How many times larger is 9 x 10^9 than 3 x 10^-4?
andrezito [222]
The larger value is 9 x 10^9
The smaller value is 3 x 10^(-4)

Divide the larger over the smaller
Doing so will have you divide the coefficients 9 and 3 (numbers in front of the "times ten to the..." portions) to get 9/3 = 3. 
Then you'll also subtract the exponents: 9 minus (-4) = 9 - (-4) = 9 + 4 = 13

In summary so far, we got a coefficient of 3 and an exponent of 13

So the final answer is 3 x 10^13 (assuming you want scientific notation)

If you want to convert to standard notation, instead of scientific notation, move the decimal point in 3.0 thirteen spots to the right to get 

30,000,000,000,000

there are 13 zeros (four groups of 3 plus one just after the 3) in that value above. This is the number 30 trillion

Given the function f(x) = 0.65x + 117, what<br> s the x-value of the zero?
swat32

Answer:

x = -180

Step-by-step explanation:

0 = 0.65x + 117

-117 = 65x/100

cross-multiply to solve for 'x':

65x = -11700

x = -11700/65

x = -180

bonufazy [111]

Answer:

<h2>There is a 25% chances of receiving a yellow golf ball next time.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • There are 8 golf balls in total.
  • There are 2 yellow golf balls out of 8.

The experimental probability refers to the ratio between the number of times an even happens and the total number of cases. So,

P=\frac{2}{8}=0.25

Therefore, there is a 25% chances of receiving a yellow golf ball next time.

Jess has 60 ounces of an alloy that is 40% gold. How many ounces of pure gold must be added to this alloy to create a new alloy
tia_tia [17]

Answer:

84 ounces of pure gold

Step-by-step explanation:

Jess has 60 ounces of an alloy that is 40% gold. How many ounces of pure gold must be added to this alloy to create a new alloy that is 75% gold?

Pure gold = 100% gold

Let the number of ounces of pure gold = x

Hence, we have the equation

40% × 60 ounces + 100%× x ounces = 75%(60 + x)ounces

= 0.4 × 60 + 1x = 0.75(60 + x)

= 24 + x = 45 + 0.75x

Collect like terms

x - 0.75x = 45 - 24

0.25x = 21

x = 21/0.25

x = 84 ounces

Therefore, we need 84 ounces of pure gold
