Answer:

Well, centimetre and millimetre both are same smaller unit than the metre.

So, to convert from metre to millimetre a centimetre, we have to multiply by a number greater than 1 .

1m = 100cm

1m = 1000mm

So multiply by 100 or 10^2 to convert from metre to centimetre .

And multiply by 1000 or 10^3 to convert from metre to millimetre .

Converting from meter to centimeter uses a exponent of 2 and converting from meter to millimeter uses a exponent of 3

<h3>Solution:</h3>

The different units of length conversion charts are given as:

kilometre (km)

Hectometre (hm)

Decametre (dam)

Metre (m)

Decimetre (dm)

Centimetre (cm)

millimeter (m)

Converting from meters to centimeters:

From above listed units, we can observe meter is bigger unit than centimeter

So to convert from meter to centimeter, we have to move two times to reach centimeter in above listed units

So we have to multiply the value by 100 or 10 to power 2

1 meter = 100 cm

$1 meter = 10^2 cm$

So converting from meter to centimeter uses a exponent of 2

Converting from meter to millimeter:

Similarly using the above chart, we can say millimeter is smaller than meter.

So to convert from meter to millimeter, we have to move three times to reach millimeter in above listed units

In this, when we convert from meter to millimeter, we have to multiply the value by 1000

1 meter = 1000 millimeter

$1 meter = 10^3 millimeter$

So converting from meter to millimeter uses a exponent of 3

The pinata weighs 11/4 pounds without candy.He adds 8bags that weighs 3/8,3/8,1/2,1/2,1/2,3/4,3,11/4 how much will the pinata we

Natalka [10]

Answer:

$Weight = \frac{23}{2}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Weight of Pinata = 11/4 lb

Weight of candies = 3/8, 3/8, 1/2 , 1/2, 1/2, 3/4, 3, 11/4

Required

Weight of Pinata when filled with candies

To solve this question, we simply need to add all weights together

First, we need to add up the weight of the candies

$Candies = \frac{3}{8} + \frac{3}{8} + \frac{1}{2}+ \frac{1}{2}+ \frac{1}{2}+ \frac{3}{4} + 3 + \frac{11}{4}$

Take LCM

$Candies = \frac{3 + 3 + 4 +4 + 4 + 6 + 24 + 22}{8}$

$Candies = \frac{70}{8}$

Simplify:

$Candies = \frac{35}{4}$

Next; Add the weight of the candies to the weight of pinata

$Weight = Candies + Pinata$

$Weight = \frac{35}{4} + \frac{11}{4}$

Take LCM

$Weight = \frac{35 + 11}{4}$

$Weight = \frac{46}{4}$

Simplify

$Weight = \frac{23}{2}$

Hence, the weight of the Pinata after it is filled with candies is 23/2 lb

Now suppose instead that Jane withdraws $500 from her checking account and uses $300 of this money to pay her federal income tax

zysi [14]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

a. Money held by individuals in savings accounts is part of the M2 money supply, but not part ofthe M1 money supply. Therefore, when Jane withdraws $500 cash from her savings account,the M1 money supply increases by $500. However, the M2 money supply does not changebecause the M1 money supply is included as part of the M2 money supply.b. Money held by banks and governments is not included as part of the money supply. Therefore,when Jane uses $300 to pay her income tax to the U.S. Treasury, that total of $300 is taken out ofboth the M1 and M2 money supplies. When Jane deposits the remaining cash ($80) into hersavings account, the M1 money supply is reduced by that amount, but it does not affect the M2money supply. Therefore, Jane's actions cause the M2 money supply to change by $300 (theamount used to pay her taxes) and the M1 money supply to change by $380 (the amount used topay her taxes plus the amount that was deposited into her savings account). Note that it does notmatter that Jane no longer has the $120 she used to pay for the gold clubs, as the funds remainsin someone else's checking account. So this amount is neither removed from the M1 moneysupply nor the M2 money supply.NumericResponseDifficulty: 03 HardLearning Objective: 1402 List anddescribe the components of the U.S.money supply.5000380300References

4, Find a number x such that x = 1 mod 4, x 2 mod 7, and x 5 mod 9.

olchik [2.2K]

4, 7 and 9 are mutually coprime, so you can use the Chinese remainder theorem.

Start with

$x=7\cdot9+4\cdot2\cdot9+4\cdot7\cdot5$
