Answer: Option 'c' is correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of children be 'c'.

According to question,

"There are 9 more children than parents in a room.

Let the number of parents would be 'p'.

According to question, it becomes,

c-p=9\\\\c-9=p

As there are total 25 people in the room = 25

So, it becomes,

c+p=25\\\\c+c-9=25\\\\2c-9=25\\\\2c=34\\\\c=17

Hence, there are 17 children and 17-9 = 8 parents.

Therefore, option 'c' is correct.

Sliva [168]

Answer:

26.8 inches of fabrics was used on headband and wristband for each player

Step-by-step explanation:

Headbands for 31 players and 3 couches = 611.66 inches of fabric

Total number of people = 31 players + 3 couches

= 31 + 3

= 34 people

Fabrics per person's headbands = Total inches of fabrics for headbands / total number of people

= 611.66 inches of fabric / 34 people

= 17.99 inches of fabrics per person

Wristband for 31 players = 273.11 inches of fabric

Fabric per person's wristband = total inches of fabrics for wristband / number of players

= 273.11 inches of fabric / 31

= 8.81 inches per person

How much fabric was used on a headband and wristband for each player?

= Fabrics per person's headbands + Fabric per person's wristband

= 17.99 inches + 8.81 inches

= 26.8 inches of fabrics was used on headband and wristband for each player

The distance from the Earth to Saturn averages 886 million (886,000,000) miles. Write this number in scientific notation.
kiruha [24]

Answer:

8.86 x 10^8

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation means that you represent the standard form of a number like this:

number less than ten x 10 to the ___ power

In standard form, the decimal point is at the end of 886,000,000.

You have to move the decimal point to the left until it creates a number less than 10, but greater than 1:

8.86,000,000

You count how many decimal places you moved it. In this case, it is 8.

So your answer becomes 8.86 x 10^8
