Hey there! I'm happy to help!

Scientific notation is writing a number 1-10 multiplied by ten to a certain power. We see that we can write the number 1.5 to fit this.

We want to multiply by ten to a negative power as the decimal has been moved to the left. Let's count how many times we need to move the decimal over to get to 1.5.

If we count this, we have to move 7 places to get the decimal in the right spot. Therefore, to write this in scientific notation, we would write 1.5×10^-7.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Aliun [14]

Answer:

The perimeter of the p triangle = 38.4 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

The perimeter of a triangle z be = 48 cm

The triangle is dilated by a scale factor of 0.8

To determine

What is the perimeter of the triangle after it is dilated by a scale factor of 0.8?

  • As the scale factor < 1, it means the new perimeter will be reduced.

The new perimeter of the triangle p can be calculated by multiplying the perimeter of the original triangle z by 0.8

i.e.

Perimeter of triangle p = 48 × 0.8 = 38.4 cm

Therefore, the perimeter of the triangle p is = 38.4 cm

PLEASE HELP URGENT<br><br> Given \tan \theta =0.6, find the value of b.
xxTIMURxx [149]

Answer:

b=8.5cm

Step-by-step explanation:

tanx (this represents tan theta, it's just easier to type) is equal to 0.6 and since the tanx ratio is opp/adj, we know that opp/adj = 0.6

To find what b is (adjacent as it is adjacent to the angle being used and it is not the hypotenuse), we just have to rearrange.

0.6=5.1/adj

to solve for adj, we can switch 0.6 and adj. (This works because to get adj by itself on one side you would multiply it to the other side and then divide 0.6 from both sides --> simple algebra)

so then you have

adj=5.1/0.6

adj=8.5cm

(if you want to check your solution you can use pythagoeran theorem, a^2+b^2=c^2) and sub everything in and make sure all the numbers equal the right thing!
