Meters are 100 times as large as centimeters. So, if we have 800 centimeters, that is the equivalent of 8 meters.

In this scenario, we want to know how many meters is equivalent to 7 centimeters. Since 1 centimeter is 1/100 of 1 meter, we can multiply the amount of centimeters by 1/100 to get the measurement in meters. 7(1/100) will yield 7/100 or .07 meters.

To write this in scientific notation, we take 7 and multiply it by 1/100 or 10^(-2). This is written "7x10^(-2) m".

7 centimeters in scientific notation is just 7x10^0 because it is a single unit. Scientific notation allows us to compare the size of numbers more easily.

For instance 7.12x10^3 is much larger than 7.12x10^(-3) due to the exponents and how many "10s" we are mulitplying our number by.

A rhombus, which is a quadrilateral with 4 equal sides, is plotted on the coordinate plane. The coordinates of the vertices are:
AlekseyPX
If it is a rhombus then you know each side is the same length, so only have to work out one side. To do this you have to use Pythagoras' theorem (a^2 + b^2 = c^2)
So take two sets of coordinates, for example, (0,3) and (5,3), a and b represent the height difference and the length difference. Therefore (5-0)^2 + (3-3)^2 = c^2
c^2 = 25
c = 5 , which would be the side of the rhombus

One number is 9 more than another number, and the sum of the two numbers is 35.
Effectus [21]
<h2><u>Answer:</u></h2>

One number = x

Other number = 9 + x

Sum of the numbers = 35

Value of the smaller number (x) = ?

9 + x + x = 35 \\ 9 + 2x = 35 \\ 2x = 35 - 9 \\ 2x = 26 \\ x =  \frac{26}{2}  \\ x = 13

<h3>➟ The value of the smaller number is <u>13</u></h3>

Which expression is equivalent to (4(5^3)1/2?
Feliz [49]

Answer:

10\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

In this problem, we are given expression in exponent form and we have to simplify the expression.

The expression is [4(5^{3} )]^{\frac{1}{2} }

Now, we know that 5^{3} = 5 \times 5 \times 5 = 125

So, 4(5^{3} ) = 4 \times 125 = 500

Now, 500 can be written as 100 × 5 = 10² × 5

Therefore, [4(5^{3} )]^{\frac{1}{2} } = (500)^{\frac{1}{2} } = 10\sqrt{5} {Since 500 = 100 × 5 = 10² × 5} (Answer)
