Width = 5
5x2 = 10 and the length would 13... which is 3 more inches than twice the width
You can break large numbers into a sum of a multiple(s) of 10 and the last digit of the number. For example, you can break 26 as 20+6, or 157 as 100+50+7.
Then, using the distributive property, you can turn the original multiplication into a sum of easier multiplications. For example, suppose we want to multiply 26 and 37. This is quite challenging to do in your mind, but you can break the numbers as we said above:
All these multiplications are rather easy, because they either involve multiples of 10 of single-digit numbers:
Answer:
10%
Step-by-step explanation:
In this question, we are asked to calculate the percentage error in a measurement.
This can be obtained by first getting the error involved. That is calculated by Subtracting the value calculated from the actual value. That is 9.5 - 8.9 = 0.6
The percentage error is thus 0.6/9.5 * 100 = 6%
The value is actually 10% to the nearest tenth of a percent
Answer:
(a) 12.96 ft²
(b) 21.5 in²
Step-by-step explanation:
(a) For the first diagram
Area of the shaded region (A) = Area of Tripezium- area of circle
A = [1/2(a+b)h]-[πr²]............... Equation 1
Where a and b are the parallel side of the tripezium respectively, h = height of the tripezium, r = radius of the circle.
From the diagram,
Given: a = 15 ft, b = 6 ft, h = 12 ft, r = h/2 = 12/2 = 6 ft.
Constant: π = 3.14
Substitute these values into equation 1
A = [12(15+6)/2]-(3.14×6²)
A = 126-113.04
A = 12.96 ft²
(b) For the second diagram,
Area of the shaded region (A') = Area of square- area of circle
A' = (L²)-(πr²)............. Equation 2
Where L = lenght of one side of the square, r = radius of the circle
From the diagram,
Given: L = 2r = (2×5) = 10 in, r = 5 in
Substitute these values into equation 2
A' = (10²)-(3.14×5²)
A' = 100-78.5
A = 21.5 in²
Answer:
-5
Step-by-step explanation:
because it is on the - side because there is a post side and a - side
