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.

Write an algebraic expression to answer each question do this on a sheet of paper
Korolek [52]

Hello.

In 10 years, his age will be

\mathrm{z+10}

The sum of his current age and 10 equals his age in 10 years.

2 years ago his age was

\mathrm{z-2}

The difference of his current age and 2 equals his age 2 years ago.

7 years ago his age was

\mathrm{z-7}

The difference of his current age and 7 equals his age 7 years ago.

Therefore, his age after 10 years will be \mathrm{z+10}, his age 2 years ago was \mathrm{z-2}, and his age 7 years ago was \mathrm{z-7}

I hope it helps.

Have a nice day.

Find the interest earned and the future value of an annuity with weekly payments of $400 for three years into an account that pa
qaws [65]

Answer:

the interest earned= 93.401

and the future value of an annuity= 493.401

Step-by-step explanation:

Given Data:

Interest rate= 7%

time,t = 3 years

weekly payment, P= 400

At the end of 3 years, final investment A= ?

n= 52 as it is weekly

As per the interest formula

A= P(1+r/n)^nt

Putting value in above equation

= 400\left(1+\frac{0.07}{52}\right)^{156}

= 493.401

Interest earned = A-P

                           = 493.401-400

                          = 93.401 !

Mr. Greg had 8 sandwiches. He gave 1/4 to Nehamiah, 1/4 to Elijah, and 1/4 to Elizabeth. How many sandwiches did Mr. Greg have l
SVEN [57.7K]
There are many ways to work this out. One way could be:

Add up:
1/4 + 1/4 + 1/4 = 3/4

Find 3/4 of 8 so;
8 / 4 = 2
2 x 3 = 6

Find what's remaining:
8 - 6 = 2

So Mr.Greg has sandwiches left.
Hope it helped :)
