You are solving a measurement problem where the numbers 2.09*10^(9) and 4.053 × 10^−4 are divided. How many significant digits should the quotient have?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

  3

Step-by-step explanation:

You want to know the appropriate number of significant digits in the quotient of measurements 2.09×10^9 and 4.053×10^-4.

Significant digits

The number of significant digits in a number written in scientific notation is the count of digits in the mantissa. Numbers with more significant digits are considered to be more precise.

  2.09×10^9 . . . . has 3 significant digits

  4.053×10^-4 . . . . has 4 significant digits

Product or Quotient

When imprecise numbers are multiplied or divided, the resulting product or quotient cannot be more precise than the least precise number used. The quotient of numbers with 3 and 4 significant digits will only have 3 significant digits.

Carlos' pay stub is shown. What is his net
pay? Round to the nearest cent.

Gross Pay (Wages)
Medicare
Social Security (6.2%)
Federal Withholding
Income Tax (19%)
Gross Pay-$1,800.00
Medicare-$26.10
Social Security (6.2%)-?
Federal Withholding Income Tax (19%)-?

Answers

By removing the taxes from the gross pay, we can see that Carlos' net pay is 1,320.30 dollars.

How to get Carlos' net pay?

To get Carlos' net pay, we need to take his gross pay, which is $1,800.00 and subtract all the taxes shown here.

The taxes (in percentage) are:

Income tax = 19%Social security = 6.2%

The total percentage in these taxes is 19% + 6.2% = 25.2%

Then a 25.2% of the gross pay will be gone in taxes, then we need to subtract:

0.252* $1,800.00 = $453.60

We also need to subtract the $26.10 for Medicare, then we will get that Carlos' net pay is given by the expression:

$1,800.00 - $26.10 - $453.60 = $1,320.30

We conclude that, after taxes and that, Carlos' net pay is 1,320.30 dollars.

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation is,

What is the ratio for dogs is 5 to 3. There are 25 dogs how many cats are there

Answers

Answer:

25:15

Hope this helps :)

Step-by-step explanation:

5:3 so since there is 25 dogs we had to multiply 5 to the 5 in 5:3. We will have to multiply 5 to the 3 in 5:3 to get number of cats.

5:3 = 25:15

Answer:

[tex] = 15[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

Taking that the ratio of dogs to cats is 5:3, then:

dogs =5cats = 3

The number of dogs = 25, so:

[tex]5 = 25 \\ 3 = x \\ x= 25 \times 3 \div 5 \\ x = 15[/tex]

D.

Answers

Based on the population of Brazil in 1855 and 1860, the estimated population in 1870 is C. 19.15 million

What is Brazil's estimated population in 1870?

The increase in the population between 1855 and 1860 was:

= 12.51 - 10.112

= 2.398 million

The increase is:

= 2.398/10.112

= 24%

With an increase of 24% every 5 years, the population in 1870 is:

= 10.112 x (1 + 24%)³

= 19.27 million

In conclusion, we can estimate that the population of Brazil in 1870 was 19.15 million.

Nancy spent 1/5 of her money on a dress and 1/4 of the remainder on a handbag, if she spent a total of $100, how much did he have at first?

Answers

Nancy had $ 250 at the start when she did not buy anything given by the equation $ 100 = 2 x / 5

Let the original amount Nancy have first be x.

Therefore, Money spent on dress =  x / 5

Remaining money = x - x / 5

= 4 x / 5

Money spent on handbag = (1 / 4) × 4 x / 5

= x / 5

Total total money spent is given by the equation:

= x / 5 + x / 5 = $ 100

$ 100 = 2 x / 5

2 x = $ 500

⇒ x = $ 500 / 2

⇒ x = $ 250

Hence, Nancy had $ 250 at the start when she did not buy anything given by the equation $ 100 = 2 x / 5

What is function?

A function is relation between a dependent [x] and independent [y] variable . The value of the dependent variable [y] depends upon the value of the independent variable [x].

Given is a relation defined by the following set of coordinates -

(1, 4) , (−1, −2 ) , (3, 10) , (5, 16).

For a given relation, defined by the given set of coordinates to be a function, there should be a unique value of y-coordinate for a unique value of x-coordinate. However, the value of y-coordinate can be same for different values of x-coordinates. From the relation given, we can see that -  for every value of x, there are unique values of y. Hence, the given relation is a function.

Therefore, the relation defined by the given set of coordinates(1, 4) , (−1, −2 ) , (3, 10) , (5, 16) represents a function.

if f is a function from R to R such that f(x)f(y)=f(x+y)+f(z-y) and f(1)=3, then what is the value of f(7)?​

Answers

I suppose you mean

[tex]f(x) f(y) = f(x + y) + f(x - y)[/tex]

Let [tex]x=1[/tex] and [tex]y=0[/tex]. Then

[tex]f(1) f(0) = f(1 + 0) + f(1 - 0) \implies f(1) f(0) = 2 f(1) \implies f(0) = 2[/tex]

Now if we fix [tex]y=1[/tex], the functional equation reduces to the recurrence relation

[tex]f(x) f(1) = f(x + 1) + f(x - 1) \implies f(x+1) - 3f(x) + f(x-1) = 0[/tex]

and we can find [tex]f(7)[/tex] with a few rounds of substitution.

[tex]x=1 \implies f(2) - 3f(1) + f(0) = 0 \implies f(2) = 3f(1) - f(0) = 7[/tex]

[tex]x=2 \implies f(3) - 3f(2) + f(1) = 0 \implies f(3) = 3f(2) - f(1) = 18[/tex]

[tex]x=3 \implies f(4) - 3f(3) + f(2) = 0 \implies f(4) = 3f(3) - f(2) = 47[/tex]

[tex]x=4 \implies f(5) - 3f(4) + f(3) = 0 \implies f(5) = 3f(4) - f(3) = 123[/tex]

[tex]x=5 \implies f(6) - 3f(5) + f(4) = 0 \implies f(6) = 3f(5) - f(4) = 322[/tex]

[tex]x=6 \implies f(7) - 3f(6) + f(5) = 0 \implies f(7) = 3f(6) - f(5) = \boxed{843}[/tex]
