How many significant digits are there in the measurement 84,000 kg

Mathematics
1 answer:
alex41 [277]3 years ago
6 0

Answer:

\boxed {\boxed {\sf 2 \ significant \ figures}}

Step-by-step explanation:

According to the "rules" of significant figures, all the zeroes to the right of the final non-zero number are <em>not </em>significant, unless there is a decimal point.

We are given the measurement:

84,000 kg

If there was a decimal point (84,000.0 kg), then there would be 5 significant figures.

Since there isn't a decimal point, all 3 zeroes to the right of the number 4 aren't significant. The 8 and 4 are significant, so there are <u>2 significant figures</u>.

frozen [14]

Answer:

Each of them will get 3.375 inches of cookie.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rasputen and his three buddies are splitting a giant 18 inches cookie.

But they notice that \frac{1}{4}th of it is missing.

So, the actual length of the cookie is 18[1-\frac{1}{4} ]=18 \times \frac{3}{4}=13.5 inches.

If all the four of them get the same amount of the giant cookie then each of them will get \frac{13.5}{4} = 3.375 inches of cookie. (Answer)

AC=(5x+12) and BD =8x? Can somebody help me to slove it
AleksAgata [21]
To solve this equation from the information given above, I ordered it 5x+12=8x. To solve, I subtracted 5x from each side, canceling the 5x to your left, leaving only the number 12. 8x minus 5x equals 3x. Take 3x and divide on both sides. 3x/3x cancels the 3, leaving 12/3 equals 4. Finally, x equals 4.
