Answer:

0.000002015 is not equal to 2.015x10^6

Step-by-step explanation:

When a power of 10 is positive the dot must be moved to the right, and when the power of 10 is negative, the dot must be moved to the left.

For example 50.000x10^3=50000 and 45.00x10^{-3}=0.045

So

2.015x10^6=2,015,000

wich is clearly not equal to 0.000002015

the correct scientific notation for 0.000002015 must be:

2.015x10^{-6}

With a negative in the power of 10, referring to a small quantity.

The average daily temperature, t, in degrees fahrenheit for a city as a function of the month of the year, m, can be modeled by
Vikentia [17]

The answer will be t = sin((m.\frac{\pi}{6})+55) average daily temperature, t, in degrees Fahrenheit for a city as a function of the month of the year.

<h3>What is temperature?</h3>

Temperature is the degree or intensity of heat present in a substance or object, especially as expressed according to a comparative scale and shown by a thermometer or perceived by touch.

<h3>TO SOLVE:</h3>

35cos(\frac{\pi}{6(m+3)}+55)\\\\35 cos(\frac{\pi m}{6} + 55 + \frac{\pi}{2})\\

suppose x = m.\frac{\pi}{6}+55 and \frac{\pi}{2} = 90 degree

We know, cos(x+90°) = - sin(X)

⇒ cos((m.\frac{\pi}{6})+55+90degree)degree = -sin((m.\frac{\pi}{6})+55)

⇒ t = sin((m.\frac{\pi}{6})+55)

Hence the answer will be t = sin((m.\frac{\pi}{6})+55) average daily temperature, t, in degrees Fahrenheit for a city as a function of the month of the year.

On Thursday, a local hamburger shop sold a combined total of 327 hamburgers and cheeseburgers. The number of cheeseburgers sold
jeka94

Answer:

The number of hamburgers is 109.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let h = number of hamburgers

Let c = number of cheeseburgers

The total number sold gives us the equation below.

h + c = 327

"The number of cheeseburgers sold was two times the number of hamburgers sold.

This gives us the equation

c = 2h

Now we substitute c with 2h in the first equation and solve for h.

h + 2h = 327

3h = 327

h = 109

The number of hamburgers is 109.
