Divide 77.5 by 10 = 7.75
Since we divide by 10.2 (and not 10), we **subtract** 2% of 7.75, which is about 0.155 to give 7.595. (error=-0.04%)
You can also simplify a little by approximating 2% of 7.75 as 0.15 to give 7.6 as your estimate. (error=+0.026%)
exact value = 7.598...
15:13 is in its simplest form already, since 13 is a prime number and 15 is not a multiple of 13.
Answer: -(x+8)(x-8)
Step-by-step explanation:
-(x^2-64)
x^2-8^2x^2
x^2-8^2=(x+8)(x-8)
-(x+8)(x-8)
Answer:
1) B- Substitution
2) C- Elimination
3) A- Graphing
Step-by-step explanation:
1)
x+3y=7
5x+11y=3
x = 7 - 3y
Plug this x into the second equation and solve for y first
2)
5x-3y=3 --> (1)
2x+7y=6 --> (2)
Since making any variable the subject would involve fractions, it's better to go for elimination
7(1) + 3(2)
would eliminate y
3)
While comparing cost and adjusting choices, a graph is a better approach because all the possibilities are right in front
The number of students in the school = x+y+z
