1 meter would because 1 milimeter would be the size of your fingernail

Hello there,
The answer to your question is 1 meter as its more sensible. As if you were to use 1 millimeter it will take you a long time to measure the iron board and the result will be inaccurate. Thus to prevent inaccuracy, 1 meter is a better estimate.

Hope this helps :))

Answer:

Jesse should buy a new bag in 16 days.

Step-by-step explanation:

He uses 18.75 grams a day.

We can multiply the amount of grams by the amount of days.

18.75 x 16 = 300

He stops using the bag when he uses 300 grams.

So he uses 1 bag for 16 days

1 bag can last for 16 days.

Which statement is true? A.27/19<11/30 B.17/31>19/14 C.16/26>30/31 D.35/30<22/12

Mrac [35]

A. $\frac{27}{19}$

To find greater than or smaller than relation, we multiply the terms like (numerator of L.H.S with denominator of R.H.S and put the value on the left side. Then multiply the denominator of L.H.S with numerator of R.H.S and put the value on right side. Now compare the digits.)

So, solving A, we get 810<209 ... This is false

B. $\frac{17}{31}>\frac{19}{14}$

= 238>589 ..... This is false

C. $\frac{16}{26}>\frac{30}{31}$

= 496>780 .... This is false

D. $\frac{35}{30}$

= 420<660 ..... This is true

Hence, option D is true.

The Kansas City Chiefs are trying to figure out if there is a relationship between the number of passes thrown by Quarterback Pa

stich3 [128]

The linear regression equation that represents this data is given as follows: y = 22x - 518.

Using this equation, when 38 passes are thrown, the expected yardage is of 318 yards.

<h3>How to find the equation of linear regression?</h3>

To find the regression equation, also called line of best fit or least squares regression equation, we need to insert the points (x,y) in the calculator. These points are given on a table or in a scatter plot in the problem.

In the context of this problem, the input and output are given as follows:

Input: number of passes thrown by Patrick Mahomes.

Output: number of passing yards obtaining by Mahomes/KC.

The points to be inserted in the calculator are given as follows:

(39, 360), (35, 235), (35, 262), (37, 249), (40, 338).

Hence the equation is given by:

y = 22x - 518.

With 38 passes, the expected yardage is calculated as follows:

y = 22(38) - 518 = 318 yards.

Find the area of the shaded region. Round your answer to the nearest tenth.

Troyanec [42]

Area of the square = (9 m)^2 = 81 m^2

The four circular sectors combine to form a circle with diameter 9 m, hence radius 4.5 m.

Area of the circle = π (4.5 m)^2 = 20.25π m^2

Then the area of the shaded region is

81 m^2 - 20.25π m^2 ≈ 17.4 m^2
