What this question simply asks about is you write the numbers it gave you in only one digit by 10 to the power of n. Where n represents the number of shifts of the decimal point.
And to get this number to be one digit, then you have to approximate.
To approximate; you should always consider that less than 5 counts zero and 5 or more counts+1.
Example:
5.3 is approximately 5
5.5 is approx. 6
5.9 is also approx. 6
and so on.
So the final answers are;
1) 4*10^13
2) 5*10^-11
Please note that 10^positive integer will cause the decimal point to move to the right which means a number greater than 1, usually, while 10^negative integer means number smaller than 1, usually.
Hope this helps.
Answer: Hi!
So first, I'm going to convert "350 below ground level" to -350, as this is what "below ground level" represents.
Now, we should find the total distance traveled. Take the absolute value of -350 (350) and add it to 10, the metres above ground level. This is 360.
We already know the rate of travel; 6m/min. All we have to do now is divide the total distance (360) by the rate of travel (6)!
360 ÷ 6 = 60
So, it took 60 minutes, or one hour, for the elevator to travel down the shaft!
Hope this helps!
Answer:
its D) x = -8 is correct
All the values less than 7 are included in the number line. The graph on number line is shown in figure attached. In the options given, all values in Option A, B and C are greater than 7 so these cannot be included.
