An American green tree frog tadpole is about 0.00001 kilometer in length when it hatches. Write this decimal as a power of 10.

1 answer:

3 0

To write it in a decimal of power 10, we move the decimal place to the right. Since the movement of the decimal place is to the right, the power of 10 will be a negative number based on the number of movements.

From 0.00001 to 1, the decimal place is moved 5 times, therefore:

1 x 10^-5 kilometer

In a recent survey, 40 percent indicated chocolate was their favorite flavor of ice cream. Suppose we select a sample of twelve

worty [1.4K]

Answer:

4 people name chocolate

Step-by-step explanation:

Let's first understand the given information.

The survey shows that 40 percent of a finite number of people name chocolate as their favorite flavor of ice cream. Because the survey is reporting a percentage, then 40% means that from 100 people 40 people name chocolate, while the others name a different type of flavor.

Dividing the total of people (100) by the ones who name chocolate (40) then we have:

100/40 = 2.5

Through the above equation we are actually expressing the following:

Total people = 2.5 * (people who name chocolate flavor)

Using this equation if we have now 12 people:

12 = 2.5 * (people who name chocolate flavor)

12/2.5 = (people who name chocolate flavor)

4.8 = people who chose chocolate flavor

Because we can't have 0.8 of a person, then if we have a sample of 12 people, we will expect that 4 of them name chocolate.

21.) A rectangle has an area of 36 square units. As the length and width change, what do you know about their

natima [27]

Answer:

the length and the width are inversely proportional to each other ( $l=\frac{36}{w}$ or $w=\frac{36}{l}$ )

Step-by-step explanation:

Let

l units = length of the rectangle,

w units = width of the rectangle.

The area of the rectangle is

$\text{Area}=\text{Length}\cdot \text{Width}$

A rectangle has an area of 36 square units, so

$l\cdot w=36$

Complete the table with some values of l and w that fit the previous formula:

$\begin{array}{ccc}\text{Length}&\text{Width}&\text{Area}\\ \\36&1&36\cdot 1=36\ un^2.\\18&2&18\cdot 2=36 \ un^2.\\12&3&12\cdot 3=36\ un^2.\\ 9&4&9\cdot 4=36\ un^2.\\l&w&l\cdot w=36 \ un^2.\end{array}$
