Ratio of the sizes of the smaller triangle to the sizes of the bigger triangle is 15 : 35 = 3 : 7 = 1 : 7/3

Area of triangle = 1/2bh
Ratio of the area of the smaller triangle to the area of the bigger trfiangle is 1/2bh : 1/2(7/3b)(7/3h)
1/2bh : 49/9(1/2bh)
270ft^2 : 49/9(270ft^2)

The best approximation of the area of the larger triangle is 1,470 ft^2

How do you Estimate the Product of Decimals and Whole
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1) 8.5

2) 60

3) 69.3

4) 6.8

5) 3.6

6) 10.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Take out the decimal of the estimated factors and multiply. Count how far to left the decimal is in the factors. In the product, put the decimal as many to the left as it was in the factors. (ex. 6.93 x 42, 6.93 rounds to 6.9, 42 rounds to 40, 69 x 40 = 2,760, move the decimal over one for correct place value,            6.9 x 40 = 276.0 <em>or </em>276)

The national debt of a country is
olganol [36]

Answer:  3 \times 10^{13}

Explanation:

Highlight the first digit on the very left (2). The 7 right next to it means we'll round that 2 up to a 3. Every other digit becomes a zero.

The number 27,895,168,401,112 rounds to 30,000,000,000,000 which is the number 30 trillion.

It converts to the scientific notation 3 \times 10^{13} because we basically start with 3.0 and move the decimal point 13 spots to the right to arrive at 30 trillion as shown above.

Exponent Practice:<br> x^2/3=64
docker41 [41]
X^2/3 = 64
x^{2} =64^{3}
x = 64^{3/2}

it is easier to first find square root of 64 and than power it to 3
square root of 64 is 8 which means our equation now looks like:
x = 8^3
now the answer is after powering 8 to 3:
x = 512
