Answer:
2.871*10^9
Step-by-step explanation:
add a decimal point at the end of the number ( 2,871,000,000.) then count how many places it takes to move the decimal point between the first and second number (2.8) then write the rest of the numbers higher than "0" after, giving you the 2.871
to show that the number written is in scientific notation you add 10 to the power of the amount of times you moved the decimal place. In this case, because the decimal point was moved a total of 9 times, it would be 10 to the 9th power (10^9).
North American : South American : European
9 : 5 : 2
Multiply all by 10
90 : 50 : 20
The answer is 50 South American butterflies.
Answer:
Whitney made 6 baskets
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the number of baskets made by Whitney be x.
The 15 baskets made by
Chiyann is equal to 2 times plus 3 what Whitney made
Mathematically what she made would be 2x + 3
To get x, we equate this equation to 15
2x + 3 = 15
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x = 6 baskets

Answer:
20,158 cases
Step-by-step explanation:
Let 
represent year 2010.
We have been given that since 2010, when 102390 Cases were reported, each year the number of new flu cases decrease to 85% of the prior year.
Since the flu cases decrease to 85% of the prior year, so the flu cases for every next year will be 85% of last year and decay rate is 15%.
We can represent this information in an exponential decay function as:
To find number of cases in 2020, we will substitute 
in our decay function as:
Therefore, 20,158 cases will be reported in 2020.
