<h2>The required "option A) 20" is correct.</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the smaller than 4 ×10^{-2}.

To find, the number of times smaller is 2 × 10^{-3} than 4 × 10^{-2} = ?

∴ x = \dfrac{4\times 10^{-2}}{2\times 10^{-3}}

= 2 × 10^{-2} × 10^{3}

Using the identity,

a^{m}=\dfrac{1}{a^{-m}}

= 2 × 10^{-2+3}

Using the identity,

a^{m} \timesa^{n}=a^{m+n}

= 2 × 10^{1}

= 2 × 10

= 20

Thus, the required "option A) 20" is correct.

Find two consecutive even integers such that the smaller added to three times the larger gives a sum of 54
REY [17]
Let n be the first even integer, and n+2 will be the second even integer. (Why? Think 2 and 4, 2+2=4. This is the case for every consecutive even integers).

n + 3(n+2) = 54
n + 3n + 6 = 54
4n = 48
n = 12, n+2 = 14

Pavel [41]
A=πr^2s/360  multiply both sides by 360

360A=sπr^2  divide both sides by πr^2

s=360A/(πr^2)
