Answer:
12.
Step-by-step explanation:
This is how to round 12.36 to the nearest whole number. In other words, this is how to round 12.36 to the nearest integer.
12.36 has two parts. The integer part to the left of the decimal point and the fractional part to the right of the decimal point:
Integer Part: 12
Fractional Part: 36
Our goal is to round it so we only have an integer part using the following rules:
If the first digit in the fractional part of 12.36 is less than 5 then we simply remove the fractional part to get the answer.
If the first digit in the fractional part of 12.36 is 5 or above, then we add 1 to the integer part and remove the fractional part to get the answer.
The first digit in the fractional part is 3 and 3 is less than 5. Therefore, we simply remove the fractional part to get 12.36 rounded to the nearest whole number as:
12
F it rose 10% that means that it is now worth 110% of what it was a year ago. So set up an equation: 297 = 110% of x297 = 1.1 x270 = x So it was worth $270 a year ago.
This is the order from smallest to greatest: -10,-5,0,5,10
Answer:
Maximum height is 7 feet
Step-by-step explanation:
Solution:-
- The complete question is as follows:
" The height of a small rise in a roller coaster track is modeled by f(x) = –0.07x^2 + 0.42x + 6.37, where x is the distance in feet from a supported at ground level.
Find the greatest height of the rise "
- To find any turning points ( minimum or maximum ) points of a trajectory expressed as function of independent parameter, we find the critical points of the trajectory where the first derivative of the dependent variable w.rt independent variable is set to zero.
- In our case the height of the roller coaster track (y) is function of the distance (x) from a supported pole at ground level.
f(x) = –0.07x^2 + 0.42x + 6.37
- Now set the first derivative equal to zero, and determine the critical values of x:
0 = -0.14x + 0.42
x = 0.42 / 0.14 = 3 ft
- The critical value for the coaster track is at point 3 feet away from the supported pole at ground level. So the height f(x) at x = 3 ft, would be:
f ( x = 3 ) = max height
max height = –0.07*3^2 + 0.42*3 + 6.37
= 7 ft

Answer: 4</h3>
===========================================
Explanation:
For now, ignore the variables. Let's just focus on the coefficients 12 and 16.
The GCF of 12 and 16 is 4 because this is the largest factor they have in common.
12 = 4*3
16 = 4*4
You could create a factor tree to get the prime factorization of each number
12 = 2*2*3
16 = 2*2*2*2
Each factor tree has two copies of '2' leading to the GCF 2*2 = 4.
--------
Now let's go back to the variables. The term 12n and 16w^3 do not have any variables in common. So the final answer won't have any variables in it. If both terms had say a 'w' in them, then w would somehow be involved in the GCF. But that's not the case here. So we just stick to 4 as our answer.
--------
Side note: If you had 12n+16w^3 and you wanted to factor, then you would factor out the GCF 4 to get 12n+16w^3 = 4(3n+4w^3). Use the distribution rule to confirm this.
