The running trail in the local park is 2.826 miles long. If the park board were planning to extend the trail by 1.46 miles, what would the new length of the running trail be?

4.286

Step-by-step explanation:

you really need help with this ? you cannot just use your calculator ? that would have been faster than putting that question in here ...

remember, similar to the number positions in front of the decimal point, it is equally important to add the same positions after the decimal point.

we have 10th, 100th, 1000th, 10000th, 100000th, ... no end possible.

so we have

2.826 miles

and need to add 1.46 miles

2.826

1.46

4.286

and the line of thinking goes from right to left

nothing plus 6 is 6

6 plus 2 is 8

4 plus 8 is 12, so we write 2 and carry over the 1

1 plus 2 plus 1 carry over is 4

if it helps, you can always add zeroes at the end of any digits after the decimal point, as you can also add zeroes in front to the digits before the decimal point to make both numbers have the same length and their decimal points are perfectly aligned.

our addition could have also looked like

2.826

1.460

with the same result

overall, if this is truly helping you, an example of using both leading and tailing zeroes could be

4278.9472081

0021.6380000

4300.5852081

answer: city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

step-by-step explanation:

since we have given that

total annual rainfall a city record = 40 inches

this year, total rainfall recorded = 37.6 inches

number of inches of rainfall   is needed to match the record of 40 inches is given by

hence, city needs 2.4 inches of rainfall more to match the record of 40 inches.

the correct answer is b. negative exponential growth.

step-by-step explanation:

you can tell it's an exponential function because it decreases rapidly then levels out and never touches the x-axis.

it is negative because the y-axis decreases as the x-axis increases.

therefore it is a negative exponential growth graph.
