Add 2.38 and 4.89 then subtract 3 giving you 4.27
Answer:
A
Step-by-step explanation:
The first answer is correct because we have a decay factor.
The sample is losing mass, so the number that is being multiplied by a power of x must be less than 1.
If the second answer were used, then the sample would be gaining mass.
Answer:
9 square root of 2 or 12.73
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
Cross multiply or just multiply both sides by 24
24x/6=36
4x=36
divide both sides by 4
x=9
