Answer: x = -2,-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Solution:
A number line is used to represent the possible numbers that x can be.
x that is less than equal to 8 >>>> x ≤ 8
x is greater than -3 >>>> x > -3
So it will be represented as,
-3 < x ≤ 8
So all the numbers between -3 and 8 including eight (because it has the equal sign)
-2,-1, 0, 1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7, 8
Percent error : (approximate value - exact value) / exact value.....x 100
percent error : (5.75 - 6.25) / 6.25......ignore any negative signs
0.5 / 6.25 = 0.08.....x 100 = 8% error <==
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
What this question is asking of you is what is the greatest common divisor of 12 and 15. Or, what is the biggest number that divides both 12 and 15.
in order to find this we have to split each number into it's prime components.
for 12 they are 2,2 and 3 (
2
⋅
2
⋅
3
=
12
)
and for 15 they are 3 and 5 (
3
⋅
5
=
15
)
Out of those two groups (2,2,3) and (3,5) the only thing in common is 3, so 3 is the greatest common divisor. That tells us that the greatest number of groups that can exist and have the same number of girls and the same number of boys for each group is 3.
Now to find out how many girls and boys there are going to be in each group we divide the totals by 3, so:
12
3
=
4
girls per group, and
15
3
=
5
boys per group.
(just as a thought exercise, if there were 16 boys, the divisors would have been (2,2,3) and (2,2,2,2), leaving us with 4 groups [
2
⋅

] of 3 girls [12/4] and 4 boys [16/4] )
66 inches. Since 1 foot is equal to 12 inches, all you need to do is to multiply 5 with 12. The answer will be 60. Since 6 inches are already given for the answer, just add up 60 with 6 for you to get 66 inches which is equivalent to 5 feet 6 inches.
