Answer: 6 \times 10^{-5} is 1.2 \times 10^4. times greater than 5 \times 10^{-9}.


Step-by-step explanation:

We are given two numbers.

First number  : 6 \times 10^{-5}.

Second number : 5 \times 10^{-9}.

In order to find how many times   6 \times 10^{-5} is greater than 5 \times 10^{-9}, we need to divide first number by second number.

Therefore,

6 \times 10^{-5} ÷ 5 \times 10^{-9}

or \frac{6 \times 10^{-5}}{5 \times 10^{-9}}

First we would divide 6 by 5.

On dividing 6 by 5, we get 1.2.

Now, we would divide 10^-5 by 10^-9.

In order to divide them, we can apply quotient rule of exponents \frac{a^m}{a^n} =a^{m-n}.

We get

\frac{10^{-5}}{10^{-9}}  = 10^{-5-(-9)} = 10^{-5+9} = 10^4.

Therefore,

\frac{6 \times 10^{-5}}{5 \times 10^{-9}} = 1.2 \times 10^4.

So, we could say finally 6 \times 10^{-5} is 1.2 \times 10^4. times greater than 5 \times 10^{-9}.

What is the area, in square feet, of the trapezoid below?
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:  " 94. 6  ft² ".
_____________________

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

The formula for the area of a trapezoid:
______________________
A = (1/2) * (b1 + b2) * (perpendicular height, "h" ) ;

      in which:
______________________
 "A = area (in units of ft²) "

 "b1 = length of (base one) = 7.7 ft (from diagram) ;  

 "b2 = length of (base two—the other base) = 14.3 ft. ;
 "h = height (perpendicular) = 8.6 ft.
_______________________

To solve for the Area, "A" ; we plug in the known values:
_______________________
A = (1/2) * (b1 + b2) * (perpendicular height, "h" );

   =  (1/2) * (7.7 ft + 14.3 ft) * (8.6 ft) ;

  = (1/2) * (22 ft.) * (8.6 ft) ;

  = (11 ft.) * (8.6 ft.) ;

   = (11) * (8.6) * (ft.) * (ft.) ;

   = (11) * (8.6) * ft² ;

A  =   " 94. 6  ft² ".
