Shen’s mother gave him $10 to go buy groceries. he picked up a gallon of milk for $3.49, three pounds of oranges that cost $1.14 per pound, and a box of cereal for $3.46. shen used front-end estimation to determine whether he had enough money for the groceries. how much did he estimate the total cost would be?

$9.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Shen’s mother gave him $10 to go buy groceries. He picked up a gallon of milk for $3.49, three pounds of oranges that cost $1.14 per pound, and a box of cereal for $3.46.

In front-end estimation, we round whatever number is in front instead of rounding each number to a given place value.

We can see that in $3.49, front number is and second number is less than 5, so we will round it down to $3.

Similarly, in $3.46, 1st number is 3 and second number is less than 5, so we will round it down to $3.

In $1.14, front or 1st number is 1 and second number is less than 5, so we will round down to $1. Cost of three orange boxes would be .

Therefore, the total estimated cost of groceries is $9.

c. 27 units.

step-by-step explanation:

we are told that in circle a, ∠bae ≅ ∠dae.

we can see from our given diagram that in and ;

, as these are radii of our given circle.

therefore, by sas congruence postulate.

hence, side be will be equal to side de as corresponding parts of congruent triangles are congruent. so we can set an equation to find the value of x as:

now let us substitute x=17 in the expression for the length of be.

therefore, length of be will be 27 units and option c is the correct choice.

no because after the troops were pulled many blacks were killed by hangings lynchings and other cruel ways which in a way interrupted the reconstruction of the south and differed from the way abraham lincoln had an idea of reconstruction
