A farmer is planting crops in one half of a rectangular field. The full width is 2.7x10^3 ft and the full height is 3.5x10^3 ft.

What is the area of the part of the field that the crops are grown on? Write the answer in scientific notation with the correct number of significant digits and label with the correct units.
Explain how you chose the number of significant digits in the final answer

The area of the crops, in scientific notation, is:  4.725x10^6  ft^2

<h3>How to find the area in scientific notation?</h3>

We know that for a rectangle of width W and height H, the area is:

A = W*H

In this case, we know that:

W = 2.7x10^3 ft

H =  3.5x10^3 ft

Replacing that in the area equation, we get:

A = (2.7x10^3 ft)*(3.5x10^3 ft)

We can simplify that as:

A = (2.7*3.5)x(10^3*10^3) ft^2

A = 9.45x10^(3 + 3) ft^2

A = 9.45x10^6  ft^2

And the crops are in half of that area:

a = (9.45x10^6  ft^2)/2 = 4.725x10^6  ft^2

Why I use three significant digits? because the precision of the measurements is of the order of 10^3, which is way smaller than the order of the area, 10^6.

Question 5 (1 point)

Answer:

a)   x² + 6x + 9

Step-by-step explanation:

When we square something, we multiply it by itself:

⇒ (x + 3)² = (x + 3)(x + 3)

Using the FOIL method:  (a + b)(c + d) = ac + ad + bc + bd

⇒ (x + 3)(x + 3) = x² + 3x + 3x + 9

                        = x² + 6x + 9

How do you solve -2(x + 3y) = 18
sergiy2304 [10]

solving equation in terms of x we get x=-9-3y

solving equation in terms of y we get y=-3-1/3x

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to solve the equation: -2(x + 3y) = 18

Solving the equation:

-2(x + 3y) = 18\\-2x-6y=18

Simplifying and finding value of x:

-2x-6y=18\\-2x=18+6y\\-2x/-2=18/-2+6y/-2\\x=-9-3y

We can simplify and find value of y as well:

-2x-6y=18\\-6y=18+2x\\-6y/-6=18/-6+2x/-6\\y=-3-1/3x

So, solving equation in terms of x we get x=-9-3y

solving equation in terms of y we get y=-3-1/3x
