A measurement of 0.6 grams means that the 'true' answer lies between
<span>0.55 and 0.65 </span>

In general, the uncertainty in a single measurement from a single instrument is half the least precise decimal given for the instrument.
The precision for this measurement is in the tenths place.
so we take 0.1 /2 = 0.05, and divide by the measurement

<span>0.05 / 0.6 = 0.08333 = 8.3 %</span>

Fill in the blanks to rewrite the following statement with variables: Given any positive real number, there is a positive real n
sveticcg [70]

Answer:

a) there is s such that <u>r>s</u> and s is <u>positive</u>

b) For any <u>r>0</u> , <u>there exists s>0</u> such that s<r

Step-by-step explanation:

a) We are given a positive real number r. We need to wite that there is a positive real number that is smaller. Call that number s. Then r>s (this is equivalent to s<r, s is smaller than r) and s is positive (or s>0 if you prefer). We fill in the blanks using the bold words.

b) The last part claims that s<r, that is, s is smaller than r. We know that this must happen for all posirive real numbers r, that is, for any r>0, there is some positive s such that s<r. In other words, there exists s>0 such that s<r.

Solve for X.<br><br> -3/2(x-2)=45/14<br><br> Please show work.
ICE Princess25 [194]

Answer:

-1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

-3/2(x-2)=45/14

x-2=(45/14)/(-3/2)

x-2=(45/14)(-2/3)

x-2=-90/42

simplify -90/42 into -15/7

x-2=-15/7

x=-15/7+2

x=-15/7+14/7

x=-1/7
