Answer:

1.2 x 10⁴

Step-by-step explanation:

12,000 has 2 places of other numbers before a spam of zeroes.

Take the numbers before zeroes and put a decimal to the left of the last digit.

Last digit is 2 so a decimal goes before 2

1.2

Count how many places the decimal moved: this number is your power of 10.

12000.  --> 1.2000

It moved 4 places.

12,000 = 1.2 x 10⁴

Here are two expressions whose product is a new expression, :
Vera_Pavlovna [14]

Answer:

1. Fill in the box with 1

2. Fill in the box with -2

Step-by-step explanation:

Expression:

(-2x^3 + [\ ]x)(x^{[\ ]}+1.5) = A

Solving (1): Fill in the box to make it a polynomial.

To make it a polynomial, we simply fill in the box with a positive integer (say 1)

Fill in the box with 1

(-2x^3 + [1]x)(x^{[1]}+1.5) = A

Remove the square brackets

(-2x^3 + x)(x^1+1.5) = A

(-2x^3 + x)(x+1.5) = A

Open bracket

-2x^4 - 3x^3 + x^2 + 1.5x = A

Reorder

A = -2x^4 - 3x^3 + x^2 + 1.5x

The above expression is a polynomial.

This will work for any positive integer filled in the box

Solving (2): Fill in the box to make it not a polynomial.

The powers of a polynomial are greater than or equal to 0.

So, when the boxes are filled with a negative integer (say -2), the expression will cease to be a polynomial

Fill in the box with -2

(-2x^3 + [-2]x)(x^{[-2]}+1.5) = A

Remove the square brackets

(-2x^3 - 2x)(x^{-2}+1.5) = A

Reorder

A = (-2x^3 - 2x)(x^{-2}+1.5)

Open brackets

A = -2x-3x^3-2x^{-1}-3x

Collect Like Terms

A = -3x^3-2x-3x-2x^{-1}

A = -3x^3-5x-2x^{-1}

Notice that the least power of x is -1.

Hence, this is not a polynomial.

Good Afternoon,

Okay so we have 15 hours already, now we need to add 60 minutes, which is exactly an hour.

Jeremy raised $250 for charity last year. This year he raised 20% more than he raised last year. How much money did Jeremy raise
Lesechka [4]
You would find this by doing 250 times 20% which is .2 and you would get 50 so you would add 250 plus 50 and get 300.
The answer is $300

AlekseyPX

Answer:

Luis

Step-by-step explanation:

One hour is 60 minutes total, leaving and extra 30 minutes for Ava, which is half of 60. So, in fraction form, she walked 1 1/2 OR 1 2/4 hours, which is less than Luis. He walked about an hour and 45 minutes total, or 105 minutes.
