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.

The fairy tale spectacular is coming to town. Admission to the fair costs $42.50 and each ride costs $.65. You have $60 to spend

Part A: 42.50+0.65x<60

Part B: You can enjoy maximum 26 rides at the fairy tale spectacular.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Admission cost to fair = $42.50

Cost of each ride = $0.65

Amount you can spend = $60

Let,

x be the number of rides you can take.

Admission fair + Cost of each ride*number of rides < Amount you can spend

Part A: write an inequality that represents this situation.

42.50+0.65x<60

Part B: solve the inequality to determine the maximum number of rides you can enjoy at the fairy tale spectacular.

$42.50+0.65x$

Dividing both sides by 0.65

$\frac{0.65x}{0.65}$

Rounding off to nearest whole number;

x<27

Less than 27 means, you cannot take 27 rides, therefore,

You can enjoy maximum 26 rides at the fairy tale spectacular.

Given right triangle QRS, what is the value of sin(30°)?

m_a_m_a [10]

The value of sin(30°) is 1/2.

<h3>What is Trigonometry?</h3>

The branch of mathematics concerned with specific functions of angles and their application to calculations.

The diagram is attached below:

We know,

sin 30= Perpendicular/ Hypotenuse.

As, the hypotenuse is the opposite side of the right angle and the perpendicular is opposite to the given angle.

So,

sin 30 = 5/10

sin 30 = 1/2
