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.

_____

MArishka [77]

Answer:

  • x = 80°
  • y = 130°

Step-by-step explanation:

The interior is a parallelogram when adjacent angles are supplementary. This requires ...

  (x -30)° + (x +50)° = 180°

  2x + 20 = 180 . . . . . . . . . . . collect terms, divide by °

  2x = 160 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . subtract 20

  x = 80 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . divide by 2

Then the angle x+50 is ...

  (x +50)° = (80 +50)° = 130°

This is also the measure of the angle marked y.

For the lines to be parallel, x = 80, y = 130°.

5x-4y=-18 what is the three point on a graph for this equation
Tju [1.3M]
(1)Draw the "y" line . It goes up and down. 
<span>Make sure to mark the centimeters or quarter inches with little nobs. </span>
<span>Start at -20 and go to 10 </span>
<span>(2)Draw the "x" line. it goes side to side. </span>
<span>place the x line at the zero point of the y line. I'm sure you will see your paper looks like the letter "t". Perfectly at a right angle. you could use the corner of a book to square it. </span>

<span>Now for the maths 5x - 4y = -18. The most important symbol here is the "=" sign. </span>
<span>(3) rearrange the equation so that y is on one side of "=" and x is on the other side. </span>
<span>Remember if you add 10 to one side the of "=" , then for it to be equal, add 10 to the other. side also </span>
<span>so add 4y to both sides. add 18 to both sides . divide the whole of each side by 4. </span>
<span>5x - 4y + 4y + 18 = -18 + 4y + 18 </span>
<span>1.25x + 4.5 = y </span>
<span>(4) now write down on a peace of scrap paper, x=1, y= 5.75, x=2 y= ___ , x=3 y= ___ </span>
<span>(5) remember BEDMAS, and put 1 in the place of x and calculate what y is . </span>
<span>(6) get your ruler , line up x = 1 (ruler is going up and down) and draw a spot on what y = . Get two rulers if you must. </span>
<span>(7) </span>
<span>hey presto, you got your three points on a graph.</span>
