Answer:9.072×10³

Step-by-step explanation:

A number is said to be written in a scientific notation or standard form if it is expressed in the form a×10n where 1 is less than or equal to a and a is less than 10 and n is an integer

9072 is more than 10

So 9072÷10=907.2

Still 907.2 is more than 10

So 907.2÷10=90.72

Still 90.72 is more than 10

So 90.72÷10=9.072

9.072 is less than 10

We divided 9072 by 1000 and 1000 as a power of ten is 10³

So the answer is 9.072×10³

Answer: \frac{3}{8}x-\frac{41}{5} or  \frac{3}{8}x-8\ \frac{1}{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the following expression:

\frac{3}{4}(\frac{1}{2}x-12)+\frac{4}{5}

You can follow these steps in order to simplify it:

1.  You need to apply Distributive property:

=\frac{3}{8}x-9+\frac{4}{5}

2. And now you must add the like terms. Then:

=\frac{3}{8}x-\frac{41}{5}

Therefore you get the following answer:

\frac{3}{8}x-\frac{41}{5} or  \frac{3}{8}x-8\ \frac{1}{5}

SCORPION-xisa [38]

The trick to calculating the area here is to subdivide the diagram into smaller parts. For example, there's a 3 cm-by-3cm square. The rectangle is 4 cm by 8 cm.. The triangle has a base of 5 cm and a height of 3 cm.

Total area = area of square + area of rectangle + area of triangle

= 9 cm^2 + 32 cm^2 + (1/2)(5 cm)(3 cm)

= (9 + 32 + 7.5) cm^2

= 48.5 cm^2 (total area of figure)
