What you can do in this case is the following rule of three to find the result:
 1 light year ---> 5.88 * 10 ^ 12 miles
 3.2 * 10 ^ 2 light year ---> x
 Clearing x we have:
 x = ((3.2 * 10 ^ 2) / (1)) * (5.88 * 10 ^ 12)
 x = 1.88 * 10 ^ 15 miles
 answer:
 In scientific notation, approximately it is 1.88 * 10 ^ 15 miles

Drag each expression to show whether it is equivalent to −2.6−(−5.9) -2.6 x - -5.9 x , −2.6+(−5.9) -2.6 x + -5.9 x , or neither.
vredina [299]

Answer:

-2.6x-(-5.9x) is equivalent to -2.6x+5.9x and 5.9x+(-2.6x)

-2.6x+(-5.9x) is equivalent to -2.6x-5.9x and -5.9x+(-2.6x).

The expressions which are equivalent to neither:

-5.9x+2.6x and 5.9x-(-2.6x)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the expressions:

1) -2.6x-(-5.9x)

2) -2.6x+(-5.9x)

To find:

The expressions equivalent to the given expressions.

or the expressions which are not equivalent to any of the given expressions.

Solution:

First of all, let us solve the brackets from the given expressions.

-2.6x-(-5.9x) can be written as -2.6x+5.9x (because when we multiply a negative sign with negative, it becomes positive.)

Similarly -2.6x+(-5.9x) can be written as -2.6x-5.9x (because when we multiply a positive sign with negative, it becomes negative.)

Therefore, the answer is:

-2.6x-(-5.9x) is equivalent to -2.6x+5.9x and 5.9x+(-2.6x)

-2.6x+(-5.9x) is equivalent to -2.6x-5.9x and -5.9x+(-2.6x).

The expressions which are equivalent to neither:

-5.9x+2.6x and 5.9x-(-2.6x)
