Answer:
<u></u>
- <u>Yes, she has enough water.</u>
Explanation:
To <em>estimate</em> the value, you can work with friendly numbers: numbers closed to the given numbers and with which you can perform easy mental calculations.
For example 4.55 may be rouned to 5, 4.85 may be rounded to 5, and 3.25 may be rounded to 3. That yields 5 + 5 + 3 = 13
Then, it seems you have about 13 liters. Is the final number equal or greater than 12 for sure?
To round 4.55 to 5 you increased the amount in 0.45, to round 4.85 to 5 you increased the amount by 0.15, and to round 3.25 to 3 you decreased the amount in 0.25.
What was the net change in your values: 0.45 + 0.15 - 0.25 = 0.60 - 0.25 = 0.35. Those are easy calculations that you can perform in your mind.
That means that you increased your total in less than 1 liter. Meaning that the final total is overestimated by 0.35, and that if you used the real amounts to make the calculations, the total will be still more than 12.
I suck at math to I’m so so sorry Ask a tutor they will help
First convert the rate into a decimal.
8/100=0.08
Next put all those numbers 15,000, 0.08, and 6 into the equation A=P(1+(rt)).
This is how you do it.
A=15,000(1+(0.08*6))
A=15,000(1+0.48)
A=15,000(1.48)
A=22,200
I got 25/21 or 1 4/21, but there’s a possibility I could’ve made a mistake in my math so you should double check it just in case.
6.083 would be the answer
