Answer:

100,000

Explanation:

To round a number to the nearest hundred thousands, we need to check the digit in the ten thousands position:

1- If this digit is less than 5, we will round down. This means that the digit in the hundred thousands position will remain the same and all digits after it will be converted to zeroes

2- If this digit is equal to or greater than 5, we will round up. This means that we will add one to the digit in the hundred thousands position and convert all digit after it to zeroes

Now, the given number is:

89,659

The digit in the hundred thousands position is 0

The digit in the ten thousands position is 8 which is greater than 5. Therefore, we will round up following rule 2 written above

This means that 89,659 rounded to the nearest hundred thousands would be 100,000

Hope this helps :)

Well because the hundred thousandth place is 100,000 200,000 300,000 etc. then the nearest to 89,659 would be 100,000

Use the ruler to measure the length of Line segment R S to the nearest centimeter.

Over [174]

Answer:

Length of the line segment RS is, 18 cm.

Step-by-step explanation:

Two points are drawn on a ruler. Point R is located at 8 cm and Point S is located at 26 cm.

So, length of the line segment RS is,

(26 - 8) cm\

= 18 cm

We know that on a ruler if two points A and B are at a cm and b cm respectively, then, length of AB

= AB = $\mid b - a \mid$ cm .

A math teacher tells her students that eating a healthy breakfast on a test day will help their brain function and perform well

kogti [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Hello!

To test the claim that eating a healthy breakfast improves the performance of students on their test a math teacher randomly asked 46 students what did they have for breakfast before they took the final exam and classified them as:

Group 1: Ate healthy breakfast

X₁: Number of students that ate a healthy breakfast before the exam and earned 80% or higher.

n₁= 26

Group 2: Did not eat healthy breakfast

X₂: Number of students that did not eat a healthy breakfast before the exam and earned 80% or higher.

n₂= 20

After the test she counted the number of students that got 80% or more in the test for each group obtaining the following sample proportions:

p'₁= 0.50

p'₂= 0.40

The parameters of study are the population proportions, if the claim is true then p₁ > p₂

And you can determine the hypotheses as

H₀: p₁ ≤ p₂

H₁: p₁ > p₂

α: 0.05

$Z= \frac{(p'_1-p'_2)-(p_1-p_2)}{\sqrt{p'(1-p')[\frac{1}{n_1} +\frac{1}{n_2}] } } }$ ≈N(0;1)

pooled sample proportion: $p'= \frac{x_1+x_2}{n_1+n_2} =\frac{13+8}{46} = 0.46$

$Z_{H_0}= \frac{(0.5-0.4)-0}{\sqrt{0.46(1-0.46)[\frac{1}{26} +\frac{1}{20}] } } }= 0.67$

p-value: 0.2514

The decision rule is:

If p-value ≤ α, reject the null hypothesis.

If p-value > α, do not reject the null hypothesis.

The p-value: 0.2514 is greater than the significance level 0.05, the test is not significant.

At a 5% significance level you can conclude that the population proportion of math students that obtained at least 80% in the test and had a healthy breakfast is equal or less than the population proportion of math students that obtained at least 80% in the test and didn't have a healthy breakfast.

So having a healthy breakfast doesn't seem to improve the grades of students.

I hope this helps!

Shkiper50 [21]

Answer:

step 3: place the tip of the compass at point x and strike the arc at point y

Step-by-step explanation:

congruent triangles are triangles that have equal shape and size. They are the same in every way. this is the reason why they are called CONGRUENT

we have been asked to construct an angle MNT congruent to angle PQR. this means we are to construct angle that is the same as that at PQR.

with a ruler and a compass we can easily make a replica of the angle at PQR.

following the steps given in the question including step 3 that i have just added, the angle MNT will be the same as the angle PQR
