A decimal number changed to 23.7 after it was rounded. Give a decimal number that is less than 23.7 and another that is greater
mrs_skeptik [129]

Two <em>possible answers</em> are:

23.65 and 23.72.

Explanation:

For the first number, 23.65, we are rounding to the tenths place. 23.65 itself is smaller than 23.7. Looking behind the tenths place, the digit behind it is 5. This means we round the tenths place up; this becomes 23.7.

23.72 is larger than 23.7. We will round it to the tenths place as well. Looking behind the tenths place, we have a 2; this means we "round down." This means leave the 7 as it is and drop the other digits behind it. This gives us 23.7.

Identify the 12th term of the arithmetic sequence in which a7 = 40 and a18 = 106.
Lady_Fox [76]

we are given

airthematic sequence

we can use nth term formula

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

n is number of terms

an is nth term

d is common difference

a1 is first term

We are given

a7=40

we can use it

a_7=a_1+(7-1)d

40=a_1+6d

a_1+6d=40

a18 = 106

a_1_8=a_1+(18-1)d

a_1+17d=106

we can subtract both equations

a_1+17d-a_1-6d=106-40

11d=66

d=6

now, we can find a1

a_1+6d=40

we can plug d=6

a_1+6*6=40

a_1=4

12th term:

a_1_2=a_1+(12-1)d

now, we can plug values

a_1_2=4+(12-1)*6

a_1_2=4+66

a_1_2=70

so, 12th term is 70...........Answer

solve "in muddy lake, 600 fish were tagged. later, 12 out 480 fish were found tagged. about how many fish are in the lake?"
Readme [11.4K]
We estimate that 12/480=1/40 fish are tagged, so 600 is 1/40 of the total number of fish. This means that there are about 600*40=24000 fish total in the pond.

andreyandreev [35.5K]
This is the concept of application of the Pythagorean theorem. The resultant speed of the motorboat which is crossing the river that has a northward current of 5 m/s at a speed of 8 m/s will be given by:
c^2=a^2+b^2
c^2=8^2+5^2
c^2=64+25
c^2=89
c=sqrt89
c=9.4 m/s
