Answer:

TO find out how much each elephant weighs you simply have to do 11, 894 divided by 6. Since the answer is a decimal (1982.33333333), I would just round it to the nearest tenth as it dosent specify where we have to round it to. SO, 1982.33333333 rounded to the nearest tenth is 1982.3

The following is a student’s work when solving for y. There is a mistake in the work. What is the mistake? What is the correct a

laila [671]

Answer:

Part 1

The mistake is Step 2: P + 2·x = 2·y

Part 2

The correct answer is

Step 2 correction: P - 2·x = 2·y

(P - 2·x)/2 = y

Step-by-step explanation:

Part 1

The student's steps are;

Step 1; P = 2·x + 2·y

Step 2: P + 2·x = 2·y

Step 3: P + 2·x/2 = y

The mistake in the work is in Step 2

The mistake is moving 2·x to the left hand side of the equation by adding 2·x to <em>P </em>to get; P + 2·x = 2·y

Part 2

To correct method to move 2·x to the left hand side of the equation, leaving only 2·y on the right hand side is to subtract 2·x from both sides of the equation as follows;

Step 2 correction: P - 2·x = 2·x + 2·y - 2·x = 2·x - 2·x + 2·y = 2·y

∴ P - 2·x = 2·y

(P - 2·x)/2 = y

y = (P - 2·x)/2

A dilation is a nonrigid transformation that can produce enlarged or reduced images from a given pre-image. How do you know that

Marat540 [252]

A dilation can elongate or diminish a figure. It can create an image the same as the original by using a scale factor. The scale factor of a dilation is the ratio of corresponding side lengths. To dilate a polygon, multiply the coordinates of each vertex by the scale factor k and connect the vertices.

$\huge \boxed{ \boxed{ \red{{s \approx \: 10.47}}}}$

Step-by-step explanation:

<h3>to understand this</h3><h3>you need to know about:</h3>

geometry
PEMDAS

<h3>tips and formulas:</h3>

$s = \frac{\pi {r} \theta}{180}$

<h3>given:</h3>

r=10
$\theta = 60$

<h3>let's solve:</h3>

$\sf sustitute \: the \: value s \: of \: \theta \: and \: r : \\ =\frac{\pi \times 10 \times 60}{180}$
$\sf rediuce \: 60 : \\ =\frac{\pi \times 10 \times \cancel{60} \: ^{1} }{ \cancel{180} \: \:^{3} } \\ =\frac{\pi \times 10}{3}$
$\sf use \: 3.14 \: for \: \pi : \\ = \frac{3.14 \times 10}{3}$
$\sf simplify \: multipication : \\ = \frac{31.4}{3} \\ \approx \: 10.47$
