Answer:
Multiply both sides of the equation
Step-by-step explanation:
Samuel needs to estimate the product of 24 x 395.
First method
We round the number to nearest tens
24 can be rounded to 20 because we have 4 on ones place
395 can be rounded to 400 because we have 5 in ones place so we add 1 with 9 and it becomes 10 . so we add 1 with 3 and got 400
20 * 400 = 8000
Second method:
We round the number to nearest hundreds place
24 have no number in hundreds place so it remains 24
395 can be rounded to 400 because we have 9 in tens place.
24 * 400 = 9600
Answer:
2 sqrt(5) OR 4.5
Step-by-step explanation:
You have to know Pythagorean theorem to solve this question.
a^2 + b^2 = c^2
To use this theorem you have to have a right triangle. There are two right triangles in your image. The lower (larger) one has two sides labeled, so you can use Pythagorean thm to find the third side. There's a short cut, bc some right triangles have easy-to-memorize lengths of the sides. 3-4-5 is one of these number sets. A multiple of this is 6-8-10. We could've solved:
b^2 + 8^2 = 10^2
But it would've come out the same. The unlabeled side is 6.
We can use the 6 and the 4 on the smaller right triangle and use the Pythagorean thm again to solve for x.
4^2 + x^2 = 6^2
16 + x^2 = 36 subtract 16 from both sides.
x^2 = 20
Take the square root of both sides.
sqrt (x^2) = sqrt 20
x = 2 sqrt(5) which is approximately 4.472.
2 sqrt(5) is an exact answer if that is what they are asking for. 4.472 is an approximation to the nearest thousandth. It would be 4.47 to the nearest hundredth or 4.5 to the nearest tenth.
