If you want to round 98.155 to the nearest tenth, it is 98.2.
The 1 is in the tenths place.
If the number to the right of it is 5 or more, round up.
If the number to the right of it is 4 or less, round down.
In this case, you round the digit in the tenths place up because the digit in the <em>hundredths</em> place is 5+.
1) The solution for m² - 5m - 14 = 0 are x=7 and x=-2.
2)The solution for b² - 4b + 4 = 0 is x=2.
<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:
The general form of quadratic equation is ax²+bx+c = 0
where
- a is the coefficient of x².
- b is the coefficient of x.
- c is the constant term.
<u>To find the roots :</u>
- Sum of the roots = b
- Product of the roots = c
1) The given quadratic equation is m² - 5m - 14 = 0.
From the above equation, it can be determined that b = -5 and c = -14
The roots are -7 and 2.
- Sum of the roots = -7+2 = -5
- Product of the roots = -7
2 = -14
The solution is given by (x-7) (x+2) = 0.
Therefore, the solutions are x=7 and x= -2.
2) The given quadratic equation is b² - 4b + 4 = 0.
From the above equation, it can be determined that b = -4 and c = 4
The roots are -2 and -2.
- Sum of the roots = -2-2 = -4
- Product of the roots = -2
-2 = 4
The solution is given by (x-2) (x-2) = 0.
Therefore, the solution is x=2.
Answer:
The reason for the columns adding up to 1 is that each individual consumes a proportion or a fraction of the total quantity produced under each product category and every product is consumed. There is no leftover.
When the proportions of all the individuals are added up, the sum is always 1 under each product category because each individual can only consume a part of the whole.
