How do you know just by looking at the "Density" column that the student made errors in his investigation?

Answers

Answer 1

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  we expect the results to have less spread

Step-by-step explanation:

The spread between the maximum and minimum is almost 1/3 of the average of those values (0.8 vs 2.6). We expect repeated measurements of the same physical value to be well within 5% of their mean if they are done carefully.

The investigation has errors because the spread is too great.

Round 733,712 to the nearest thousand
733,712 ~

Answers

Answer:

734,000

Step-by-step explanation:

The thousands digit is the fourth digit from the right (1000) so we start by underlining that digit.

733,712

Look at the digit to the right of the underlined digit. If the number is 5 or more, add one to the underlined digit. Since 7 is 5 or more, we add one to the underlined digit.

All of the digits behind the underlined digits turn to zeros to hold the place values.

cara is making a beaded necklace for a gift. she wants to spend more than $25 because she doesn´t want to seem like a cheap friend but no more than $60 because she isn´t that good of a friend either.the bead store charges $3 for large beads and $2 for small beads.if she buys 5 large beads, how many small beads can she buy to stay within her budget.

Answers

Answer:

5 small beads!

Step-by-step explanation:

Hey there!

If large beads are $3 each, and she buys 5 of them, our equation is $3 x 5 which equals $15. So Cara will spend $15 buying large beads.

Cara has $10 left now, because $25 - $15 = $10. Since each small bead is $2, we divide $10 (the total amount of money she has) by $2 (the cost of each bead). This will tell us how many she can buy! So $10 ÷ $2 is 5. Cara can buy 5 small beads!

Answers

Answer:

186cm im pretty sure

Step-by-step explanation:

Answer:

The perimeter is 186 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

The perimeter is the combination of all the side lengths of a figure. So, to figure this one out, it would be:

31 + 31 + 31 + 31 + 31 + 31

Or in simpler terms:

31 times 6.

Container R holds a solution that is 20% alcohol and Container S holds a solution that is 60% alcohol. How many liters of solution from each container should be used to create 2 liters of solution that is 50% alcohol?
*make two equations*

Answers

Answer:

The number of liters for container R = x = 0.5 liters

The number of liters for container S = y = 1.5 liters.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of liters of container R = x

Let the number of liters of container S = y

We are told in the question : that

Container R holds a solution that is 20% alcohol

= 20% × x = 0.20x

Container S holds a solution that is 60% alcohol.

= 60% × y = 0.60y

How many liters of solution from each container should be used to create 2 liters of solution that is 50% alcohol?

Hence;

x + y = 2 ....... Equation 1

x = 2 - y

0.20x + 0.60y = 2 × 50%

0.20x + 0.60y = 1........ Equation 2

Substitute

2-y for x in Equation 3

0.20(2 - y) + 0.60y = 1

0.40 - 0.20y + 0.60y = 1

Collect like terms

0.40y = 1 - 0.40

0.40y = 0.60

y = 0.60/0.40

y = 1.5 liters

Note that :

x = 2 - y

x = 2 - 1.5

x = 0.5 liters

Therefore,

the number of liters for container R = x = 0.5 liters

the number of liters for container S = y = 1.5 liters.
