Answer:

because it is a decimal so it multiplies 100 by the decimal which is a smaller number, almost like how when you divide it becomes a smaller number.

i'm not sure why that is, but the only thing i can assume is that either your calculator is broken somehow or you are accidentally typing in the wrong numbers.

you might also have forgotten to clear your calculator before attempting to put in 0.12 x 100.

i recommend using an online calculator for the time being if your calculator is faulty/having issues.

The average (arithmetic mean) of five different positive integers is 30. What is the greatest possible value of one of these int

Answer:

The Greatest possible value of one of the integer is 140.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The average (arithmetic mean) of five different positive integers is 30.

To find: What is the greatest possible value of one of these integers?

Explanation: we are given that the arithmetic mean of five positive integer

is 30.

Let the five positive integers are A,B,C,D,E

The arithmetic mean :

$\frac{A+B+C+D+E}{5}$ =30.

On multiplying both side by 5.

A+B+C+D+E =150.

The least values of A ,B,C and D can be 1 ,2,3,4.

Then : 1 +2+3+4+E =150

On simplification 10+E =150

On subtraction both side by 10 we get

E = 140 .

Therefore, the Greatest possible value of one of the integer is 140.

In the figure, line segment VR is parallel to line segment US and m<1 = 45 degrees what is m<4?

Jobisdone [24]

The measure of ∠4 is 45°.

Solution:

Line segment VR is parallel to the line segment US.

m∠1 = 45°

∠1 and ∠4 are corresponding angles.

<em>If two lines are parallel, then the corresponding angles are congruent.</em>

m∠1 = m∠4

45° = m∠4

m∠4 = 45°

The measure of ∠4 is 45°.

Destiny designs necklaces.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Well, the ratio of yellow beads to blue beads is 4:5. The best way I think is to guess and check multiplying the ratio by integers. You need between 15 and 20.

4 : 5 ( = 9 too little )

8 : 10 ( = 18 just right)

12 : 15 ( = 27 too much)

So per necklace, 8 yellow beads and 10 blue beads would be needed.

I hope this helps :-)
