3/4x = 9....multiply both sides by 4 <==
3x = 9 * 4
3x = 36
x = 36/3
x = 12
Hello!
Here are some rules to determine the number of significant figures.
- Numbers that are not zero are significant (45 - all are sigfigs)
- Zeros between non-zero digits are significant (3006 → all are sigfigs)
- Trailing zeros are not significant (0.067 → the first two zeros are not sigfigs)
- Trailing zeros after a decimal point are always significant (1.000 → all are sigfigs)
- Trailing zeros in a whole number are not significant (7800 → the last two zeros are not sigfigs)
- In scientific notation, the exponential digits are not significant, known as place holders (6.02 x 10² → 10² is not a sigfig)
Now, let's find the number of significant figures in each given number.
A). 296.54
Since these digits are all <em>non-zero</em>, there are 5 significant figures.
B). 5003.1
Since the two <em>zeros are between non-zero digits</em>, they are significant figures. Thus, there are 5 significant figures.
C). 360.01
Again, the two zeros are between non-zero digits. There are 5 significant figures.
D). 18.3
All of these digits are non-zero, hence, there are 3 significant figures.
Therefore, expression D has the fewest number of significant figures being 3.
To get a number as a percent of another, you divide and multiply by 100, so here you would have (13/52)*100=.25*100=25, making your answer 25%.
Answer:
X + 3
Step-by-step explanation:
There is no definite working. The first container is what I call the base because everything is a little above the first container, X. They are basically asking you what is the total of the four jars bigger than X. In other words how many steps more to climb before the top floor while you are on the first step. So then you add the other numbers like 0.5 etc which will give you X +3. Hope it helps.
Answer:
<em>x = 9</em>
<em>y = 36</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Lines and Angles</u>
Triangle CDE is isosceles. This means the two angles of the base DE are congruent (have the same measure):
7x + 1 = 4x + 28
Subtracting 4x + 1:
3x = 27
Dividing by 3:
x = 9
Substituting in the expression for the angles:
7x + 1 = 7*9 + 1 = 64°
The angles are 64° and 64°. The other internal angle at vertex C is 180°-64°-64°=52°. This angle is congruent with its vertical angle in the triangle ABC. We are given another angle of 43°. Thus the measure of angle A is 180°-52°-43°=85°
This last angle is equal to the expression of y:
-2(3 - y) + 19 = 85
Subtracting 19:
-2(3 - y) = 66
Removing the parentheses:
-6 + 2y = 66
Adding 6:
2y = 72
Dividing by 2:
y = 36
Final answer:
x = 9
y = 36
