Learning to estimate is quite straightforward, and I'm happy to share!

I'm in the 8th grade, so feel free to ask me anything!

Let's say you need to round a number.

For example, 452.

There are two methods you might use for rounding.

The first is to examine the 4 and the 5.

Check the number following the 4, which is the 5. That indicates how to round.

However, the adjacent numbers DO NOT need rounding!

If they are 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, you keep the number as is.

For instance, for the number

234

you would round it to 200 because the 3 is less than 5.

Next, consider rounding the tens place.

For instance, 458 is your target number.

Examine the 5, and look to its right; it's an 8. This is not 0, 1, 2, 3, or 4, which means you'll round up.

Consequently, the rounded figure becomes 460.

I hope this is beneficial!

Find the inverse of y=x2-10x
AnnZ [3911]
<span>This is quite challenging, but here’s the solution:
</span>

y = x^2 - 10x + 25 - 25

<span> y = (x-5)^2 - 25</span>

<span> y + 25 = (x-5)^2</span>

<span> x - 5 = ±sqrt(y+25)</span>

 

<span> You will derive TWO inverses:</span>

 

<span> x = 5 + sqrt(y+25),</span> for x ≥ 5

<span> x = 5 - sqrt(y+25),</span> for x ≤ 5

What is 0.002 1/10 of

<span>0.002 1/10 of what
=> (1/10)a = 0.002
=> Multiply both sides by 10 to solve for the unknown number, since we need the value whose one-tenth is 0.002.
=> 10 x (1/10)a = 10 x 0.002
=>  a = 0.02

Therefore, 0.002 is one-tenth of 0.02.
To verify, divide 0.02 by 10.
=> 0.02 / 10
=> 0.002
Hence, the solution is confirmed.

This isosceles triangle has two sides of equal length, a, that are longer than the length of the base, b. The perimeter of the t
Leona [4222]

B refers to the base of the triangle,
and a signifies the length of the two identical sides.


The measurement labeled as 'a' is larger than 'b' since those equal sides are longer than the base. Given "one of the longer sides measures 6.3 cm," we assign a = 6.3.


Substitute 6.3 for each 'a' in the equation and solve for b:
2a + b = 15.7
2(6.3) + b = 15.7
12.6 + b = 15.7
b = 15.7 - 12.6 (applying subtraction property of equality)
b = 3.1

Leona [4222]

Result:

20.19°

Detailed explanation:

Refer to the attached diagram related to the question. We need to determine <CAB

Utilizing the sine rule on triangle ABC:

\frac{4.5}{sin15^0} = \frac{6}{sin

cross-multiply

4.5 * sin

Thus, the angle <CAB measures 20.19°
