The answer is 1.53x10^10 dollars.

You get this answer by multiplying the total amount of goods in tons (900,000) by the average value of the goods ($17,000 per ton) to get your answer of 1.53x10^10 dollars.

The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:

1.53x10^10 dollars

Explanation:

We first write 9.0x10^5 in standard form.  The exponent of the power of 10, 5, tells us to move the decimal point 5 places.  Since it is positive, we move the decimal to the right (to make the number larger).  This gives us 900000 tons.

Each ton is worth $17,000.  This gives us a total value of

900000(17000) = 15300000000.

Our answer needs to be written in scientific notation.  This means we want the decimal after the first non-zero digit in the number; it goes behind the 1.  This makes 1.53.  To move the decimal here, we must move it 10 places; this gives us the answer of

1.53x10^10

Find the value of x. If​ necessary, write your answer in the simplest radical form.
Paul [167]

Answer:

x = 4\sqrt{5}

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other 2 sides, that is

x² + 1² = 9²

x² + 1 = 81 ( subtract 1 from both sides )

x² = 80 ( take square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{80} = \sqrt{16(5)} = \sqrt{16} × \sqrt{5} = 4\sqrt{5}
