HELP ROUND 604703.472883 TO THE NEAREST HUNDRED

Answers

 the nearest hundreds....604700

Answer:

The required number is 604703

Step-by-step explanation:

Consider the provided number 604703.472883

The rule for rounding a number is:

If the number on the right side of rounding digit is 0, 1, 2, 3, 4 then no need to change the rounding digit and change the rest of the digit right to rounding digit with 0.

If the number on the right side of rounding digit is 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 then rounding digit rounds up by one number  and change the rest of the digit right to rounding digit with 0.

The number on the hundred place is 7 and the number on right side is 0.

Thus, no need to change the rounding digit and change the rest of the digit right to rounding digit with 0.

Hence, the required number is 604703

Alyosha and Ivan are standing between two buildings they know to be equal height. The buildings are 500 feet apart. Looking up at the westernmost building, they form a 30 degree angle. Looking to the northeastern building, they form a 45 degree angle.

A) Ivan guesses they are halfway between the buildings. Why is this a bad guess?

B) How far away from each building are they?

Answers

Refer to the diagram shown below.

h = height of each building
x =  distance from the left building
y =  distance from the right building

Because the distance between the buildings is 500 feet, therefore
x + y = 500    (1)

By definition,
tan 45° = h/y = 1
y = h             (2)

Also,
tan 30° = h/x = 1/√3
x = h√3        (3)

Part (a)
If Alyosha and Ivan were halfway between the building, then x = y.
Because x ≠ y, they are not halfway between the buildings.

Part (b)
From (1), (2) and (3), obtain
h + h√3 = 500
h(1+√3) = 500
2.732h = 500
h = 183.0 ft

Therefore
x = 183.0 ft
y = 500 - x = 317.0 ft

Answer:
Alyosha and Ivan are 183 feet from the left building, and 317 feet from the right building.

10/12 = 0.833
0.199

greatest value is : 8/3

Answer:

[tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex] is the greatest value.

Step-by-step explanation:

The given numbers are [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex], 2.28, [tex]\frac{10}{12}[/tex], 0.199

In this question we have to find out greatest value.

So, first we convert all the values in decimals.

To convert [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex] in decimal form, we divide 8 by 3. The answer would be 2.67

2.28

[tex]\frac{10}{12}[/tex] = 0.83

0.199

Now we arrange these numbers in the increasing order.

0.199 < 0.83 < 2.28 < 2.67

So the greatest number is 2.67 that is [tex]\frac{8}{3}[/tex].

A rectangular vegetable garden will have a width that is 3 feet less than the length, and an area of 54 square feet. if x represents the length, then the length can be found by solving the equation: x(x−3)=54x(x-3)=54 what is the length, x, of the garden? the length is _____ feet.

Answers

To determine the length of the rectangular flower garden, we need to derive equations from the given measurements and relations. The given measurements are the area, and the relation of the width and the length. From these, we generate the equation needed. We do as follows:

Area = Length x Width

where length = x ft
           width = x - 3 ft
           area = 54 ft^2

54 ft^2 = x ft (x -3) ft
54 ft^2 = x^2 - 3x ft^2

Solving for the value of x, we will have two values which are
x = -6 ft ( NOTE: this value can't be the answer since we cannot have a negative value for the length)
x = 9 ft = length

Answer

Length of rectangular garden = x feet

As, Width is 3 feet less than Length.

Width = (x-3 ) feet

Area of Rectangle = Length × Breadth

Area = 54 square feet

→54 = x × (x-3)

→ x²-3 x-54=0

Splitting the Middle term

→x² - 9  x + 6 x- 54=0

→x × (x-9)+6 × (x-9)=0

→ (x+6)(x-9)=0

→x+6=0 ∧ x-9=0

x≠-6, as length can't be negative.

So, x=9

Length of Rectangular garden = 9 feet

Completing the square with fractions involves transforming the quadratic equation into a perfect square trinomial by adding the square of half the coefficient of x to both sides. This enables solving the equation more easily by then taking the square root of both sides and isolating x.

Completing the square using fractions involves a few steps tailored to work with fractional coefficients. To make it understandable, let's explain the process step by step:

Start with the quadratic equation and ensure it is in the form ax2 + bx + c = 0.Divide all terms by 'a' (the coefficient of x2) if 'a' is not equal to 1, to make the coefficient of x2 equal to 1.Rearrange the equation so that the constant 'c' is on the other side of the equation.Take half of the coefficient of x, which is now 'b/a', and square it. This value is added both sides of the equation to form a perfect square on one side.Rewrite the left side of the equation as a squared binomial.Finally, solve for x by taking the square root of both sides and then add or subtract the constant term.

For example, let's complete the square for the equation x2 + (3/2)x = 4. We take half of the coefficient of x, (3/2)/2 or 3/4, and square it to get 9/16. Adding 9/16 to both sides gives us (x + 3/4)2 = 4 + 9/16. Simplify the right side to get a single fraction, and then proceed to solve for x. Additionally, in some scenarios, we might need to multiply both the numerator and denominator by a skillfully chosen factor, such as 1/2, to facilitate simplifying or cancelling out terms.

I think it is always proportional. When sellers negotiate with the buyers, they always set prices for every number of goods or service that you ask for. Sometimes, they may lower their prices if you choose to buy wholesale. But these are still based on proportions. For example, if you buy a single shirt, it would cost $10. Now, if you buy at least 50 shirts, then each shirt would now cost $5. There is still proportion as basis to determine the total cost.

How to determine if a series has a sum?

Answers

You can use sigma notation to represent an infinite series. For example, ∞∑n=110(12)n−1 is an infinite series. The infinity symbol that placed above the sigma notation indicates that the series is infinite. To find the sum of the above infinite geometric series, first check if the sum exists by using the value of r .
The only general answer is to say that by checking that as more terms of the series are added, the partial sum of all those terms converges. It does not need to have a geometric convergence, so unfortunately you can't use the ratio os the geometric series. If your series were only geometric, then yes, if |r|<1. But in general, only if the partial sums are convergent, that is if the more terms you add, the result changes closer and closer to zero.

It can be written mathematically, such that there exists a term k for which the sum from k to infinity is bounded, but you may not need all the jargon.

Again, make sure there was not an assumption about a specific type of series, like geometric, which is the one considered in the other answer

Denise is a professional swimmer who trains, in part, by running. she would like to estimate the average number of miles she runs in each week. for a random sample of 20 weeks, the mean is = 17.5 miles with standard deviation s = 3.8 miles. find a 99% confidence interval for the population mean number of miles denise runs. use a graphing calculator for this one and not the t chart from the book.

Answers

Given:
n = 20, sample size
xbar = 17.5, sample mean
s = 3.8, sample standard deiation
99% confidence interval

The degrees of freedom is 
df = n-1 = 19

We do not know the population standard deviation, so we should determine t* that corresponds to df = 19.
From a one-tailed distribution, 99% CI means using a p-value of 0.005.
Obtain
t* = 2.8609.

The 99% confidence interval is
xbar +/- t*(s/√n)

t*(s/√n) = 2.8609*(3.8/√20) = 2.4309
The 99% confidence interval is
(17.5 - 2.4309, 17.5 + 2.4309) = (15.069, 19.931)

Answer: The 99% confidence interval is (15.07, 19.93)
Final answer:

Using a 99% confidence level and the given data, the confidence interval for Denise's average weekly running mileage can be calculated using the sample mean, standard deviation, and z-score for the confidence level.

Explanation:

Denise, a professional swimmer, uses her running mileage as part of her training analysis. To estimate the population mean for the number of miles she runs weekly, we will calculate the 99% confidence interval using the sample mean and standard deviation from her 20 weeks of data. The formula for a confidence interval is:

CI = mean ± (z* × (s/sqrt(n)))

Where mean is the sample mean, z* is the z-score corresponding to the desired confidence level, s is the sample standard deviation, and n is the sample size.

The given data for Denise's running mileage is a mean (μ) of 17.5 miles and standard deviation (s) of 3.8 miles with a sample size (n) of 20 weeks. Since the sample size is greater than 30, we can use the z-distribution to approximate the t-distribution.

To find the appropriate z-score for a 99% confidence interval, we can use a graphing calculator or a z-table. The z-score for a 99% confidence level is approximately 2.576. Plugging the values into the confidence interval formula:

CI = 17.5 ± (2.576 × (3.8/sqrt(20)))

Calculating the margins of error and applying them to the sample mean, we will obtain the confidence interval for the average number of miles Denise runs in a week.

4x-5=4x+10 solve for x

Answers

Final answer:

The equation 4x - 5 = 4x + 10 has no solution because subtracting 4x from both sides yields -5 = 10, which is a contradiction.

Explanation:

The equation 4x - 5 = 4x + 10 cannot be solved for x in the usual way because attempting to isolate x on one side will result in a contradiction. If we subtract 4x from both sides of the equation, we get -5 = 10, which is not true for any value of x. Therefore, this equation has no solution.

A certain bag of potting soil is 1/4 peat moss,and the rest is dirt. What part is dirt?

Answers

1-1/4

4/4-1/4

3/4

So 3/4 bag is dirt. 
Answer:

The part of the bag that consist of dirt is:

                                  3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the amount of peat moss  that is present in a bag of potting soil is:

                              1/4

Hence, the remaining space that is left in the bag consist of dirt.

Remaining space is calculated as :

                          [tex]1-\dfrac{1}{4}\\\\\\=\dfrac{3}{4}[/tex]

( Since we subtract 1/4 from a whole of a bag)

Hence, the part that is dirt in the bag of potting soil is:

                                  3/4

Which sequence is geometric and has 1/4 as its fifth term and 1/2 as the common ratio?

Answers

Any geometric sequence can be expressed as:

a(n)=ar^(n-1)  we are told that the fifth term is 1/4 and the common ratio is 1/2 so:

1/4=a(1/2)^(5-1)

1/4=a(1/2)^4

1/4=a/16  multiply both sides by 16

16/4=a

4=a, so this sequence is:

a(n)=4(1/2)^(n-1)
