Answer:

If the population of the United States on July 4,2010 was almost 310000000 then, the number in scientific notation is $3.1 \times 10^{8}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

- Given

Population of the United States on July 4,2010 was almost 310000000 .

- To write the number in scientific notation.

- Firstly, move the decimal point so that the first factor is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10 .

- Then, count the number of decimal places, n, that the decimal point was moved.

- Then, write the number as a product with a power of 10.

- Finally, check the scientific notation.

Step 1 of 2

Moving the decimal point-

Move the decimal after 3 . so that 3.10000000 is between 1 and 10 .

Now, we know the decimal point was moved 8 places to the left.

Step 2 of 2

Writing the number as a product with a power of 10 -

Since, 310000000 is greater than 1 so the power of 10 will have the exponent 8 .

Therefore, the number becomes-

$$31000000=3.1 \times 10^{8}$$

Now, checking the scientific notation-

$$\begin{gathered}3.1 \times 10^{8}=3.1 \times 100000000 \\=310000000\end{gathered}$$

Every day, it increases by 8 inches. We know that it started at 16 inches.

We can construct an equation with this information.

Equation: 16+8x=h
h=Height
x=Days

Plug in 12 for x:
16+96=h
h=112 inches

Answer: The plant will be 112 inches tall in 12 days.

solong [7]

Answer:

\large\boxed{b\geq3\to b\in[3,\ \infty)}

Step-by-step explanation:

2(b-3)\geq3(3-b)\qquad\text{use the distributive property:}\ a(b+c)=ab+ac\\\\(2)(b)+(2)(-3)\geq(3)(3)+(3)(-b)\\\\2b-6\geq9-3b\qquad\text{add 6 to both sides}\\\\2b-6+6\geq9+6-3b\\\\2b\geq15-3b\qquad\text{add}\ 3b\ \text{to both sides}\\\\2b+3b\geq15-3b+3b\\\\5b\geq15\qquad\text{divide both sides by 5}\\\\\dfrac{5b}{5}\geq\dfrac{15}{5}\\\\b\geq3
