How do I round off to the nearest decimal place

1 answer:

3 0

First, find the digit in the place you are rounding to. Look at the digit one place to the right. If the digit is less than 5, round down. If the digit is 5 or greater, round up.
For example: round 1.86 to the nearest tenth
Look at the tenth digit (8). The number to the right of it is 6. Since it’s above 5, round the 8 up to 9. So you would get 1.9.

If it was 1.84, since 4 is less than 5, you would not round the 8, and you would get 1.8

Answer:

The differential equation is $\frac{dR}{dt} = -kR$

Step-by-step explanation:

Differential equation for the rate of change in radiation level:

Radiation level is R.

Rate of change indicates that the radiation level R varies in function of time t, which mathematically means that we have:

$\frac{dR}{dt}$

After the reactor is shut down, the radiation from the nitrogen-17 decreases in such a way that the rate of change in the radiation level is directly proportional to the radiation level.

Rate of change is k. Decreases means that k is negative. Proportional to the radiation level of R means that -k multiplies R. So the differential equation is:

$\frac{dR}{dt} = -kR$

If sin theta = -1/2 and lies in the third quadrant, what is the cos?

never [62]

Sin angle that equals the 1/2 value is the 30 degree on the 1st Quadrant.

The angle of 30 degree on the 3rd Quadrant is equivalent to (formula and circle in the 1st photo) 180 + 30 = 210°.

So theta = 210° (3rd Quadrant) = 30° (1st Quadrant).

$cos \: 30\degree = \sqrt{3} \div 2$

Now just transfer the cos 30° to the 3rd Quadrant and the signal will be negative (as shown in the 2nd photo attached).

$cos \: 210 \degree = - \sqrt{3} \div 2$
