138 x ? = 75
? = 75/138 = 0.544(3sf)
so about 54.35% (2dp) decrease
Okay, so keeping mind that the equation for area is A = L x W, look at the measurements you already have. 5.5 x 10^5 is the length, and 4.2 x 10^4 is the width. Switch them into full form and use a calculator to multiply the two for the area in meters.
550000 x 42000 = 23100000000, which in scientific form is 2.31 × 10^10. So that's answer one.
For the second, in kilometers, just take the full measurement you already have, 23100000000 m, transfer it into kilometers, 23100000 km, and then find its scientific notation, 2.31 × 10^7. That's answer two.
To answer the last question for which is more suitable, just consider what number you'd prefer to look at: a bigger number or a smaller one. Since the kilometer measurement number is smaller, its correct.
Summarily, the answers are 2.31 × 10^10, 2.31 × 10^7, and square kilometers, in that order.
Find the discount price and subtract from the total to find the sale price.
To find the discount price, multiply 90 b 40% (convert 40% into decimal)
90 x 0.4 = 36
Next, subtract the discount from the total to find the sale price.
90 - 36 = 54
So, the sale price is <u>$54</u>.
Both the negative and positive counterparts of a number have the same absolute value, or distance from 0.
The two numbers are 16 and -16.
They both have the same absolute value, 16.
