<h3>Answer: Choice C, 9.3 x 10^7 miles </h3>

notes

* 9.3 x 10^7 is 93,000,000 or the number "93 million". This is the approximate distance from earth to the sun (I believe the average distance)

* 500 seconds = 8.333 min = 8 min, 20 seconds

====================================================

Work Shown:

speed of light is roughly 1.86 * 10^5 miles per second, assuming you meant to put an exponent between the 10 and 5. This means that in 1 second, light travels roughly 1.86*10^5 miles (about 186 thousand miles)

Multiply this by 500

500 * (1.86 * 10^5)

(500*1.86)*10^5

930 * 10^5

(9.3 * 10^2) * 10^5

9.3 * (10^2*10^5)

9.3 * 10^(2+5)

9.3 * 10^7

This is the same as 93,000,000 or "93 million" after you move the decimal point 7 spots to the right.

Please help cause I don’t know how to do this
zalisa [80]

Answer:

  4 GB

Step-by-step explanation:

Let "g" represent the number of gigabytes of data used. Then the phone bill is computed as ...

  bill = 65 + 12g

Aurora's bill is 113, so we can put that value into the equation and solve for g.

  113 = 65 + 12g

  48 = 12g . . . . . . subtract 65 from both sides of the equation

  4 = g . . . . . . . . . divide both sides of the equation by 12

Aurora used 4 gigabytes of data in September.

_____

You can also use your mathematical reasoning to solve this problem. The total bill consists of two charges: a fixed charge of 65 and a charge that depends on data. If you subtract the fixed charge from the bill, you find that the charge that depends on data is 113-65 = 48.

The data charge is 12 times the number of gigabytes. The data charge on the bill is 48, which is 12 times 4. Then the number of gigabytes is 4.

Reduce the fraction -20t5u2v3 / 48t7u4v .
kondor19780726 [428]
Deal with the numbers and variables step by step 

-20/48  = -5/12
t5 / t7 = t^-2 = 1 /t2
u^2 / u^4 = u^-2 = 1/u^2
v^3 / v = v^2

so answer is      -5v^2 / 12t^2u^2

PLEASE HELP! I AM CONFUSED! Explain your answer, thank you so much! (I will give brainlyest)
antiseptic1488 [7]

Answer:

y+3 = 2(x-4)

Step-by-step explanation:

If we have a slope and a point, we can use the point slope form for an equation of a line

y -y1= m(x-x1)

where m is the slope and (x1,y1) is the point

y--3 = 2(x-4)

y+3 = 2(x-4)
