Answer:
0.706
Step-by-step explanation:
Convert 12/17 to decimal by dividing the numerator by denominator.
12 ÷ 17 = 0.70588.......
The nearest thousandth is the third decimal place.
If we round up: 0.706
If we round down: 0.705
Because the fourth digit is "8", we round up.
If the digit after the one you want to round to is 5 or greater, then you round up. If the digit after is 4 or less, round down..
12 ÷ 17 = 0.70588....... ≈ 0.706
Answer:
(a) 
(b) 
(c) Jim initially had 48; Kirk initially had 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Given


Solving (a): An equation for the amount they originally had.
From the question, we understand that j is 4 times as many as k.
Mathematically, this is:


Solving (b): Equation after Kirk wins
Initially Kirk had k.
To get the new expression, we add 18 to k.
This gives: 18 + k
In the same vein, Jim's number of chirps will reduce by 18.
Initially, Jim had j chirps (or 4k chirps)
To get the new expression, we subtract 18 from j.
This gives: j - 18
So, the equation is:

Solving (c): Number of chirps they started with.
In (b), we have:

Substitute 4k for j

Divide both sides by 3

Substitute 12 for k in 


Answer:
I believe answer choice A
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a rectangle is as follows...
Area = Base x Height
Base is given to be 3h + 5 and height is given to be 2h
Area = (3h+5)(2h) = 6h^2 + 10h which is none of the answers listed.
