With scientific notation remember this rule; if the exponent is positive, move the decimal point that many places to the right. If it is negative move it that many places to the left. What that will do is make the number larger or smaller to the correct value.
So for example, if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^4 you would move the decimal four places to the right. So you would end up with 10200.
As another example if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^-2 you would move the decimal two places to the left. That would give you .0120.
So now we are onto your problem. 2.606 x 10^7.
You would move the decimal seven places to the right, because the exponent is positive, that will make your number larger(which would make more sense if you were adding populations, right?).
That would give you 26,060,000 people living in Texas.
From there simply add the two populations together and you will have your answer!
Answer:
x
21
Step-by-step explanation:
(-2/3)x+13≥ -1
(-2/3)x≥ -14 (I subtracted by 13 on both sides)
x
-14*(-3/2) (I divided by -2/3 on both sides)
x
21
in plain and short, to graph an inequality, we first graph its EQUALITY graph, and then we do the shading.
so to graph y > x + 3, we first graph y = x + 3, which is just a line, and then do a true/false check on a point to see which side we shade.
let's hmmm check the point say (0,2), x = 0, y = 2.
y > x + 3
2 > 0 + 3
2 > 3 <--- is that true? is 2 really larger than 3? nope, so is false.
that simply means that the point (0, 2) is on the false area, so that's the area we do NOT shade, so <u>we shade the other side</u>.
y > x + 3, means "y" is greater than or larger than that line, but not equals, larger not equal, meaning the values on the borderline are not included, so the line is a dashed line.
check the picture below.
The probability of drawing a black marble is 7/31 or .226 or 22.581%. To find the probability of these type of questions, add all together to get 31, then since there are 7 black marbles the probability would be 7/31.
