Weight is 1.7 × 10^5 kg

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Given that the weight of the blue whale = 170 tonnes
  • Step 2: Convert the number of tonnes into kg.

⇒ 170 tonnes = 170 × 1000 (1 tonne = 1000 kg)

⇒ 170 tonnes = 17 × 10^4 kg

  • Step 3: Convert it into standard format, that is with just one decimal point.

⇒ 17 × 10^4 = 1.7 × 10^5 kg (Dividing and multiplying by 10 on both sides)

24 feet long :)
All I did was I divided the 36 into 3 equal parts of 12, then doubled the 12 to make that longer piece 24 feet. This 24 foot piece would be twice as long as the other leftover 12 foot piece since 12x2=24

What is the equation of a circle with the center (2,3) and radius 3
ruslelena [56]

Answer:

(x - 2)² + (y - 3)² = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of a circle in standard form is

(x - h)² + (y - k)² = r²

where (h, k) are the coordinates of the centre and r is the radius

here (h, k) = (2, 3) and r = 3, hence

(x - 2)² + (y - 3)² = 9 ← equation of circle
