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.
We can easily work out the meter reading in October. It comes out to be 32347 + 972. So the reading in October must be around 33319.
SO the answer to second question is really easy to figure out too. As we know that one unit costs 14 p we can simply multiply the cost with the number of units consumed.
So for 972 units if we multiply by 14 we get the cost to be around somewhere 13608 p.

We have to find the parameter a so that (-1,2) is part of the function f(x) = ax²+4.
To check if a point is part of a function, we can replace the values of x and y = f(x) with the coordinates of the point and then, if the equation stays true, then the point is part of the function.
So for (x,y) = (-1,2) to be part of the function y = f(x), this equation has to stands true:

Then, the function would have to be f(x) = -2x² + 4.
We can check with a graph as:
Answer: a = -2
Answer:
y=tan x and y=cotx
Step-by-step explanation:
We are given functions of all trignometric ratios and asked to find out which has range of all real numbers. Let us discuss one by one
1. y =sinx: False because -1≤sinx≤1 always
2. y=cosx:False because -1≤cosx≤1 always
3. y = tanx: True because tanx can take any value
4. y=cot x: True because cots x can take any value
5. y = csc x: False because this range does not lie between -1 and 1
6. y=sec xFalse because this range does not lie between -1 and 1
