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.

The radius of a circle measures 5 inches A central angle of the circle measuring 12 radians cuts off a sector
blagie [28]

Answer:

  25/4 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The area of a sector of a circle is given by the formula ...

  A = (1/2)r²θ

where r is the radius and θ is the central angle in radians.

For your sector, the area is ...

  A = (1/2)(5 in)²(1/2) = 25/4 in²

What is the equation in standard form of the line that passes through the point (1, 24) and has a slope of -0.6.
lana [24]

Answer:

0.6x+y=24.6

Step-by-step explanation:

y-y1=m(x-x1)

y-24=-0.6(x-1)

y=-0.6x+0.6+24

y=-0.6x+24.6

y-(-0.6x)=24.6

y+0.6x=24.6

0.6x+y=24.6
