Answer:

59 patients

Step-by-step explanation:

Total patients Sam saw in a week = 236

Percentage of patients near-sighted = 25%

How many of the patients Sam saw were near-sighted?

Number of patients near-sighted = 25% of 236

= 25/100 × 236

= 0.25 × 236

= 59

Number of patients near-sighted = 59 patients

The number of patients Sam saw in a week that were near-sighted is 59 patients

Answer:

1.8 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

For this case we can model the problem as a rectangle triangle.

 We know:

 Length of the sides of the triangle

 We want to know:

 Length of the hypotenuse

 Using the Pythagorean theorem we have:

 d=\sqrt{3^{2} +3^{2} }\\d = \sqrt{2(3^2)} \\d = 3\sqrt{2} \\d = 4.2 miles

 Then, the distance that he would have saved if he travels directly is:

 3 + 3 - 4.2 = 1.8 miles

 Answer:

 he would have saved:

 1.8 miles

Select the correct answer. Consider these three numbers written in scientific notation: 6. 5 × 103, 5. 5 × 105, and 1. 1 × 103.
Karo-lina-s [1.5K]

Scientific notation uses expression which gives easy access of order. The greatest number is 5.5 \times 10^5 .It is greater by smallest number by 500  times.

<h3>How to convert a number to scientific notation?</h3>

It is usually of the form a.bc.. \times 10^kexponent of 10 starts)

(we have 1 ≤ |a| < 10 ) (where |a| is magnitude of a without sign)

This notation is used to get some idea of how large or small a number is in terms of power of 10.

<h3>What are some basic properties of exponentiation?</h3>

If we have a^bbase and 'b' is called power or exponent and we call it "a is raised to the power b" (this statement might change from text to text slightly).

Exponentiation(the process of raising some number to some power) have some basic rules as:

a^{-b} = \dfrac{1}{a^b}\\\\a^0 = 1 (a \neq 0)\\\\a^1 = a\\\\(a^b)^c = a^{b \times c}\\ a^b \times a^c = a^{b+c}

The given numbers are:

  • First number = 6.5 \times 10^3 = 6500
  • Second number = 5.5 \times 10^5 = 550000
  • Third number = 1.1 \times 10^3 = 1100

The smallest number is 1,100 and greatest is 550,000

Getting the division to get to know how many times the greatest number is larger than the smallest number, we get:

\dfrac{5.5 \times  10^5}{1.1 \times 10^3} = \dfrac{5.5 \times 10^{5-3}}{1.1} = \dfrac{5.5}{1.1} \times 10^2 = 5 \times 10^2 = 500

Thus, it is found that greatest number is 5.5 \times 10^5 . It is greater by smallest number by 500  times.

Find g(4) and f(g(4)) <br> f(x)=x^2-x+1 <br> g(x)= 3x-5
Ira Lisetskai [31]

Answer:

g(4)  = 7 and f(g(4)) = 43

Step-by-step explanation:

First find g:

g(x) = 3x-5

g(x) = 3(4) - 5

g(x) = 12 - 5

g(x) = 7

Plug in:

f(g(4))

f(7)

Now, find f:

7^2 - 7 + 1

49 - 7 + 1

42 + 1

f(x) = 43
