How many times larger is 9 x 10^9 than 3 x 10^-4?

The larger value is 9 x 10^9
The smaller value is 3 x 10^(-4)

Divide the larger over the smaller
Doing so will have you divide the coefficients 9 and 3 (numbers in front of the "times ten to the..." portions) to get 9/3 = 3. 
Then you'll also subtract the exponents: 9 minus (-4) = 9 - (-4) = 9 + 4 = 13

In summary so far, we got a coefficient of 3 and an exponent of 13

So the final answer is 3 x 10^13 (assuming you want scientific notation)

If you want to convert to standard notation, instead of scientific notation, move the decimal point in 3.0 thirteen spots to the right to get 

30,000,000,000,000

there are 13 zeros (four groups of 3 plus one just after the 3) in that value above. This is the number 30 trillion

Find an equation of the plane that passes through the points p, q, and r. ​ p(7, 2, 1), q(6, 3, 0), r(0, 0, 0)
Alona [7]

Answer:

x - 2y - 3z = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The cross product of vectors rp and rq will give a vector that is normal to the plane:

... rp × rq = (-3, 6, 9)

Dividing this by -3 (to reduce it and make the x-coefficient positive) gives a normal vector to the plane of (1, -2, -3). Usint point r as a point on the plane, we find the constant in the formula to be zero. Hence, your equation can be written ...

... x -2y -3z = 0

Write an equation in slope-intercept form for the line that passes through (5,0) and is perpendicular to the line described by y
natta225 [31]

For this case we have to;

We have that an equation in slope-intercept form is given by:

y = mx + b

Where:

m is the slope

b is the cut point with the y axis

Also, by definition, two lines are perpendicular when the product of their slopes is -1. That is:m_ {1} * m_ {2} = - 1

We have the line as data: y_ {1} = \frac {-5} {2} x + 6

Then m_ {1} = \frac {-5} {2}

We foundm_ {2}:

m_ {1} * m_ {2} = - 1

\frac {-5} {2} * m_ {2} = - 1

m_ {2} = \frac {-1} {(\frac {-5} {2})}

m_ {2} = \frac {(2) (- 1)} {(- 5) (1)}

m_ {2} = \frac {2} {5}

Thus, y_ {2} = \frac {2} {5} x_ {2} + b_ {2}

We must find b_ {2}:

We know that y_ {2} passes through the point(x_ {2}, y_ {2}) = (5,0)

We substitute the point in the equation of y_ {2}:

0 = \frac {2} {5} (5) + b_ {2}\\0 = 2 + b_ {2}\\b_ {2} = - 2

Thus, y_ {2} = \frac {2} {5} x_ {2} -2

Then the equation in slope-intercept for the line that passes through (5,0) and is perpendicular to the line described by y_ {1} = \frac {-5} {2} x_{1} + 6 is: y_ {2} = \frac {2} {5} x_ {2} -2

Answer:

y_ {2} = \frac {2} {5} x_ {2} -2

Determine whether or not the given set is open, connected, and simply-connected. (Select all that apply.) (x, y) | 16 ≤ x2 + y2
Yuliya22 [10]

Answer:

The set is closed, connected and simyple connected

Step-by-step explanation:

A set is closed if contains all the point in its boundaries. A set is open if it doesn't contain any of the points in its boundaries. In this set, all the points of the boundaries are included because it is using the less than or equal to and greater than or equal to define the set.

The set is connected if you can find a path inside the set to connect any two points of the set. If you make the graph of the set you would see the set covers this condition because the set hasn't any division.

The set is simply connected if you can draw a closed curve inside the set and in the interior of the curve there are only points of the set. In other words, if the set has holes is not simply connected. This set doesn't have holes, it's simply connected.

Two planes leave an airport at noon. If the eastbound plane flies at 560 mph and the westbound plane flies at 500 mph, at what t
o-na [289]


Your problem is an example of a distance problem, so you muct know the formula to find the distance. To find the distance we simply multiply the rate by the time, or as you'll see more often, d = r t. That means to calculate distance traveled you need rate and time.

Take note, planes are traveling in opposite direction, which means 2000 miles will be the sum of the distances that the two planes have traveled.

D (Plane 1) + D(Plane 2). = 2000

Let t = time in minutes

560t + 500t = 2000

Solve for t. Take it ftom here.
