Round 52961 to one significant figure

Aneli [31]

Answer: 50000

Step-by-step explanation:

Significant figures : The figures in a number which express the value -the magnitude of a quantity to a specific degree of accuracy is known as significant digits.

Rules for significant figures:

Digits from 1 to 9 are always significant and have infinite number of significant figures.

All non-zero numbers are always significant. For example: 654, 6.54 and 65.4 all have three significant figures.

All zero’s between integers are always significant. For example: 5005, 5.005 and 50.05 all have four significant figures.

All zero’s preceding the first integers are never significant. For example: 0.0078 has two significant figures.

All zero’s after the decimal point are always significant. For example: 4.500, 45.00 and 450.0 all have four significant figures.

Thus 52961 when rounded off to one significant figure will be 50000.

A cargo plane flew from the US across the Atlantic at 212 mph, and flew back to the US at 232 mph. Given that the first trip too

expeople1 [14]

The return trip was 21.2 hours long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Speed of plane from US = 212 mph

Speed of plane on return trip = 232 mph

Let,

x be the time taken on return trip.

Time taken from US = x+2

We know that;

Distance = Speed * Time

Distance of plane from US = 212(x+2) = 212x+424

Distance on return trip = 232x

As the distance will be same, therefore,

$232x=212x+424\\232x-212x=424\\20x=424$

Dividing both sides by 20

$\frac{20x}{20}=\frac{424}{20}\\x=12.2\ hours$

The return trip was 21.2 hours long.

Sarawongs school is selling tickets to the anual talent show on the first day of ticket sales the school sold 1 adult ticket and

vaieri [72.5K]

Price of one adult ticket is $9 and price of one student ticket is also $9.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let,

Adult ticket = x

Student ticket = y

According to given statement;

x+2y=27 Eqn 1

2x+2y=36 Eqn 2

Subtracting Eqn 1 from Eqn 2;

$(2x+2y)-(x+2y)=36-27\\2x+2y-x-2y=9\\x=9$

Putting x=9 in Eqn 1;

$9+2y=27\\2y=27-9\\2y=18$

Dividing both sides by 2;

$\frac{2y}{2}=\frac{18}{2}\\y=9$

Price of one adult ticket is $9 and price of one student ticket is also $9.
