Pavel [41]

Answer:

The answer is x = 9

Step-by-step explanation:

(1/3)*x+4 = x-2 // - x-2

(1/3)*x-x+2+4 = 0

6-2/3*x = 0 // - 6

-2/3*x = -6 // : -2/3

x = -6/(-2/3)

x = 9

Answer:

2.4 × 10⁶

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

$\sf x=3.8 \times 10^5$

$\sf y=5.9 \times 10^4$

To calculate the value of R, substitute the given values into the given formula:

$\begin{aligned}\sf R & = \sf \dfrac{x^2}{y}\\\\ \implies \sf R& = \sf \dfrac{(3.8 \times 10^5)^2}{5.9 \times 10^4}\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{3.8^2 \times (10^5)^2}{5.9 \times 10^4}\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{14.44 \times 10^{10}}{5.9 \times 10^4}\\\\& = \sf \dfrac{14.44}{5.9} \times \dfrac{10^{10}}{10^4}\\\\& = \sf 2.4474... \times 10^{(10-4)}\\\\& = \sf 2.4474... \times 10^6\\\\\end{aligned}$
