Answer:

3.458×10¹⁷ kg

Step-by-step explanation:

(3.5×10⁻² kg/L) × (9.88×10¹⁸ L) = (3.5×9.88) × 10⁽⁻²⁺¹⁸⁾ kg

... = 34.58×10¹⁶ kg

... = 3.458×10¹⁷ kg

_____

<em>Comment on significant digits</em>

It would be appropriate to round the answer to 2 significant digits, matching the number of significant digits in the least-precise factor. Then the answer would be 3.5×10¹⁷ kg.

The bottom and top of a box are rectangles twice as long as they are wide. Find the volume of the box if it is four feet high an
Sav [38]

Let x = the width

then

2x = the length

:

The box dimensions: 2x by x by 4

Given the surface area:

2(2x*x) + 2(2x*4) + 2(x*4) = 220

:

4x^2 + 16x + 8x = 220


A quadratic equation:

4x^2 + 24x - 220 = 0

simplify, divide by 4

x^2 + 6x - 55 = 0

Factor

(x+11)(x-5) = 0

The positive solution is what we want here:

x = 5 ft is the width

then

2(5) = 10 ft is the length

:

Find the volume

10 * 5 * 4 = 200 cu/ft is the volume
