Answer:

1 light-minute ≈ 1.12×10⁷ miles, three significant figures.

Step-by-step explanation:

Light-second is equal to the distance traveled per second by light in space, which is equal to 299,792,458 metres. Other units used are light-day, light-hour and light-minute.

Significant figures are the figures or digits of a number that carry meaning and contribute to the precision of the given number.

1 light-minute = 1.118×10⁷ miles, has four significant figures.

To express this number in three significant figures, the given number is rounded.

<u>1 light-minute = 1.118×10⁷ miles ≈ 1.12×10⁷ miles, has three significant figures, as the non-zero digits are significant.</u>

Which quadratic function has a leading coefficient of 2 and a constant term of –3?
Romashka [77]
The answer is <span>f(x) = 2x2 + 3x – 3
</span>
f(x) = ax² + bx + c
a - the leading coefficient
c - the constant term

<u>We are looking for a = 2, c = -3</u>

Through the process of elimination:
The first (f(x) = 2x3 – 3) and the third choice (f(x) = –3x3 + 2) have x³ so these are not quadratic function.

In the function: <span>f(x) = –3x2 – 3x + 2
</span>a = -3
c = 2

In the function: f(x) = 2x2 + 3x – 3
a = 2
c = -3

Answer ASAP THANKKK YOUUUUU
alexandr402 [8]

Answer:

D. 40

Step-by-step explanation:

Interquartile range is the difference between the upper quartile value (Q3) and the lower quartile value (Q1).

In a box plot, Q1 is located at the beginning of the edge of the rectangular box from our left, while the Q3 is located at the end of the edge of the rectangular box to our right.

Interquartile range for City A = 70 - 40 = 30

Interquartile range for City B = 80 - 40

Therefore, city B has greater variability. The interquartile range is 40.
