Mathematics

Gemiola [76]3 years ago

Scientific notation is shorthand for writing really big or really small numbers. Without it we could not do certain calculations because there would be just too many digits and it would be tedious.

For example:
writing out the numbers in standard form..
1,440,000,000 ÷ 0.0000012 = ???
= 1,200,000,000,000,000

Scientific notation...
144×10^7 ÷ 12×10^-7 = 12×10^14

Answer:

See below

Step-by-step explanation:

\frac{1}{1-cos A} - \frac{1}{1+cos A} =2 cosec A cot A \\  \\ L. H. S.= \frac{1}{1-cos A} - \frac{1}{1+cos A} \\  \\ = \frac{1+cos A - (1 - cos A)}{(1-cos A)(1+cos A)}\\  \\ = \frac{1+cos A - 1  +  cos A}{1-cos^{2}  A}\\  \\ = \frac{2cos A }{sin^{2}  A}\\  \\ =2 .\frac{1}{sin A}.\frac{cos A }{sin  A}.\\  \\  = 2.cosec \: A.cot \: A \\  \\  = R.H.S

Does 3 (x-1) = 2x + 9 have one solution, no solution, or infinite solutions?

Step-by-step explanation:

3 (x-1) = 2x + 9

3x - 3 = 2x + 9

Solve the inequality for x<br><br> 20x &gt; 8(4x - 5) - 20
UNO [17]
Hi there! I can help you with this! First, let's combine like terms and do everything for the right side of the problem. When you do the distributive property, you get 32x - 40. Combine like terms and you'll get 32x - 60. Now, the inequality is 20x = 32x - 60. First, let's subtract 32x from both sides to get the integer by itself. When you do that, you get -12x = -60. Now, divide each side by -12 to isolate the "x". -60/-12 is 5. Let's plug it in. 20 * 5 is 100. 32 * 5 is 160. 160 - 60 is 100. 100 = 100. There. x = 5.
