Juanita ran 8.3 miles in Week 1 and 12.09 miles in Week 2. She used the subtraction below to determine how much farther she ran

in Week 2 than in Week 1.
12.09 minus 8.30 = 4.79. All decimals are aligned. The 0 in 12.09 is crossed out and a 1 is above it. The 2 is crossed out in 12.09 and a 1 is above it.

Which error did Juanita make?
She subtracted instead of added.
She aligned the decimal points incorrectly.
She did not regroup correctly when subtracting.
She made a computational error when subtracting.

Step-by-step explanation:

12.09 - 8.30 = 3.79

The reason why her answer was wrong is because when the '2' gets slashed into a '1' during carry over, it would have been 11 - 8 = 3 instead of a 4. (the 1st column)

The error that Juanita made is that she made a computational error when subtracting.

Answer:

  • She made a computational error when subtracting.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>She subtracted instead of added. </u>

  • No, she needed to subtract to find the difference.

<u>She aligned the decimal points incorrectly. </u>

  • No, she did it right.

<u>She did not regroup correctly when subtracting. </u>

  • No, she regrouped correctly.

<u>She made a computational error when subtracting.</u>

  • Yes. She made an error at last step, instead of subtracting 8 from 11 she subtracted 8 from 12 and got the first digit wrong (4 instead of 3).

The low temperature last week in Iceland was-2.25. The low temperature this week was 1.25. What was the change in temperature fr
viktelen [127]

Answer:

The change in temperature from last week to this week=3.5

Step-by-step explanation:

To get the change in temperature from last week to this week, we need to take last week's temperature and subtract it from this week's temperature.

For example;

Change in temperature=This week's temperature-last week's temperature

where;

This week's temperature=-2.25

last week's temperature=1.25

replacing;

Change in temperature=(1.25)-(-2.25)=1.25+2.25=3.5

The change in temperature from last week to this week=3.5

Help me.A towns population went from 25,800 people to 48,200 people in ten years. What is the percent
solong [7]

The percent increase in population is: 87%

Further explanation:

The percent change is given by:

Percent\ increase=\frac{Increase}{Original\ number}*100

Given

Population before 10 years = 25800 people

Population after 10 years= 48200 people

Increase=48200-25800=22400\ people

Putting the values in the formula:

Percent\ Increase=\frac{22400}{25800}*100\\=0.8682*100\\=86.82\%\\Rounding\ off\ to\ nearest\ percent\\87\%

The percent increase in population is: 87%

Find the value of x. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.
Fantom [35]
Hello again! So we will be using the pythagorean theorem (leg^2+leg^2=hypotenuse^2) to solve for the bottom leg of the triangles. After we do that, we'll subtract the value of the legs from 31, and that'll be x.


Plug in 17 and z (or any variable that isn't x) into the leg variable and 19 into the hypotenuse variable, and from there we can solve.

17^2+z^2=19^2

Solve the exponents to get 289+z^2=361

Subtract 289 on each side to get z^2=72

Lastly, square root each side of the equation and your answer should be z= \sqrt{72} (To get more accurate answers, you shouldn't round until the end of the problem)


Nextly, we will need to subtract \sqrt{72} from 31. And since there are 2 triangles, you'll need to multiply \sqrt{72} by 2.

x=31- \sqrt{72} *2 \\ x=14.0

In short, x = 14.0
