Answer:

<h2>C. None of the above</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

\text{The formula of a distance between x and y on a number line:}\\\\d=|b-a|=|a-b|\\\\\text{We have}\ a=\dfrac{5}{2}\ \text{and}\ b=4\dfrac{7}{8}.\ \text{The distance:}\\\\d=\left|\dfrac{5}{2}-4\dfrac{7}{8}\right|=\left|4\dfrac{7}{8}-\dfrac{5}{2}\right|}

Convert this number given in standard form into scientific notation. 0. 0000069 What is the value in scientific notation? 0. 69
Len [333]

Scientific notation is used so that the order of the number is known in first glance. The value of the given number in scientific notation is given by: Option B: 6.9 \times 10^{-6}

<h3>How does scientific notations work?</h3>

The number is written in the form a \times 10^b where we have 1 \leq a < 10

The number b shows the order, which is the most important figure for which scientific notation is used. It tells us how much order large or small a value is in powers of 10. We can for a time, ignore the value of 'a' for two comparable quantities and only compare their orders(this type of comparison is useful when difference is too big, like size of human to size of a star etc sort of comparisons).

Scientific notations have some of the profits as:

  • Better readability due to compact representation
  • Its value in terms of power of 10 is known, which helps in easy comparison of quantities differing by a large value.


For the given case, the number in consideration is 0.0000069

Rewriting it in fraction form, we get:

0.0000069  = \dfrac{69}{10000000} = \dfrac{69}{10^7} = 69 \times 10^{-7} = 6.9 \times 10 \times 10^{-7}\\\\0.0000069  =  6.9 \time 10 ^{-7 +1} \\0.0000069  = 6.9\times 10^{-6}

(we used two facts: first that : \dfrac{a}{b} = a \times \dfrac{1}{b}

and second that: a^{-b}= \dfrac{1}{a^b}

Thus, the value of the given number in scientific notation is given by: Option B: 6.9 \times 10^{-6}

Solve Sine inverse x +sine inverse 2x = π/3 <br> Please solve it faster..
LuckyWell [14K]
Arcsin x + arcsin 2x = π/3

arcsin 2x =  π/3 - arcsin x

sin[arcsin 2x] = sin[π/3 - arcsin x] (remember the left side is like sin(a-b)

2x = sinπ/3 cos(arcsin x)-cosπ/3 sin(arc sinx)

2x = √3/2 . cos(arcsin x) - (1/2)x)

but cos(arcsin x) = √(1-x²)===>2x = √3/2 .√(1-x²)  - (1/2)x)

Reduce to same denominator:

(4x) = √3 .√(1-x²)  - (x)===>5x = √3 .√(1-x²)

Square both sides==> 25x²=3(1-x²)

28 x² = 3 & x² = 3/28 &  x =√(3/28)

Jenny thinks that the expression below is equal to x²-4. If you agree, show that she is correct. If you disagree, show that she
sergiy2304 [10]

Answer:

Jenny is wrong the correct answer is x²+ 4 - 4 x.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that

(x-2)³∕x-2

(x-2)³∕(x-2) =(x-2) (x-2)²∕(x-2)

(x-2)³∕(x-2) = (x-2)²

As we know that

(a-b)² = a²+b² - 2 ab

So

(x-2)² = x²+ 2² - 2 ˣ 2 ˣ x =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

(x-2)² =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

It means that

(x-2)³∕(x-2) = (x-2)² =  x²+ 4 - 4 x

So Jenny is wrong the correct answer is x²+ 4 - 4 x.

A rental car agency charges $30.00 per day
lutik1710 [3]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>They should travel 120 mils in one day for both rental agencies  to cost the same amount to rent</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

A rental car agency charges $30.00 per day  plus per mile $0.15.

Let x be the number of miles travelled by car

Their total cost = 30 + (0.15x)   ... (1)

Another rental car  agency charges $36.00 per day plus $0.10  per mile

Their total cost = 36 + (0.10x)   ... (2)

Equating (1) and (2), we get

30 + (0.15x) = 36 + (0.10x)

36 - 30 = 0.15x - 0.10x

6 = 0.05x

x = 120 miles

They should travel 120 mils in one day for both rental agencies  to cost the same amount to rent
