<span>From the pythagorean theorem, we know that x^2 and y^2 = 15^2, where x and y, where x is the base moving from the wall and y is the distance of the ladder sliding down. This means that y = sqrt(225 - x^2). Plugging in x = 13 gives us y = 2sqrt(14). Differentiating both sides of the original equations gives us dy/dt = 13 x 4 / 2sqrt(14) = 52/2sqrt(14) = 26/sqrt(14) ft/s.</span>

Answer:

3 * 10^3 in scientific notation.

3,000 in standard notation.

Step-by-step explanation:

We divide:

3.9 *10^5 / 1.3 * 10^2

= ( 3.9/1.3) * (10^5 / 10^2)

= 3 * 10(5-2)

= 3 * 10^3.

This  equals 3 * 1,000 = 3000.
