Scientific notation, also called pattern or notation in exponential form, is a way of writing numbers that accommodate values too large (100000000000) or small (0.00000000001) to be written in a conventional manner.

 The use of this notation is based on powers of 104
 Example:
 Big numbers:
 100000000000 = 1 * 10 ^ {11}

 Small numbers:
 0.00000000001 = 1 * 10 ^{-11}

 However, in areas such as physics and chemistry, scientific notation is important to make approximations such as:
 mass of a proton
 mass of an electron and others.

Help me i beg u plzzzz

We can say at month 0 she was 43 inches tall.

And at month 18 she was 52 inches tall.

We can say that x is the number of months and y is her height.

Rise/run
y2-y1/x2-x1
52-43/18-0
9/18
1/2

So the slope is 1/2 (which is what you are looking for.) and if you were to write an equation it would be y=1/2x+43

3(x-2)+2(x+1)=-14<br> plz show work
Rom4ik [11]
Hello!

First, let's write the problem.
3\left(x-2\right)+2\left(x+1\right)=-14
Apply the distributive property on the left side of the equation.
=3x-6+2x+2
Add like terms.
=5x-4
Let's plug that in into the original equation.
5x-4=-14
Add 4 to both sides.
5x-4+4=-14+4
5x=-10
Divide both sides by 5.
\frac{5x}{5}=\frac{-10}{5}

Our final answer would be,
x=-2

You can feel free to let me know if you have any questions regarding this!
Thanks!
