A: $4.2* 10^{5}$

B: 6* $10^{4}$ is 60000 so to find the answer do 420000/60000 to get a final time of 7 hours.

It would take 7 hours to get to the moon

Sam and Mary collect marbles. “If you give me 5 marbles I’ll have twice as many as you.” said Sam to Mary.

ivann1987 [24]

Answer:

54 marbles

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is a word problem leading to a simultaneous equation

Let 'x' represent the initial number of marbles with Sam, and let 'y' represent the initial number of marbles with Mary,

If Mary gives Sam 5 marbles, we have;

x + 5 = 2 × (y - 5)...(1)

If Sam gives Mary 4 marbles, we get;

x - 4 = y + 4...(2)

From equation (1), we get;

x + 5 = 2 × (y - 5) = 2·y - 10

x = 2·y - 10 - 5 = 2·y - 15

x = 2·y - 15...(3)

From equation (2), we have;

x - 4 = y + 4

∴ x = y + 4 + 4 = y + 8

x = y + 8...(4)

Equating the two values of 'x' in equation (3), and equation (4), we get;

2·y - 15 = y + 8

2·y - y = 8 + 15 = 23

∴ y = 23

From equation (4), we get;

x = y + 8 = 23 + 8 = 31

x = 31

The total number of marbles they have altogether = x + y

However, x + y = 23 + 31 = 54

Therefore;

The total number of marbles they have altogether = 54 marbles.

Slope of (-20,9) (14,9)

skelet666 [1.2K]

Y2-y1/x2-x1 is slope so

9-9/14-(-20) so you get 0/34 which means there is no slope since they have the same y (the equation would be y=0x+9 therefore y=9)
Which makes sense since the equation is a straight line

How do you model a decimal using a fraction

stiks02 [169]

Okie dokie,
When converting a decimal, you use the place the decimal is in...
Let's review the places: tenths, hundredths, thousandths, etc.
You look at the last number to determine what place you're using!
-------------------
Now here's an example for the tenths place:
.5
it's in the tenths place, right? so put it over that number (with no decimal) over a 10.
(mobile) 5/10 or $\frac{5}{10}$
Now, decide if you can simplify. You can! 5/10 simplifies down to 1/2.
$\frac{1}{2}$ is your answer!
--------
Example for the hundredths place:
.26
the last number is in the hundredths place, so put the number (without a decimal) over 100!
26/100 or $\frac{26}{100}$
You can simplify this!
13/50 is your answer!

Calculators can also come in handy!
Good luck!
