Answer:
.
Step-by-step explanation:
It is given that a number, x, rounded to 2 significant figures is 1300.
It is possible if,
1. The value of x is greater than of equal to 1250 and less than or equal to 1300.
i.e., ...(1)
2. The value of x is greater than of equal to 1300 and less than 1350.
i.e., ...(2)
On combining (1) and (2), we get
1350 is not included in the error interval for x.
Interval notation is .
Therefore, the error interval for x is .
Answer: The answer is 1833 heads and 11 hours, 11 minutes.
Step-by-step explanation: Given that the Magic Dragon has 2013 heads. The brave Leo is cutting off the Dragon's heads at a speed of 5 heads per minute. But, the Dragon's heads are growing back at a speed of 2 heads per minute.
So, the number of heads of Dragon that are decreasing per minute = 3.
Therefore, after 1 hour, i.e., 60 minutes, The number of heads of the Dragon
= 2013 - 60 × 3 = 2013 - 180 = 1833 heads.
Now, the fight will last until all the heads of the Dragon are cut. Let the fight lasts for 'x' minutes, then
Hence the fight lasts for 671 minutes, i.e., 11 hours and 11 minutes.
Thus, the Dragon will have 1833 heads after 1 hour and the fight will last for 11 hour and 11 minutes.
