If 26.97 ÷ 6.3 is written in long division form as so that the divisor is written as a whole number, where should the decimal point be placed in the dividend?

The decimal point should be placed between digits 9 and 7 in the dividend. i.e the dividend becomes 269.7

Dividend = 26.97       [numerator]

Divisor = 6.3               [denominator]

If 26.97 ÷ 6.3 is written in long division form so that the divisor is written as a whole number, we have the following;

(i)First convert the divisor to a whole number by multiplying by 10 i.e

6.3 x 10 = 63

(ii) Since the divisor (denominator) has been multiplied by 10, to make sure the division expression stays the same, we need to multiply the dividend(numerator) too by 10. i.e

26.97 x 10 = 269.7

(iii) The division expression then becomes;

269.7 ÷ 63

Therefore, the decimal point should be placed between digits 9 and 7 in the dividend.

  b.   the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

step-by-step explanation:

since the length of the interval is the same in each case, we only need to compare the change in y-value to see which is greater.

so the change in y-value for function f is (6 )) = 9.

the table tells us

so the change in y-value for function g is (31 -1) = 30.

the change in y-value of f(x) on the interval is less than the change in y-value of g(x) on the same interval, so the average rate of change of f(x) is less than the average rate of change of g(x).

6, 10

9, -13

12, -21

18, -23

step-by-step explanation:

you just add 6 to the x-coordinate and subtract 10 from the y-coordinate.
