3*10^8 \frac{m}{s}  \\\\ 1m\to 10^{-3}km \\\\ 1s\to 36*10^{-4} h \\\\\\ 3*10^8* \frac{10^{-3}km}{36*10^{-4}s}= 10^8 * \frac{10^{-3}*10^4km}{12s}= \\\\ =10^8* \frac{10m}{12s}= \\\\ =10^8* 83*10^{-2} \frac{m}{s}=\\\\= \boxed{83*10^6 \frac{m}{s}}

Which of the following examples best represents the use of an interval scale? measuring the number of cookie boxes sold by scout
Mashcka [7]

Answer:

students' ratings of their professors' performance on a five-point scale ranging from poor to excellent

Step-by-step explanation:

There are four type of scales in mathematics. They include:

1. Nominal scale : they do not measure quantity. they are used to classify a population into two or more scales that are exhaustive and mutually exclusive. e.g. classifying a population based on gender, naming the different car brands seen in a school's parking lot

2. Ordinal scale : this scale measures ranks a population from best to worst or from least to most. e.g. ranking the participants of a race based on their performance

3. Interval scale : this scale has the property of order and equal intervals. Zero is not meaningful.

Interval scale is used when the difference between the numbers are meaningful. e.g. students' ratings of their professors' performance on a five-point scale ranging from poor to excellent Here a child who is scored 1, did very poorly and a child scored 5, performed excellently well.

4. Ratio scale :  this scale has the property of order, a meaningful zero and equal intervals.

A population of bacteria is initially 2,000. After three hours the population is 1,000.
lina2011 [118]

The population starts at 2000, so a=2000.

We also know that the population in 3 hours is 1000, so we can setup the equation:

     2000 b^3 = 1000

This gets us:

    b^3 = 1/2

And taking the cube root of both sides gives us:

    b ≈ 0.7937005259841

Rounding that to 4 places, we have:

    f(t) = 2000 (0.7937)^t

I need help with pythagoras’ theorem
fomenos

Answer:

Pythagoras’ theorem  is a way to find a side or hypothesis when you have 2 sides.  

The formula is:  a^2 + b^2 = c^2

a and b are sides

c is the hypothesis

<u>Ex:  A triangle has a leg that is 5 inches and a leg that is 7 inches.  Find the hypothesis using Pythagoras' theorem.  </u>

A leg is another way of saying a side.

5^2 + 7^2 = c^2

25 + 49 = x^2

sqrt(74) = sqrt(x^2)

sqrt(74) inches = hypothesis

<u>Ex:  A triangle has a leg that is 9 feet and a hypothesis that is 25 feet.  Find the other leg using Pythagoras' theorem. </u>

9^2 + b^2 = 25^2

81 + b^2 - 81 = 625 - 81

sqrt(b^2) = sqrt(544)

b = sqrt(554)
