Using scientific notation, the correct statement is given by:

C. Corporation C owns the most land. Corporation A owns 8 times more land than corporation B.

<h3>What is scientific notation?</h3>

A number in scientific notation is given by:

$a \times 10^b$

With the base being $a \in [1, 10)$ .

Considering the amounts in scientific notation, the standard amounts in acres of each corporation are given as follows:

Corporation A: $3.2 \times 10^5 = 320000 = 320,000$ .

Corporation B: $4 \times 10^4 = 40000 = 40,000$ .

Corporation C: $4.3 \times 10^5 = 430000 = 430,000$ .

Hence corporation C owns the most land. 320,000/40,000 = 8, hence Corporation A owns 8 times more land than corporation B, and statement C is correct.

The set of numbers in the Collatz Conjecture are 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2....

<h3>How to generate the numbers in the Collatz Conjecture</h3>

To start with, we make use of the following starting point:

Starting point = 1

The rule is given as:

If the last number is odd, multiply it by 3 and add 1.
If the last number is even, divide the number by 2.

1 is an odd number.

So, we use the first rule

So, we have:

1 * 3 + 1 = 4

4 is an even number.

So, we use the second rule

So, we have:

4/2 = 2

So, the first three numbers in the Collatz Conjecture are:

1, 4, 2

Using the given rules, we have:

1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2....

The above means that there is only one set of repeating numbers in the Collatz Conjecture.

Hence, the set of numbers in the Collatz Conjecture are 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2, 1, 4, 2....

The original price of a computer game is $45. The price is marked down by $18. What percent of the original price is the markdow

natali 33 [55]

Answer:

60%

Step-by-step explanation:

To know the discount, we must know how much that $ 18 represents of the original price, as follows:

18/45 = 0.4

That is, $ 18 is 40% of $ 45

Therefore, to calculate the discount we must subtract what represents 45%, that is, 100%

100% - 40% = 60%

In other words, the discount is 60%

Answer:

x = 5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equality of bases property says powers of the same base will be equal if and only if the powers are equal. This property is used to solve exponential equations.

<h3>Application</h3>

$\dfrac{(2)^x}{2}=16\qquad\text{copy of the original equation}\\\\2\times\dfrac{(2)^x}{2}=2\times16\qquad\text{multiply by 2 to isolate the base}\\\\2^x=32\qquad\text{simplify}\\\\2^x=2^5\qquad\text{rewrite the constant as a power of 2}\\\\\boxed{x=5}\qquad\text{use the Equality of Bases Property}$

<em>Additional comment</em>

Equating the exponents is fully equivalent to taking the logarithm of both sides of the equation, to that base.

$\log_2(2^x)=\log_2(2^5)\ \Longrightarrow\ x=5$
