To round the figure 47,125 to the closest tenth, hundredth, and thousandth, it's essential to recognize the positions of these places. The tens position is the second digit from the right. The hundreds position is the third, and the thousands position is the digit immediately following the comma. For rounding to the tens place, you must inspect the digit directly behind it (the ones place) and evaluate. If this digit is between 0-4, you won’t round the tens place, but if it falls between 5-9, rounding is permissible. The same regulation applies when rounding up for the hundreds and thousands places. Consequently, the number arrived at is - 47,135.

Answer:

The number in question is 47,125.

When rounding to either the tens or hundreds, we bring the number closer to the nearest zero.

For rounding to the nearest ten, the result is: 47,130.

If we round to the nearest hundred, it results in: 47,100.

When rounded to the nearest thousand, the outcome is: 47,000.

Finally, rounding to the nearest ten thousand gives us: 50,000.

ΔMNO was dilated, then _____________, to create ΔYHQ.

babunello [11817]

The answer is rotated. When dilating figures, we either increase or decrease their dimensions. Knowing the scale factor is crucial as it indicates whether the figure enlarges or reduces; a positive scale factor suggests expansion, while a negative one indicates reduction. The center of dilation is where lines connecting the original and dilated shapes intersect. Conversely, to rotate a shape involves turning it around a designated fixed point known as the center of rotation.

You are given a rectangular sheet of cardboard that measures 11 in. by 8.5 in. (see the diagram below). A small square of the sa

AnnZ [12381]

Answer:

Terrence's

Step-by-step explanation:

The cut length of the square corresponds to the box height.

1. a

In Anya's approach: 8.5 - 1.5 = 7, 11 - 1.5 = 9.5; with the height being 1.5, the volume calculates as height x length x width = 1.5 x 9.5 x 7 = 99.75 square inches.

Terrence's method: 8.5 - 3 = 5.5, 11 - 3 = 8. Volume = 5.5 x 8 x 3 = 132 square inches. Clearly, 99.75 < 132 square inches, indicating Terrence's approach would yield a larger volume.

1. b

The dimensions of the box rely on the length, width, and height of the cardboard cutout, thus varying cutting measurements for the same cardboard size can produce different box dimensions.

2. Squares are cut from each corner, thus the combined size of the two squares on the cardboard must be less than the shorter cardboard side. The shorter side is 8.5 inches, which divided by 2 results in 4.25 inches, therefore squares cannot exceed this size. If squares are taken out measuring 4.25 inches, it will leave a strip 2.5 inches wide that cannot form a box.

To cut out squares of 5 inches, how you position them can cause overlap or extend beyond the cardboard. While 5 + 5 equals ten, making the longer side of 11 inches adequate, the 8.5 inches side allows zero room for the 10 inches.

Line RS intersects triangle BCD at two points and is parallel to segment DC. Triangle B C D is cut by line R S. Line R S goes th

Zina [12379]

Answer:

The correct statements are;

1) ΔBCD is similar to ΔBSR

2) BR/RD = BS/SC

3) (BR)(SC) = (RD)(BS)

Step-by-step explanation:

1) Since RS is parallel to DC, we conclude that;

∠BDC = ∠BRS (Angles formed on the same side of the transversal)

Furthermore;

∠BCD = ∠BSR (Angles formed on the same side of the transversal)

∠CBD = ∠CBD (Reflexive property)

Thus;

ΔBCD ~ ΔBSR by the Angle-Angle-Angle (AAA) similarity criterion.

2) Given that ΔBCD ~ ΔBSR, we obtain;

BC/BS = BD/BR → (BS + SC)/BS = (BR + RD)/BR = 1 + SC/BS = RD/BR + 1

1 + SC/BS = 1 + RD/BR thus, SC/BS = 1 + BR/RD - 1

SC/BS = RD/BR

By inverting both sides we find;

BR/RD = BS/SC

3) From BR/RD = BS/SC, we apply cross multiplication;

BR/RD = BS/SC leads to;

BR × SC = RD × BS → (BR)(SC) = (RD)(BS).
