The required value is $2\times10^9$

Step-by-step explanation:

Weight of ants = $4\times10^{-3}$

Weight of elephant= $8\times10^6$

We need to find, the total weight of about how many ants equals to the weight of an oversized elephant.

The equation given is:

$4\times10^{-3} \times a = 8\times10^6$

We need to find a:

Solving:

$4\times10^{-3} \times a = 8\times10^6\\a=\frac{8\times10^6}{4\times10^{-3}}\\if \,\,10^a/10^-b \,\,then\,\, 10^{a+b}\\a=2\times10^{6+3} \\a=2\times10^9$

So, the required value is $2\times10^9$

Triangle TRS is similar to triangle TMN. Angle T = 40°, angle R = 60°, and angle S = 80° . What is the measure of angle M

Andre45 [30]

Answer:

60degrees

Step-by-step explanation:

For similar triangles, the angles of their angles are equal to matter the size.

Hence if triangle TRS is similar to triangle TMN, then;

<R = <M and <S = <N

Given that;

<T = 40 degrees

<R = 60degrees

<S = 80 degrees

Since <R = <M, then <M = 60degrees

What are the solutions of x^2+5x=2? Check all that apply

astraxan [27]

X^2+5x=2
you then solve by completing the square using the formula (b/2)^2 in order to create the new term. Solve for x by using this term to complete the square.
Your answer is then
x=-5/2+-√33/2

Triangle JKL is dilated from the origin at a scale factor of 10 to create triangle J′K′L′.Select the option that completes the s

Aneli [31]

Given: Triangle JKL is dilated from the origin at a scale factor of 10 to create triangle J′K′L′.

Required: Correct option that complete the statement.

Explanation:

Now, triangle is dilated from the origin at a scale factor of 10.

So, the sides will become larger, but angles will remain the same.

Hence, the triangles will be similar as sides will be in proption (SSS rule).

So, The triangles are similar because their corresponding sides are proptional and their corresponding angles are congurent.
