With scientific notation remember this rule; if the exponent is positive, move the decimal point that many places to the right. If it is negative move it that many places to the left. What that will do is make the number larger or smaller to the correct value.
 
So for example, if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^4 you would move the decimal four places to the right. So you would end up with 10200. 
As another example if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^-2 you would move the decimal two places to the left. That would give you .0120. 

So now we are onto your problem. 2.606 x 10^7.
You would move the decimal seven places to the right, because the exponent is positive, that will make your number larger(which would make more sense if you were adding populations, right?).
That would give you 26,060,000 people living in Texas.
From there simply add the two populations together and you will have your answer!

Please help urgent!!! Find the value of x in the triangle shown below!
qwelly [4]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

so we know a few things about t his triangle,  it's a special one  :P  ,   it's called isosceles because  two of the legs are the same length, which also mean that the angle x  is the same at the other unknown angle sooo  there are  2 x's   if that makes sense?  and then we can solve this , b/c we also know that the interior angles of a triangle add up to 180°

180 = 32 + 2x

148 = 2x

74 =x

∠x = 74°

Pavlova-9 [17]

Answer:

40

Step-by-step explanation:

Ok, so basically let's start with a proportion.

x/32 = 11.25/9

Cross multiply:

x * 9 = 32 * 11.25

9x = 32 * 11.25

9x = 360

Solving for variable 'x'.

Divide each side by '9'.

x = 40

I don't know if this is the correct answer, but it was based on my math. I hope this helps!
