Answer:

The answers are:

nearest tenth: 243.9
nearest hundredth: 243.88
nearest ten: 240.00
nearest hundred: 200.00

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to determine the answer, we have to know about notation numbers.

In any number, every digit has a notation, depending on its position.

I have attached an image that shows some notation numbers.

Also, if we want to round the number, we have to see the position of the cut and the next digit.

There is a rule:

If the "next digit" is equal or greater than 5, we have to increase "the cut number" in one unit.

If the "next digit" is lesser than 5, "the cut number" does not change.

In this case, for 243.875:

nearest tenth:

cut number=8

next digit=7

rounded number=243.9

nearest hundredth:

cut number=7

next digit=5

rounded number=243.88

nearest ten:

cut number=4

next digit=3

rounded number=240.00

nearest hundred:

cut number=2

next digit=4

rounded number=200.00

Given that r||s and q is a transversal, we know that by the [________]. corresponding angles theorem alternate interior angles t

neonofarm [45]

Answer:

alternate interior angles theorem

Step-by-step explanation:

The alternate interior angles theorem states that when two parallel lines are cut by a transversal, the resulting angles produced are a pair of congruent alternate interior angles.

Given the image attached below, both line k and line l are parallel to each other and also, line t is the transversal, therefore the resulting congruent alternate interior angles produced are:

∠ 4 ≅ ∠6, ∠1 ≅ ∠7

A fisherman catches fish according to a Poisson process with rate lambda = 0.6 per hour. The fisherman will keep fishing for two

spayn [35]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that a fisherman catches fish according to a Poisson process with rate lambda = 0.6 per hour.

The fisherman will keep fishing for two hours.

Since he continues till he gets atleast one fish, we can calculate probability as follows:

(a) Find the probability that he stays for more than two hours.

= Prob (x=0) in I two hours and P(X≥1) in 3rd hour

=P(x=0)*P(X=0)*P(X≥1) (since each hour is independent of the other)

= $0.5488^2*(1-0.8781)\\\\=0.2645$

(b) Find the probability that the total time he spends fishing is between two and five hours.

Prob that he does not get fish in I two hours * prob he gets fish between 3 and 5 hours

= $P(0)^2 *F(1)^3\\=0.5488^2*0.2645^3\\=0.00557$

Expected value in Geometric distribution = $\frac{1-p}{p}$ , where p = prob of getting 1 fish in one hour

= $\frac{0.6}{1-0.6} \\=3$

(d) Find the expected total fishing time, given that he has been fishing for four hours.

= Expected fishing time total/expected fishing time for 4 hours

=3/0.6*4

= 1.25 hours

Joseph received a $20 gift card for downloading music. Each downloaded song costs $1.29. Explain how to write and solve an inequ

poizon [28]

Let x be the number of songs downloaded.
Each song is $1.29; the total cost would be found by multiplying the cost by the number of songs, or 1.29x.
This cannot be more than 20, so we set this less than or equal to 20:
1.29x ≤ 20.

To solve this, we divide both sides by 1.29: 
 $\frac{1.29x}{1.29}$ ≤ $\frac{20}{1.29}$ ;
x ≤15.5.

We cannot download half of a song, so we round this down to 15 (although the number rounds up mathematically, he would not have enough money to download 16 songs). This means he can download at most 15 songs.

The orbit of the planet Venus is nearly circular. An astronomer develops a model for the orbit in which the sun has coordinates

klio [65]

Since the Venus orbits round the sun, the sun is the center of the circular path of the revolution of the planet, Venus.

Thus, the distance of the planet, Venus fron the sun is given by the distance between the points (0, 0) and (41, 53).

Recall that the distance between two points $(x_1, y_1)$ and $(x_2, y_2)$ is given by $d= \sqrt{(x_2-x_1)^2+(y_2-y_1)^2}$

Thus, the distance between the points (0, 0) and (41, 53) is given by:

$d= \sqrt{(41-0)^2+(53-0)^2} \\ \\ = \sqrt{41^2+53^2} = \sqrt{1,681+2,809} \\ \\ = \sqrt{4,490} =67 \ units$

Given that each unit of the plane represents 1 million miles, therefore, the distance from the sun to the Venus is 67 million miles.

Harriet earns the same amount of money each day. Her gross pay at the end of 7 work days is 35h + 56 dollars. Which expression r

scoray [572]

In the question "Harriet earns the same amount of money each day. Her gross pay at the end of 7 work days is 35h + 56 dollars. Which expression represents her gross pay each day" To obtain the expression that represents her gross pay each day, we divide the given expression by 7 to get (35h + 56) / 7 = 35h / 7 + 56 / 7 = 5h + 8 Therefore, the expression that represents her gross pay each day is 5h + 8.
