Answer: 59.5 ≤ r ≤ 60.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that :

Accuracy range = ±0.5 of true value

True height of rain (r) = 60mm

Absolute value equation to find the least and greatest height if rain possible ;

|r| = 0.5

To remove the absolute value sign ;

|r| ± 0.5

r = 60mm

60 - 0.5 ≤ r ≤ 60 + 0.5

59.5mm ≤ r ≤ 60.5mm

Hence,

Greatest height possible = 60.5mm

Least height possible = 59.5 mm

At the time of her grandson's birth, a grandmother deposits $12,000.00 in an account that pays 2% compound monthly. What will be that value of the account at the child's twenty-first birthday, assuming that no other deposits or withdrawls are made during the period.
---
A(t) = P(1+(r/n))^(nt)
---
A(21) = 12000(1+(0.02/12))^(12*21)
---
A(21) = 12000(1.5214)

On a recent road trip, Mr. Yost drove 210 miles in 3 1/2 hours. Find both the miles driven per hour and the hours driven per mil
amid [387]

Miles driven per hour is 60 miles per hour

Hours driven per mile is 0.01667 hours per mile

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that,

On a recent road trip, Mr. Yost drove 210 miles in 3 1/2 hours

Therefore,

Miles driven = 210 miles

Time\ taken = 3\frac{1}{2}\ hour = \frac{7}{2} = 3.5\ hour

To find: miles driven per hour and the hours driven per mile

<h3><u>Miles driven per hour</u></h3>

\frac{miles}{hour} = \frac{210}{3.5}\\\\\frac{miles}{hour} = 60\ miles\ per\ hour

<h3><u>Hours driven per mile</u></h3>

\frac{hours}{miles} = \frac{3.5}{210}\\\\\frac{hours}{miles} = 0.01667\ hours\ per\ miles

Thus both the miles driven per hour and the hours driven per mile are found

George still has 40 percent of his book to read. If George has read 180 pages, how many pages does he still have to read? How do
beks73 [17]

Answer:  72

Step-by-step explanation:    so you do a line = line method the lines should look like they are fractions.  

you do it for the both numbers the percent is always out of 100.

it should look like this

40%            ?

--------- = -----------    

100%       180

then you cross multiply 40 and 180 and than divide it by 100.   your answer should be 72.    you later replace the ? with 72

you know this because It is smaller than 180 and its bigger than the number 40.
