Answer:

The distance covered is 2.1\times 10^{6}  

The value of y is 6.          

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A rocket ship is travelling at an average speed of 1.75 \times 10^4 miles per hour.

To find : How many miles will the rocket ship travel in 1.2 \times 10^2  hours and find the value of y in the solution expression?

Solution :

The speed is  1.75 \times 10^4 miles per hour.

The time taken is  1.2 \times 10^2  hours

The distance covered is d=s\times t

d=(1.75 \times 10^4)(1.2 \times 10^2)

Step 1 -  Write the expression:

(1.75 \times 10^4)(1.2 \times 10^2)

Step 2 - Rearrange the expression :

(1.75 \times 1.2)(10^4 \times 10^2)

Step 3 - Multiply the coefficients :

(2.1)(10^4 \times 10^2)

Step 4 - Apply the product of powers :

2.1\times 10^{4+2}

2.1\times 10^{6}  

The distance covered is 2.1\times 10^{6}  

On comparing with 2.1\times 10^{y}  

The value of y is 6 in the solution.

y = 4 + 2 = 6 ( the sum of the exponents)

I need the complete answer to this problem, please circle the final answer and what I should write

Answer:

f(t) = 8400(1.0018)^{12t}

2.22%

Step-by-step explanation:

$8400 is invested in an account earning 2.2% interest (APR), compounded monthly.

So, the value of the account after t years will be given by  

f(t) =  8400 (1 + \frac{2.2}{12 \times 100} )^{12t} = 8400(1.0018)^{12t}        {Rounded to the four decimal places} (Answer)

Now, for t = 1 year, f(1) = $8586.67

So, the percentage of growth per year (APY) = \frac{(8586.67 - 8400) \times 100}{8400} = 2.22% {Rounded to the nearest hundredth of percent} (Answer)

510 in 30 because that would be 17 per hour and 960 in 60 would be 16 per hour

What is the value of y?
Amiraneli [1.4K]

Answer:

\boxed{D. \: 40\degree}

Step-by-step explanation:

<em>Angle sum property of triangle states that the sum of interior angles of a triangle is 180°</em>

So,

=  > 2y \degree + (y + 10)\degree + 50\degree = 180\degree \\  \\  =  > 2y\degree + y\degree + 10\degree + 50\degree = 180\degree \\  \\  =  > 3y\degree + 60\degree = 180\degree \\  \\  =  > 3y\degree = 180\degree - 60\degree \\  \\  =  > 3y\degree = 120\degree \\  \\  =  > y =  \frac{120\degree}{3\degree}  \\  \\  =  > y = 40\degree
