Answer:

7.8792x10^{13}miles

Step-by-step explanation:

To calculate the distance between the star that is 13.4 light years away from the earth, you just have to multiply 13.4 by 5,880,000,000,000, which is how many miles there are in a light year.

So you´d get:

(13.4)(5,880,000,000,000)=78792000000000

To convert this into scientific notation, you just have to count how many numbers are there after the first numeric value, in this case how many numbers are there after the first seven.

(7"8792000000000

There are 13 numbers after the first seven now you just add a decimal point after the seven and add a x10^{X}, the X is the number of numeric values after the decimal point, since in this case there are 13 numeric values after the decimal point we added, we just add the 13 instead of the X:

x10^{13}

And the number (7"8792000000000 in scientific notation would be:

7.8792x10^{13}

<u>Answer</u>:

c = 9

<u>Explanation</u>:

given: f(x)=3x-7

<em>if f(c) =20</em>

To solve this replace x with c and then y is 20.

<u>Solve</u>:

3c - 7 = 20

3c = 27

c = 27 ÷ 3

c = 9

Sav [38]

\bf \left( \cfrac{6^5}{7^3} \right)^2\implies \left( \cfrac{6^{5\cdot 2}}{7^{3\cdot 2}} \right)\implies \cfrac{6^{10}}{7^6}\implies \cfrac{60466176}{117649}\implies 513\frac{112239}{117649}
