Express 52 thousandths in scientific notation

Mathematics
1 answer:
Alexus [3.1K]3 years ago
8 0

Answer:

5.2 x 10^-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation is used to simplify very large or very small numbers.

The formula for scientific notation is (a x 10^ n)

(a) is a number that is both greater than 1 and less than 10

(n) is the number of places the decimal place moves. This number can be positive or negative depending on the number you are converting. If the original number is greater than 1 (n) will be positive, and if the number is less than 1 (n) will be negative.

First you should write out the number.

0.052

Then, you should determine the number places the decimal point must move, and create a number greater than 1 and less than 10. (You should also pay attention to the direction the decimal point moves)

For this problem you will move the decimal place 2 places to the right to create the number 5.2.

Last, substitute the values into the formula. For this problem (a)= 5.2 and (n)= -2. This gives us the expression 5.2 x 10^-2.

Can someone please help me with this? ​
geniusboy [140]

Answer: B and D

Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve the terms inside of the parenthesis. As a general rule, whenever you multiply two terms that have the same base, you can add their exponents.

Applying this rule, the base in the problem is 6, and the exponents are 3 and -4. The sum of 3 and -4 leaves -1. Therefore, this is one of our solutions:

(6^-^1)^-^3

When you have an exponential term raised to another exponent, you can simply multiply the exponents. In the previous solution given above, multiply -1 and -3 to get 3. Therefore our second solution is:

6^3

How do I solve for the missing side lengths. My sender has to be as a radical in simplest form.
MrMuchimi

Answer: 6√6

Step-by-step explanation: When an angle is 45 degrees in a triangle it is actually half a square (I know right!!!), so, therefore, the other side length will also be 6, and then using the Pythagorean theorem we get the hypotenuse to be 6√2. Now, when an angle is 60 degrees in a triangle it is actually half an equilateral triangle (I know right!!!), so, therefore, the other side length will be double the length, 12√2, and using the Pythagorean theorem we get the side length x to be 6√6! Hope this helps!

What is the area of a 45 degree sector of a circle with a radius of 12in.? Use 3.14 and round the answer to the nearest square i
Arturiano [62]

Answer:

57 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

First consider that a 45 degree sector of a circle is 45/360 of the area of the full circle from which it is cut.  This comes out to 1/8 of the full circle area.

The area of a circle of radius 12" is A = π(12 ")^2, or A = 144π.

The area of the sector in question is 1/8 of that, or

A = (1/8)(144π), or A = 18π square inches, or approximately 57 square inches.

What is the measure of angle A in the triangle?
musickatia [10]

Answer:

A = 50

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles of a triangle is 180 degrees

A+B+C =180

2x-10 + 70 + x+30 = 180

Combine like terms

3x +90 = 180

Subtract 90 from each side

3x +90-90 = 180-90

3x= 90

Divide each side by 3

3x/3=90/3

x =30

We want to find A

A =2x-10

   = 2*30 -10

   =60-10

  =50
