Hey there!

When we put a number in scientific notation, we want the first number to be at least 1 and less than 10. There must be a digit from 1-9 in the ones place.

With the number 0.000015, we can move the decimal place 5 places to the right and we have 1.5, which is more than one and less than ten.

Because we moved the decimal place 5 places to the right, 1.5 is multiplied by 10 to the power of -5.

The 5 is the number of places the decimal is moved, and the negative sign is because we moved it to the right.

10^(-5) is the same as 0.00001, just for context.

So, 0.000015 meters in scientific notation is 1.5 x 10^(5) meters.

Hope this helps!

The answer is D because the whole circle is 369 degrees the big arc is 202 so 360- 202 is 158 then you have an inscribed angle of 35 multiply it by two to find the arc of that so it would be 70 so subtract 158-70=88 and you can see that that section of 88 is part of an inscribed angle so divide by two to get the answer of 44

The missing reason is (d) Add the fractions together on the right side of the equation

<h3>How to complete the missing reason?</h3>

From the statements, we have the following equation:

x^2 + b/a x + (b/2a)^2 = -4ac/4a^2 + b^2/4a^2

Next, we add the fractions on the right-hand side of the equation.

This gives

x^2 + b/a x + (b/2a)^2 = [-4ac + b^2]/4a^2

The above means that the last statement is gotten by adding the fractions on the right-hand side of the equation.

Hence, the missing reason is (d) Add the fractions together on the right side of the equation

A cellphone company charges $60 for a cellphone and a monthly rate to use the phone.Regina will pay $1,140 for a 24-month cellph

Alinara [238K]

The monthly rate is $45 for this cellphone plan.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

Amount charged for cell phone = $60

Amount paid by Regina for 24 month plan = $1140

Number of months = 24

Let,

m be the monthly rate for cellphone plan

Number of months * Monthly rate + cellphone charges = Amount paid

$24m+60=1140\\24m=1140-60\\24m=1080$

Dividing both sides by 24

$\frac{24m}{24}=\frac{1080}{24}\\m=45$

The monthly rate is $45 for this cellphone plan.

Sketch the curve represented by the parametric equations (indicate the orientation of the curve), and write the corresponding re

raketka [301]

Answer:

(See explanation below for further details).

Step-by-step explanation:

Let be a parametric curve represented by $x = 3\cdot t - 5$ and $y = 5\cdot t + 1$ , where $t$ is the parametric variable.

The curve is represented graphically with the help of a graphing tool, whose outcome is included in the image attached below. The corresponding rectangular equation is found by eliminating t of each equation.

$t = \frac{x+5}{3}$ and $t = \frac{y-1}{5}$
