38.97 would be standard form
For this case we must follow the following rules of rounding
1) If the previous number is greater than or equal to five, then the next number increases by one unit
2) If the previous number is less than five, then the next number stays the same
Therefore, the steps for rounding to the nearest tenth is:
1) We observe that 3 is less than 5.
2) Therefore, the next number stays the same
Rounding to the nearest tenth is:
5.6
Answer:
1) We observe that 3 is less than 5.
2) Therefore, the next number stays the same
5.6
Answer:
-11.55
Step-by-step explanation:
(to get the numbers out of the brackets you have to multiply all the numbers in the brackets to the number that is there, and in this case its 1.5)
1.5x(-2.4)= -3.6
1.5×(-5.3)= -7.95
after that, you add them (because there is a plus sign, not a minus, multiplication sign or a division sign.)
-7.95+ -3.6= -11.55
answer= -11.55
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
k(k+1)(k+2) - 3k(k+1)
k and (k+1) are common to both terms.
k(k+1)(k+2) - 3k(k+1) = k(k+1)[(k+2) - 3] = k(k+1)(k-1)
Answer:
10 miles.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the number of miles on Henry's longest race.
We have been given that Henry ran five races, each of which was a different positive integer number of miles.
We can set an equation for the average of races as:
As distance covered in each race is a different positive integer, so let his first four races be 1, 2, 3, 4.
Now let us substitute the distances of 5 races as:
Let us multiply both sides of our equation by 5.
Let us subtract 10 from both sides of our equation.
Therefore, the maximum possible distance of Henry's longest race is 10 miles.
