Answer:

C. 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, …

Step-by-step explanation:

Powers of 10 are 10^x, where x is an integer.  Any number that starts with 1 and has zeros after it is a power of 10.

Answer:

C. 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, …

Step-by-step explanation:

In Fermi’s method for estimating large numbers, he uses a power of 10 to estimate the upper and lower bound. Therefore, 10, 100, 1,000, 10,000, … is the answer choice that contains powers of 10. For instance if it were 10^2, you would add 2 zeros, making it 100.

A guidebook says this tower is 50m tall.Is that correct? given deegrees are 27° and 46°<br>​
inysia [295]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

   yes

Step-by-step explanation:

The tower is about 50.1 meters tall. The guidebook is correct.

__

The distance from the base of the tower to the angle vertex is ...

  d1 = h/tan(46°)

  d2 = d1 +50 = h/tan(27°)

Then the height of the tower is ...

  h/tan(46°) +50 = h/tan(27°)

  50 = h(cot(27°) - cot(46°))

  h = 50/(cot(27°) -cot(46°)) ≈ 50/(1.96261 -0.96569) ≈ 50/0.99692

  h ≈ 50.1544 . . . meters

The tower is more than 50 meters high.

What is m angle M? thx

Law of Sines can help with this problem. Law of Sines can help find a missing angle or side if given two sides with respective opposite angles or two angles with respective sides. The formula for Law of Sines is sin(A)/a = sin(B)/b. A and B are the angles and a and b are the sides opposite the angles. Hopefully, the picture above helps you visualize everything.

Anyways, we know two sides and one angle, so Law of Sines is possible to use. The side opposite the right angle is 11. So, we have sin(90)/11. The other angle, we're looking for but we do know the side. The side opposite of angle M is 5. So, we have sin(M)/5. The Law of Sines formula tells us that Sin(A)/a = Sin(B)/b = Sin(C)/c but we don't need all the angles but just angle M. So we're going to just use Sin(A)/a = Sin(B)/b. We have already set up the equations so plug them in.
Sin(90)/11 = Sin(M)/5. Cross multiplication will get 5 × Sin(90) = Sin(M) × 11.

Sin(90) = 1. So, we get 1 × 5 and get after simplifying, 5 = Sin(M) × 11. We divide both sides by 11 to get Sin(M) by itself.

5/11 = Sin(M). Now we run into a problem. How do we get the angle M? We do the inverse sin or sin^-1 key if you're using a calculator. So, (5/11)sin^-1 = M. Our final answer is angle M = 27.03569... Hope this helped!



Side Notes: Make sure if you're using a calculator that you're in degrees and NOT radians unless the question calls for radians. Also, if you wanted to find all the angles of the triangle then once you find M, you could add that to the 90 degree angle and then subtract that from 180. You will find the other angle since you know two of them and there are only three of them that have to add to 180 degrees. I just like triangles, ;-) Good luck!

A college finds that of the 861 students taking math, 525 students are business majors and 202 students are taking math and are
3241004551 [841]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

202 students taking math and are business majors

only math, would be (861 - 202) = 659

only business majors, would be (525 - 202) = 323

so there are (659 + 323) = 982 that are math or business majors
