All estimating problems make the assumption you are familar with your math facts, addition and multiplication. Since students normally memorize multiplication facts for single-digit numbers, any problem that can be simplified to single-digit numbers is easily worked.
2. You are asked to estimate 47.99 times 0.6. The problem statement suggests you do this by multiplying 50 times 0.6. That product is the same as 5 × 6, which is a math fact you have memorized. You know this because
.. 50 × 0.6 = (5 × 10) × (6 × 1/10)
.. = (5 × 6) × (10 ×1/10) . . . . . . . . . . . by the associative property of multiplication
.. = 30 × 1
.. = 30
3. You have not provided any clue as to the procedure reviewed in the lesson. Using a calculator,
.. 47.99 × 0.6 = 28.79 . . . . . . rounded to cents
4. You have to decide if knowing the price is near $30 is sufficient information, or whether you need to know it is precisely $28.79. In my opinion, knowing it is near $30 is good enough, unless I'm having to count pennies for any of several possible reasons.
Answer: 115, 2645
(x= 115, y= 2645)
Step-by-step explanation:
There are two methods to this, which is using the graph with each x and y value, or substituting in values.
I would suggest looking at the graph first and then substituting values so you know the equation is being satisfied by the ordered pair.
In this case, one way to check it could look like this (substituting y value):
y = 23x
2645 = 23x
x = 2645÷23
x = 115
This is the graph for that
Answer:
110 cm^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The first thing that you need to do is find the area of triangle AFE. The area of a triangle is always base*height/2. So in this case, that would be 10*6 divided by 2, which is 30 cm. Next, you will need to know the area of triangle ECB. Using that same formula, you will get 8*10/2, which is 40 cm. Finally, you will need to find the area of the whole rectangle. The area of a rectangle is always the length times the width. In this case, you would have 10*18, which is 180 cm. To get your final answer, you need to subtract the areas of the unshaded area from the whole area. That would be 180-(30+40), which is 110 cm. I hope this helped!
