ We examine the number: "0.955" ; and look to the next value, the "hundredths place".

→ If that digit is 5 or greater (i.e. 5 to 9), we "round up" ; and the correct answer is: "1.0" . If that number is "4" or less (i.e. 0 to 4), we round down; and the correct answer is: "0.9".

________________________________________

In the case of our give value: "0.955" . The digit to the right of "9" is "5" ; so, as previously mentioned, we "round up" ; to: "1.0".

Do not forget to include the units.

The answer is: 1.0 inches.

Answer:

y = (1/2)x + 1

Step-by-step explanation:

linear line equation is y = mx + b

Where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept when x is 0.

For m, m is change in y(delta y) over change in x(delta x).

We are given two points: (0,1) and (4,3).

m = (y2 - y1)/(x2 - x1) = (3-1)/(4-0) = 2/4 = 1/2

y = (1/2)x + b

Now plug in (0,1) into above equation to find b value.

1 = (1/2)0 + b => b = 1

Final equation is y = (1/2)x + 1

How many 8's are in the answer and sum 5890/45?

Novay_Z [31]

Answer:

1. There are infinite 8's

2. The estimate is 130.89

3. The difference is 0.01

Explanation:

There are countless, or infinite, 8's in the answer because the result is a periodic decimal:

$\dfrac{5890}{45}=130.8888 . . .$

The notation used for the periodic decimal numbers is an arc over the number that is repeated. In this case, it would be an arc over the first 8.

I will use a bar just to show how it is, but instead of a bar it should be an arc:

$\dfrac{5890}{45}=130.\overline 8$

The estimation or approximation to two decimal places requires to drop the 8's since the third one and increase the second 8 to 9 (because the first decimal dropped is greater than or equal to 5).

Thus the estimated value would be 13.89.

The difference is:

130.89 - 130.888. . . = 0.0111. . .
Rounded to 2 decimal places: 0.01
