Answer:

for 5 hours: b is 6

for 5 minutes: b is 4

60 times more skin in 5 hours than 5 minutes

Step-by-step explanation:

I think it should be written as a x 10^b, so I'm going to answer it that way.  

3 x 10^6 = 5 times 10^6

   10^6 = 1,000,000, so we have 3 x 1,000,000 = 3,000, 000

5 x 10^4 = 5 times 10^4

   10^4 = 10,000, so we have 5 x 10,000 = 50, 000

For part 3, divide 3 million by 50 thousand to find the scalar multiple

   3,000,000/50,000 = 300/5 = 60

Is x = -7, the solution to -11 + 2x = -26? Justify your answer in complete sentences.
Natali5045456 [20]
First of all, you can move the +2x to the other side:
-11 = -26 - 2x

Then you can move the -26 to the other side and then simplify:
-11+26 = -2x
 15 = -2x

Then you can divide both sides by 2:
7.5 = -x

Then you can flip the sides and the signs around:
x = -7.5

No, The answer is not -7, it is -7.5
Hope this helps! :)
