Looking into the sky one night, Tori wondered how far into outer space she would get if she drove a car for 3.21 × 103 hours at

a rate of 70mph. She calculated and determined that a car travelling at 70 mph covers approximately 1.13 × 105 meters per hour. Tori wrote this expression to determine the distance she would travel into outer space. (3.21 × 103)(1.13 × 105) Estimate the distance travelled

Answer:

         \large\boxed{\large\boxed{3\times 10^8meters}}

Explanation:

One of the applications of scientific notation is to make estimations rounding the whole part of the numbers, i.e. the digits before the decimal point, to the nearest integer, and adding the exponents of the powers of base 10.

Here, you must estimate this product of two numbers written is scientific notation:

          (3.21\times 10^3)(1.13\times 10^5)

Then, for an estimation you round 3.21 to 3 and 1.13 to 1, then multiply 3 × 1 = 3. That will be the coefficient of your new power of 10.

The power or exponent will be the sum of the powers of the numbers that are being multiplied, i.e. 3 + 5 = 8.

And the result is 3\times 10^8

The unit is meters, so you write your answer as: 3\times 10^8meters

Which statement is the correct interpretation of the inequality –5 > –6? (1 point)
lilavasa [31]

Answer: OPTION D.

Step-by-step explanation:

The symbol of the inequality ">" means "greater than". Then, -5 is greater than -6.

If a negative number -a is greater than other negative number -b , then the distance between -a and zero is shorter than the distance between -b and zero.

You can see in the number line attached that -5 is closer to 0 than -6. Therefore, -5 is located to the right of -6.

Andreyy89

Answer:

22 - 34i

Step-by-step explanation:

note that i² = - 1

Given

(5 - 4i)(6 - 2i) ← expand factors using FOIL

= 30 - 10i - 24i + 8i²

= 30 - 10i - 24i - 8 ← collect like terms

22 - 34i
