1 billion = 1,000,000,000 years = 10^9 years

10,000 years = 10^4 years

10^4 years are represented with a 100-meter-long timeline

10^9 years are represented with a x-meter-long timeline

10^4/100 = 10^9/x

x = 10^7 m

1 billion = 10^9 years are represented with a 10^7-meter-long timeline

4.5 billion = 4.5*10^9 years are represented with a 4.5*10^7-meter-long timeline

(4.5*10^7 - 100) meters from the start is where the written human history begins

Solve the following absolute value equations. Show the solution set and check your answers. |0.3-3/5k|-0.4=1.2

9966 [12]

Answer:

**The equation is not clear, so I have provided both options**

<h3><u>Option 1</u></h3>

$\left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k\right|-0.4=1.2$

$\implies \left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k\right|=1.6$

<u>Solution 1</u>

$\implies 0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k=1.6$

$\implies -\dfrac{3}{5}k=1.3$

$\implies k=-\dfrac{13}{6}$

<u>Solution 2</u>

$\implies -(0.3-\dfrac{3}{5}k)=1.6$

$\implies -0.3+\dfrac{3}{5}k=1.6$

$\implies \dfrac{3}{5}k=1.9$

$\implies k=\dfrac{19}{6}$

<h3><u>Option 2</u></h3>

$\left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k}\right|-0.4=1.2$

$\implies \left|0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k}\right|=1.6$

<u>Solution 1</u>

$\implies 0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k}=1.6$

$\implies -\dfrac{3}{5k}=1.3$

$\implies -3=6.5k$

$\implies k=-\dfrac{6}{13}$

<u>Solution 2</u>

$\implies -(0.3-\dfrac{3}{5k})=1.6$

$\implies -0.3+\dfrac{3}{5k}=1.6$

$\implies \dfrac{3}{5k}=1.9$

$\implies 3=9.5k$

$\implies k=\dfrac{6}{19}$

True [87]

Answer:

17

Step-by-step explanation:

m<1 = (4x + 2)

m<3 = (5x - 15)

To find the value of x, we need to generate an equation.

<1 and <3 are vertical angles. Vertical angles are congruent. Therefore:

m<1 = m<3

(4x + 2) = (5x - 15)

Use this equation to solve for x

4x + 2 = 5x - 15

Subtract 5x from both sides

4x + 2 - 5x = 5x - 15 - 5x

-x + 2 = -15

Subtract 2 from both sides

-x + 2 - 2 = -15 - 2

-x = -17

Divide both sides by -1

x = 17

13 divided by 11.3 is 1.150442477876106. So 15 by 1.150442477876106 and you get 13.03846162772485. Just round it to the nearest tenth and you get 13.0.
