Calculate the difference 12.0875 – 7.50 using significant digits.

A. 4.5
B. 4.587
C. 4.59
D. 4.6

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

C. 4.59

Step-by-step explanation:

Significant digits are digits expressing precision of a measurement. Non-zero digits are always significant but zeroes can be either included or ignored. For instance, zeroes that comes before other digits aren't significant. For example 0.058 has two significant digits. In this exercise, we have two numbers:

12.0875

7.50

The number 12.0875 has five significant digits while 7.50 has three significant digits. If we add or subtract two numbers, the least number of decimal places (that isn't the same as significant digits) in any of the two numbers must be the same as the number of decimal places in the result. Hence, for 12.0875 we have four decimal places and for 7.50 we have two decimal places. Therefore, the result must have two decimal places:

12.0875 - 7.50 = 4.59

Answer 2
The Answer is C. 4.59

William had $45 dollars to spend on vegetables. After buying 6 watermelons, he had $25.50 left. How much did each watermelon cost?

Answers

45-25.50 = 19.50 spent
19.5 / 6 = 3.25 per watermelon

Let us suppose cost of 1 watermelon be x.

Cost of 6 watermelons = 6x.

It is given after buying 6 watermelons, he had $25.50 left.Total amount William spends on vegetable is $45.

We can form an equation with above information's

6x+25.50=45

To solve for x we isolate the x term .25.50 is added to the x term .

Opposite of addition is subtraction .Subtracting 25.50 both sides we have:

6x=45-25.50

6x=19.50

Dividing both sides by 6

x=3.25.

Cost of each watermelon is $3.25.


If the cos of angle x is 8/17 and the triangle was displayed to be two times big as the original what would be the value of the cos of x for the dilated triangle

Answers

Answer: The value of cos(x) of the dilated triangle would be exactly the same as in the first triangle, cos(8/17).

The cosine ratio is a ratio of two sides. 

In the first triangle the ratio is 8/17.

In the second triangle the ratio is 16/34. This could be reduced back to 8/17 which would produce the same cosine value.

The value of cos of angle x of the dilated triangle would be exactly the same as in the first triangle cos (8/17).

How does dilation work?

Dilation of a figure will leave its sides get scaled (multiplied) by same number. That number is called the scale factor of that dilation.

Its also called scaling of a figure, but due the involvement of coordinates, it involves a center of a dilation, which is like a pinned point which stays at same place after dilation.

Its like we enlarge or shorten the size of the figure (or keep it same, when scale factor = 1)

The cosine ratio is a ratio of the two sides.

We have been given If the cos of angle x is 8/17 and the triangle was displayed to be two times big as the original.

In the first triangle, the ratio is 8/17.

Aug 13.75
Sept 12.5
Oct 11
Nov 9.75
Dec 9.25

Write the equation that best models the data.

What is the expected number of daylight hours in March 2020? Explain.

Answers

For a better understanding of the solution provided here please go through the graph in the attachment. Please note that the solution provided here will be an approximate solution.

In the graph, the x axis is the number of months. 1 is January, 2 is February, so on and so forth.

The y axis is the expected number of daylight hours in those months. Each point has been depicted in the graph as shown.

Now, when we look at the graph we notice a pattern. The graph is nearly a cosine graph. Thus the equation that will best model the data will be an equation of the cosine form and will look like:

[tex] y=A cos(\omega t)+B [/tex]

where symbols have their usual meanings.

Let us find each term now:

We know that in December, the expected number of daylight hours is 9.25 hours. Thus, let us assume that the expected number of daylight hours in previous December was 9.25 hours too.

With this assumption let us proceed.

Amplitude=[tex] \frac{Highest - Lowest}{2} =\frac{15-9.25}{2} =2.875 [/tex]

The Vertical Shift Up is B=[tex] \frac{9.25+15}{2} = 12.125[/tex]

Also, the frequency can be calculated as: [tex] \omega=\frac{2\pi}{Period}= \frac{2\pi}{12}=\frac{\pi}{6} [/tex]

Thus, plugging in all the values, the final equation will be:

[tex] y=-2.875cos(\frac{\pi}{6}t)+12.125 [/tex]....(Equation 1)

The negative value of A suggests that the function starts below the horizontal y=12.125 line.

The above is the (Equation 1) that best models the given data.

Now, to find the expected number of daylight hours in March 2020, we just have to find the value of the time, t from January 2015 to March 2020.

Now, we know that each year has 12 months. So, 5 years from start of 2015 to end of 2019 will have 12 x 5=60 months. We need to add to this the first three months of the year 2020 to take us till March 2020. Thus, the value of t from January 2015 to March 2020 is 63.

Now, let us use the (Equation 1) to find the value of expected number of daylight in March 2020 by plugging in t=63 in it.

Thus,

Expected number of daylight in March 2020 is:

[tex] y=-2.875cos(\frac{\pi}{6}\times 63)+12.125 [/tex]

[tex] \therefore y=12.125 [/tex] hours.

Answers

tax rate = ( $9,525,000 / $196,000,000 ) * 100% = 4.9%

Answer:

B. 4.9%.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the assessed value of property in Enterprise County is $196,000,000. The county supervisors feel the county needs $9,525,000 in revenue.

To find the tax rate we need to find $9,525,000 is what percent of $196,000,000.

[tex]\text{Tax rate}=\frac{\$9,525,000}{\$196,000,000}\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Tax rate}=0.0485969387755102\times 100[/tex]

[tex]\text{Tax rate}=4.85969387755102\%[/tex]

Upon rounding our answer to nearest tenth of percent we will get,

[tex]\text{Tax rate}\approx 4.9\%[/tex]

Therefore, the tax rate is 4.9% and option B is the correct choice.

Answers

1. To solve this exercise, you must use the "Intersecting chords theorem".

2. You have that:

AP=3.5 in
PC=6 in
DP=4 in

3. Then, by applying the "Intersecting chord theorem", you have:

(AP)(PC)=(BP)(DP)

4. When you substitute the values into (AP)(PC)=(BP)(DP), you obtain:

(3.5 in)(6 in)/BP(4 in)

5. Now, you must clear BP. Then:

(3.5 in)(6 in)/4 in=BP
21 in^2/4 in=BP

6. Therefore, the value of BP is:

BP=5.25 in

Okay. So the song lasts 221 seconds. 45 seconds have already beem done and 22 seconds is done in an hour. The equation would be set up like this:

45 + 22h = 221

Just by looking at the answer choices, A is already eliminated because it doesn't incorportate the 45 seconds. B does include the 45 seconds, but it subtracts, and in this case, we add time, not subtract. D is eliminated, because the h variable does not go with 45. The only equation that works is C and when you solve it, you get 8 hours. The answer is C.

Note: you solve the equation above by subtract 45 from both sides to get 176 = 22x, and dividing both sides by 22 to get x = 8.

A stadium that seats 35,000 is slowly filling up with fans. The game starts at four o’clock. At noon the stadium owner estimates there are 4,000 fans who have already arrived early. At one o’clock he estimates just over 11,000 fans have found their seats and they appear to be coming in at a steady rate. He knows his stadium will be more than ninety percent full by game time. Choose the function below that best models this situation and tracks attendance from Noon to game time.

A. f(x)= .90x + 4,000
B. f(x)= 7,000x + 4,000
C. f(x)= 4,000x + 4,000
D. f(x)= 11,000x + 4,000

Answers

Answer:

B. f(x) = 7000x + 4000

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the best function for this situation, we need to list down all the things that we know first.

We currently have:

35000 total seats

4000 fans

11000 fans after an hour

So that means that after an hour, we had:

11000 fans - 4000 fans = 7000 fans

At one o'clock we had 7000 more fans arrive.

So we can assume that:

x = number of hours

f(x) = 7000x + 4000 will be the best function to use to find out if there that 90% of the stadium will be filled by game time.

To test this function let's use it:

f(1) = 7000(1) + 4000

f(1) = 11000

This is after hour 1.

Now let's see after hour 4 since the game starts at 4.

f(4) = 7000(4) + 4000

f(4) = 28000 + 4000

f(4) = 32000

So 90% of 35000 is:

35000 x 0.90 = 31500

By game time we have 32000 fans which is above 90% of the total number of seats.

So the stadium owners estimate is correct.
