When working with very large or very small numbers, scientists, mathematicians, and engineers use scientific notation to express these quantities. Scientific notation is a mathematical abbreviation, based on the idea that it is easier to read an exponent than to count many zeros in a number. Very large or very small numbers need less space when written in scientific notation because the position values are expressed as powers of 10. Calculations with long numbers are easier to do when using scientific notation

Answer:

$84\text{ in}^2$ .

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that Mrs. Chen's students are making and decorating gift boxes for a nursing home. The boxes are 7 inches wide, 7 inches long, and 7 inches high. We are asked to find the amount of cardboard that is needed for each box.

We will use surface area of cuboid formula to solve our given problem.

$SA=2(lw+lh+hw)$ , where,

l = Length,

w = Width,

h = Height

$SA=2(7\text{ in}\cdot7\text{ in} +7\text{ in}\cdot7\text{ in}+7\text{ in}\cdot7\text{ in})$

$SA=2(14\text{ in}^2+14\text{ in}^2+14\text{ in}^2)$

$SA=2(42\text{ in}^2)$

$SA=84\text{ in}^2$

Therefore, Mrs Chen needs 84 square inches of cardboard.

triangle abc is shown in the diagram. the lengths of the sides are in terms of the variable n, where n>4. Complete the inequa

BaLLatris [955]

If n>4, then n+3<2n<3n-2 (n+3<2n is true because this unequality is equivalent to 3<n and 2n<3n-2 is also true because this unequality is equivalent to 2<n). Hence, the side AC is the smallest one and the side AB is the biggest one.
The largest side is opposite the largest angle, the medium side is opposite the medium angle and the smallest side is opposite the smallest angle.

Then, m∠B<m∠A<m∠C.
Answer: m∠B<m∠A<m∠C.
