Answer:
i. ) The fraction[tex]\frac{1.7}{1.3}[/tex] as a number with one decimal place is 1.3.
ii. ) The height of the tree is 37.9 m
Step-by-step explanation:
One decimal Place:
Some examples,
4.23 ————————- 4.2
97.456 ———————- 97.5
7324.89456 ————— 7324.9
0.95 ————————- 1.0
76 —————————- 76.0
- After the decimal point get rid of all digits but the first 2
-
If the second digit is more than 4, increase the first digit by 1
- Always write the decimal point and one digit even if it is zero
Therefore, the fraction[tex]\frac{1.7}{1.3}[/tex] as a number with one decimal place is 1.3.
ii. )
Given
[tex]\frac{x}{29} =\frac{1.7}{1.3} \\x= 29\times \frac{1.7}{1.3}\\x =\frac{49.3}{1.3}\\x = 37.923....\\x=37.9\ m\ \textrm{rounded to one decimal place}[/tex]
Therefore, the height of the tree is 37.9 m
