5 aplicaciones de notación científica en la vida cotidiana

Mathematics

Answer:

In scientific notation:

The first number in the mathematical equation is called the "coefficient." The coefficient must be greater than or equal to one and less than 10. For example to create the scientific notation for the number 256, the coefficient would be 2.56.

The second number in the equation is a power of 10, written as 10 with an exponent, like 102 which stands for 10 x 10.

Combining these two numbers would create this scientific notation equation for 256 - 2.56 x 102.

A negative exponent shows the decimal is moved that many places to the left and a positive exponent shows the decimal is moved that many places to the right.

Scientific Notation Examples

Here are examples of scientific notation:

1 = 100

10 = 1 x 10¹

100 = 1 x 10²

1000 = 1 x 10³

10000 = 1 x 104

100000 = 1 x 105

42,000,000 = 4.2 x 107

676,000,000,000 = 6.76 x 1011

0.1 = 1 x 10-1

0.01 = 1 x 10-2

0.001 = 1 x 10-3

0.0001 = 1 x 10-4

0.00001 = 1 x 10-5

0.00000078 = 7.8 x 10-7

0.000000000000000 = 3.56 x 10-13

kozerog [31]

Answer:

The largest possible number of adjacent empty chairs in a single row is 3

Step-by-step explanation:

The parameters given are;

The number of chairs = 8 × 10 = 80 chairs

The number of parents = 54

Sitting arrangements of parents = Alone or to one other person

Therefore;

The maximum number of parents on a row = 1 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 0 + 1 = 7

Hence when the rows have the maximum number of parents occupying the seats we have for the 8 rows;

7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 = 56

But there are only 54 parents, therefore, up to the 7th row will have 7 parents while the 8th row will have only 5 parents to make the possible sitting arrangement to be as follows;

7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 7 + 5 = 54

The sitting arrangement for the 8th row is therefore

1 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 1 + 0 + 1 + 0 + 0 + 0

Hence there will be three empty seats in the 8th row making the largest possible number of adjacent empty chairs in a single row = 3.

Reggie can line a football field in 120 minutes. Rosalinda can line a football field in 80 minutes. If they work together, how m
wel

Answer:

48 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that;

Rosalinda can line the football field in 80 minutes

Reggie can line the football field in 120 minutes

Lets assume that if they work together, they will take T minutes to line the football field

Hence;

Thus in 1 minute, Rosalina can line 1/80 of the field where as Reggie can line 1/120 of the field

\frac{1}{T} =\frac{1}{120} +\frac{1}{80} \\\\\frac{1}{T} =\frac{2+3}{240}\\\\

The sum of the two fractions will represent the size of the field that can be lined in 1 minute.

\frac{1}{T} =\frac{5}{240} \\\\\frac{1}{T} =\frac{1}{48} \\T= 48

The reciprocal of the sum of the two fractions will represent the time taken for both Rosalinda and Reggie to line the field.

Answer ; It will take them 48 minutes for them to line the football field

Which steps will generate an expression equivalent to 17(+5)
Bingel [31]

For this case we must indicate an expression equivalent to:

17 (x + 5)

By definition we have that the distributive property establishes that:

a (b + c) = ab + ac

Then, applying the property to the given expression we have:

17 (x + 5) = 17 * x + 17 * 5 = 17x + 85

Thus, an equivalent expression is:

17x + 85

ANswer:

17x + 85
