ENGLISH MIDDLE SCHOOL

"Very good." Father took the card and put it carefully away in his pocket. "Did you see that demon's face, Moon Shadow? He was surprised when I fixed his carriage. Machines aren't all bad. Some of them may be the true magic. We might not be able to speak too well with the demons, but in machines there's a language common to us all. You don't have to worry about your accent when you're talking about numbers and diagrams."I was getting excited. "Maybe the Dragon King was right. Maybe the magic takes a different form in our land. Maybe that's why you don't need words for it."

Father wiped his hands on an old rag in the back of the wagon. Then he held up his hands. He had not been able to get off all the oil, for the lines of his hands were still black.

"Well, you know, repairing the horseless carriage was a lot like healing the Dragon King. My hands just seemed to know what to do."

In this passage, what revelation do the narrator and his father have about the setting?

that the Americans may not be demons after all
that magic is more important than modern machinery
that a common language is not always necessary for communication

Bobby and Cheryl each rounded 745,829 to the nearest ten thousand .Bobby wrote 750,000 and Cheryl wrote 740,000 Who is correct?explain the error that was made

Answers

In the given case, Bobby is right since Cheryl didn't allow the ten thousand digit increase, she kept it the same. Thus correct option is B.

What is the Error?

An error is referred to as any kind of mistake that took place in the calculation or answer which changes its outcome or result and cretes a gap in the final conclusion.

The case of the question is related to rounding off the amount of 745, 829 nearest ten thousand in which one person named as Bobby did as 750,000 and another person named Cheryl did as 740, 000.

Bobby is right since Cheryl kept the ten thousand digit constant rather than letting it increase. The digit in the location of the thousands is 5, hence she should have increased the 4 by 1. If you look directly next to the ten thousand number, the digit is 4.

Therefore, option B is appropriate.
