Write 23 in scientific notation A. 23 x 101 B. 2.3 x 101 C. 2.3 x 102 D. 2.3 x 103

When using scientific notation, you only want one number to be in front of the decimal place. If you have to make the number smaller, then the 10^nth power will be positive. If you have to make the number bigger, then 10^nth power will be negative. Example:
0.54 --> 5.4 * 10^-1
35 --> 3.5 * 10^1
The value of n depends on how many spaces the decimal point needs to be moved. For your question, putting 23 in scientific notation would look like this:
23 --> 2.3 * 10^1

Discussion for Applications of Linear Systems

Lostsunrise [7]

Step-by-step explanation:

There are certain methods for solving a system of equations. Some of which are:

Substitution Method
Elimination Method
Graphing Method

Substitution Method

Substitution method to solve a system of equations is suitable if a variable of a any equation seems isolated or could comfortably be isolated without any ration/fraction resulting.

For example, for the following system of equations

x - 2y = 11....[A]

x = 5 - y....[B]

substituting the value of x = 5 - y from equation [B] into equation [A], so that

(5 - y) - 2y = 11

5 - y - 2y = 11

3y = -6

y = -2

Elimination Method

Elimination method to solve a system of equations is suitable if both equation are in standard form, and just adding or subtracting the equations to determine an equation in one variable.

For example, for the following system of equations

2x + 7y = -5....[C]

5x - 7y = 12....[D]

Adding Equation [C] and Equation [D].

7x + 0 = 7

x = 1

Graphing Method

Sometimes graphing method may be used to solve the system of the equation and visualize the solution.

For example,

y = -2....[E]

y = 3x + 1....[F]

The solution for this system of equation is the point of intersection of both the lines, which is shown in attached figure. The point of intersection is (-1, -2).

Hence, the solution of this system of equations is (-1, -2), as shown in attached figure.

Jay estimates that a basketball weights about .5 pounds. Shawna estimates that a basketball weights about.05. Whose estimate is

Natasha_Volkova [10]

Answer:

Jay's estimate is closer to the actual weight of the basketball

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard weight of an NBA basketball is 1.4 pounds.

Judging the accuracy of Jay's and Shawna's answer based on their percentage error when compared with the standard, we have that Jay's answer has a lower error as shown below

Error = (Standard value - Estimated value)/ Standard Value ×100

Error in Jays answer = $\frac{1.4 - 0.5}{1.4}$ × 100 = 64.28 %

Error in Shawna's answer = $\frac{1.4 - 0.05}{1.4}$ × 100 = 96.42%

From this, It is obvious that Jay's answer has a lower percentage error when compared to the actual value.

Algebra 1A unit 6 lesson 6

AnnyKZ [126]

1. y = -x - 2...slope here is -1. A parallel line will have the same slope

y = mx + b
slope(m) = -1
(2,-2)...x = 2 and y = -2
now we sub and find b, the y int
-2 = -1(2) + b
-2 = -2 + b
-2 + 2 = b
0 = b

so ur parallel equation is : y = -x
=========================
2. -1 = -3/2(2) + b
-1 = -3 + b
-1 + 3 = b
2 = b
parallel equation is : y = -3/2x + 2
==========================
3. parallel equation is : x = 4
==========================
4. 3 = 1/2(-2) + b
3 = -1 + b
3 + 1 = b
4 = b
parallel equation is : y = 1/2x + 4
===========================
5. y + 0 = 2(x - 5)
y = 2x - 10 <== parallel line
============================
6. neither
============================
7. if ur second equation is : 2x + y = 7, then the lines are parallel
============================
8. neither
============================
9. sometimes
============================
10. never

A commuter airline makes lattes in the galley and sells them to passengers. A regular latte contains a shot of espresso, 1 cup o

Alik [6]

Answer:

To maximize profit, the amount of each type of coffees made are;

The number of regular latte made = 52 cups

The number of low-fat latte made = 48 cups

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters are;

The number of espresso in a regular latte = 1 shot

The number of cups of 2% milk in regular latte = 1 cup

The amount of whipped cream in a regular latte = 0.5 cup

The number of cups of skim milk in the low-fat latte = 1.25 cup

The number of espresso in a low-fat latte = 1 shot

The amount of whipped cream in a low-fat latte = 0 cup

The number of cups of espresso in the journey = 100 shots

The number of cups of skim milk in the journey = 60 cups

The number of cups of 2% milk in the journey = 60 cups

The amount of profit the airline makes on each regular latte = $1.58

The amount of profit the airline makes on each low-fat latte = $1.65

Let 'x' represent the number regular lattes made and let 'y' represent the number low-fat lattes made, we have;

x ≤ 30/0.5 = 60

x ≤ 60

y ≤ 60

y ≤ 60/1.25 = 48

∴ y ≤ 48

x + y ≤ 100

Therefore, the given that more profit is made from the sale of low-fat latte than for regular latte, the maximum number of low-fat latte should be made

Therefore, the number of low-fat latte made, y = 48

Therefore, the number of regular latte made, x ≤ 100 - 48 = 52

For maximum profit, the maximum number of low-fat latte, 'x', should be made

Therefore, x = 52

The ideal mix of regular and low-fat lattes to maximize profit is 52 cups of regular latte and 48 cups of low-fat latte

Could someone PLEASE just HELP me with this question.

agasfer [191]

Answer

$\frac{7}{37}$

Detailed Explanation

To simply answer this, since .189 has three digits we are going to be inserting 999 as the denominator since it is a repeating decimal.

$\frac{189}{999}$

We could simplify the answer!

$\frac{189}{999}$

Therefore, the answer would simply be $\frac{7}{37}$

$\frac{7}{37}$

Always Remember

In the future, always remember whenever you have a three digit decimal and the problem asks you to convert it into a fraction, you should always insert 1000 as the denominator (the numerator is basically the decimal without the decimal point) and simplify if necessary.
