Answer: The correct option is (a). 840.

Step-by-step explanation: We are given to select the number that is equivalent to the following decimal number :

$N=8.4\times 10^2.$

We know that

10 to the power positive number n means there are n zeroes after the digit 1.

Therefore, for the given decimal number, we get

$N=8.4\times 10^2=8.4\times100=84\times10=840.$

Thus, the required same number is 840.

Option (a) is CORRECT.

Two grapefruits and three oranges cost $1.95. Three grapefruits and two oranges cost $2.05.

geniusboy [140]

Answer:

one orange costs $0.35 and one grapefruit costs $0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>let grapefruits be g , let oranges be o</em>

so first equation:

→2g + 3o = $1.95

→g = ($1.95 - 3o)/2

so second equation:

→ 3g + 2o = $2.05

→ g = ($2.05 - 2o)/3

Solving simultaneously:

→ ($2.05 - 2o)/3 = ($1.95 - 3o)/2

→ 2($2.05 - 2o) = 3($1.95 - 3o)

→ 4.1 - 4o = 5.85 - 9o

→ - 4o + 9o = 5.85 - 4.1

→ 5o = 1.75

→ o = $0.35

Therefore one orange costs $0.35

Then one grapefruit costs g → ($1.95 - 3o)/2

→ g = ($1.95 - 3(0.35))/2

→ g = 0.45

Therefore one grapefruit costs $0.45

Can someone explain to me what rate of change is and how you figure it out.

Cloud [144]

ROC is often used when speaking about momentum, and it can generally be expressed as a ratio between a change in one variable relative to a corresponding change in another; graphically, the rate of change is represented by the slope of a line.
