Option C

The simplified form of given expression is 4.46 \times 10^{-4}

<em><u>Solution:</u></em>

Given that we have to simplify the expression shown below

0.00048 - (3.4 \times 10^{-5})

Let us first convert 0.00048 to scientific notation

<em><u>Steps to follow:</u></em>

Move the decimal point in your number until there is only one non-zero digit to the left of the decimal point. The resulting decimal number is a.

Count how many places you moved the decimal point. This number is b.

If you moved the decimal to the left b is positive.

If you moved the decimal to the right b is negative.

If you did not need to move the decimal b = 0.

Write your scientific notation number as a x 10^b and read it as "a times 10 to the power of b."

Remove trailing 0's only if they were originally to the left of the decimal point.

0.00048 = 4.8 \times 10^{-4}

So the given expression becomes,

\rightarrow 4.8 \times 10^{-4} - 3.4 \times 10^{-5}

Let us make the exponent of second term as -4

\rightarrow 4.8 \times 10^{-4} - 0.34 \times 10^{-4}

Take 10^{-4} as common term,

\rightarrow 10^{-4} (4.8 - 0.34)

\rightarrow 4.46 \times 10^{-4}

Thus option C is correct

PLS HELP I’LL MARK BRAINLIEST!!! ALSO THE ANSWER IS NOT 118!
Ainat [17]

Answer:

B. 128

Step-by-step explanation:

so the sum of the interior angle is 180

180 - 76 is 104

since both sides are the same divide 104 with 2 to get 52

to find x = 180 - 52 = 128

Which value of x makes the inequality 2(8 – x) &lt; 4 true? A. x = –16 B. x = –9 C. x = 4 D. x = 10
myrzilka [38]

Answer:

10

Step-by-step explanation:

If we plug in any negative number as x, the result will always be greater than 4, which rules out answers A and B

lets try plugging in 4 as x to test answer C:

2(8-4)

2(4)= 8

8 is greater than 4, therefore C is wrong.

Lets try 10 as X (answer D):

2(8-10)

2(-2)

-4

We know that -4 is less than 4, therefore it makes the inequality true! :)
