Answer:

length of a single chain link = 5.33 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data: chain contained 1000 chain links

total length was 0.0533km

<em>1km = 1000m </em>

<em> 1m = 100cm therefore 1km = 100000cm</em>

<em />

total length in cm = 0.0533* 100000

total length in cm = 5330 cm

length of a single chain link = 5330/1000

length of a single chain link = 5.33 cm

If the product of two consecutive integers is decreased by 20 times the greater integer, the result is 442. find the integers
Contact [7]
Let the first integer be x.  Then the next consecutive integer is x+1.

Translating the word problem into symbols, x(x+1)-20(x+1) = 442.

Then x^2 + x - 20x - 20 = 442

or      x^2 - 19x - 462 = 0

Solve by completing the square:

          x^2 - 19x + 90.25 - 90.25 - 462 = 0

           (x-9.5)^2 - 552.25 = 0

Taking the positive square root of both sides, we get x-9.5 = 23.5, or
                                                                                    x        = 33

The two consecutive integers are 33 and 34.

Check:  (33)(34)-20(34) = 442 (as expected).

Distinguish between rote and rational counting​
sergejj [24]

Answer: There is a difference between rote counting and rational counting. Rote counting involves the memorization of numbers. Rational counting tells children "how many there are." For children to count rationally, they need to demonstrate one-to-one correspondence.

The equation y=2x represents a set of data. Which statement is not true?
Sonja [21]

Answer:

Option D is correct

The initial value is 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of line passes through the origin is represented by:

y = mx where m is the slope or unit rate .

Direct Proportionality says that:

if y \propto x then the equation of the form is y = kx where k is the constant of proportionality.

Given the equation: y = 2x

Then by definition:

m = 2

⇒ Slope on the line is 2.

⇒ the unit rate is 2.

Also, the constant of proportionality is 2.

Therefore, the statement which is not true for the equation y=2x represents a set of data is: The initial value is 2
