Answer:

2.09 × 10¹⁰ pounds

Step-by-step explanation:

The American chemical industry produces more than 9.5 million metric tons of sodium carbonate.

in this problem we have to calculate the amount in pounds of sodium carbonate are produced annually.

so we will convert the amount of 9.5 million metric tons to pounds.

Since in  1 metric ton = 2204.62 pounds

Hence,  9,500,000 metric ton = 2204.62 × 9,500,000

                                                 = 20943890000 pounds

                                                 = 2.09 × 10¹⁰ pounds

2.09 × 10¹⁰ pounds of sodium carbonate are produced annually.

A rectangle has two different side lengths: One is (4p-5) inches. The other is (3p+2) inches. Find the perimeter of the rectangl
Anika [276]

The perimeter of rectangle is 14p-6.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

One side of rectangle = 4p-5  inches

Length of other side = 3p+2 inches

Perimeter of rectangle = 2( Length of one side + Length of other side)

Perimeter = 2(4p-5+3p+2)\\Perimeter = 2(7p-3)\\Perimeter = 14p-6

The perimeter of rectangle is 14p-6.

Which of the following points are more than 5 units from the point P(−2, −2)? Select all that apply. A A (2, 1) B B (4, −1) C C
netineya [11]

The distance between any 2 points P(a,b) and Q(c,d) in the coordinate plane, is given by the formula:<span>

<span> |PQ|= \sqrt{ (a-c)^{2} + (b-d)^{2}}</span></span>


Using this formula we calculate the distances |PA|, |PB|, |PC|, |PD| and |PE| and compare to 5.


|PA|= \sqrt{ (-2-2)^{2} + (-2-1)^{2}}= \sqrt{16+9}= \sqrt{25}=5

|PB|= \sqrt{ (-2-4)^{2} + (-2+1)^{2}}= \sqrt{36+1}= \sqrt{37} \approx 6

|PC|= \sqrt{ (-2-2)^{2} + (-2+3)^{2}}= \sqrt{16+1}= \sqrt{17}\approx4

|PD|= \sqrt{ (-2+6)^{2} + (-2+6)^{2}}= \sqrt{16+16}= \sqrt{32}\ \textgreater \  \sqrt{25}=5

|PE|= \sqrt{ (-2+5)^{2} + (-2-1)^{2}}= \sqrt{9+9}= \sqrt{16}=4


Answer: B and D

Deffense [45]
For the answer to the question above asking to e<span>xplain why the events "getting a black marble" and "getting a red marble" are mutually exclusive.
</span>A marble can have only one color, so you cannot choose a marble that is both black and red. Therefore the events are mutually exclusive (cannot happen simultaneously)
