Why is it better to use the metric system, rather than the English system, in scientific measurement?

Answer:

Because the metric system is acknowledged by all countries except for the US, therefore, to put it only in a format understood by Americans would make it harder for the larger population of the scientific community to understand. If it's in the metric system, it can easily be understood for peer review and or involvement

PLEASEE HELP I NEED IT its about due

Answer:

∠GJK is 22°

Step-by-step explanation:

Because the shape is a rectangle we know that GH is parallel to JI

This means that because of the alternate angle rule we know that

5x+8 = 7x-16

Then we solve for x

5x+8-5x = 7x-16-5x

8+16=2x-16+16

$\frac{24}{2}$ = $\frac{2x}{2}$

x=16

So this means that ∠HJI is 68°

Because the shape is a rectangle we know that ∠GJI is a right angle

This means that ∠GJK is 90-∠HJI because of the angles on a right angle rule

90-68 =22

∴∠GJK is 22°

Which expression is equivalent to (4x^(3)y^(5))(3x^(5)y)^(2)

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

$(4x^3y^5)(3x^5y)^2 = 36*x^{13}y^7$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$(4x^3y^5)(3x^5y)^2$

Required

The equivalent expression

We have:

$(4x^3y^5)(3x^5y)^2$

Expand

$(4x^3y^5)(3x^5y)^2 = 4x^3y^5*9x^{10}y^2$

Further expand

$(4x^3y^5)(3x^5y)^2 = 4*9*x^3*x^{10}y^5*y^2$

Apply laws of indices

$(4x^3y^5)(3x^5y)^2 = 36*x^{13}y^7$
