.01 m

Equation with an exponent 1 x 10^{-2} = .01 m

First, it's important to know that there are 100 centimeters in 1 meter. Second, it's important to know that 10^{-2} is the same as .01. In order to find out how many meters are in 1 centimeter, one must multiply 1 cm by 10^{-2}. It's important to use a negative exponent because centimeters are smaller than meters. Since we are going from a small unit of measurement to a bigger unit of measurement a negative exponent must be used.

<h3>Further Explanation</h3>

Meters

A meter is a unit of metric measurement. Track and Field events use the metric system because it is a universal unit of measurement. Inches and feet are not units used all over the world. The Olympic Games use the metric system so this is the system that is universally adopted throughout the world for many sporting events, including track and field. Sports that are more commonly attributed to the USA and not an Olympic event often uses the US system. An example is football. The field is measured in yards instead of meters.

Centimeters

The prefix cent- means 100. Often it is used to denote a hundredth unit of measurement in the metric system. This is a useful item to know because it can be applied to many different math terms such as centimeters or century (100 years). A penny is one-hundredth of a dollar because it takes 100 pennies to equal one dollar.

Exponents

An exponent is the amount of times a number is multiplied to itself. For example  is the same as 4 x 4 = 16. This is a faster way to write repeated multiplication.

Remember multiplication is a faster way to write repeated addition! Exponents are a faster way to write repeated multiplication.

Answer:

Honey Bee's length measures 1cm

We wanna convert it into metres

Cm is smaller unit than metre

So, To convert from cm to m

We have to make it divide by a number greater than 1 or multiply by no less than 1

Here, we have to multiply it by

{10}^{ - 2}

that is, we have to multiply by 0.01

or make it divide by

{10}^{2}

that is, we have to divide by 100

As honey bees length = 1cm

which is equivalent to 0.01 m

What is the point-slope form
sertanlavr [38]

Answer:

Point-slope is the general form y-y₁=m(x-x₁) for linear equations. It emphasizes the slope of the line and a point on the line (that is not the y-intercept). Watch this video to learn more about it and see some examples. Created by Sal Khan.

Look At picture! Below!
eimsori [14]

Answer:

The answer is: the second one

Step-by-step explanation:

                                             (2x + 2)/y = 4w + 2

pass y to the right side        2x + 2 = y(4w + 2)

expand                                   2x +2 = 4wy + 2y

pass 2 to the right                2x = 4wy + 2y -2

pass 2 to the right                x = (4wy + 2y - 2)/2

simplify                                  x = 2wy + y - 1 or = 2yw + y -1

Can someone clearly explain and workout Q19? Much appreciated
Anna007 [38]
The x coefficient is 2
Take half of 2 to get 2/2 = 1
Square 1 to get 1^2 = 1

Add and subtract 1 to the expression. This is the same as adding 0. 

x^2 + 2x + 2
x^2 + 2x + 2 + 0
x^2 + 2x + 2 + (1-1)
(x^2 + 2x + 1) + 2 - 1
(x+1)^2 + 1

Answer: (x+1)^2 + 1

Rashid [163]
When it comes to probability, the answer is always expressed as part of a whole. With that being said, your answer for this problem can be a ratio, fraction or in percentage. Probability is the study of finding the chances or odds of an event happening with the use of statistics. You are already given the statistics of baby girls and baby boys. Note that you are asked to find the probability of the baby being a girl. So, the part here includes the 248, while the whole is 248+13 = 261. Therefore, the probability is 248/261 or 0.95 or 95%. That means that the likelihood of having a girl baby using this technique is very high.
