Answer: There are 35 spellers participated in the spelling bee.

Step-by-step explanation:

Since we have given that

Rank of Anish's placement at the highest = 11 th

Rank of Anish's placement at the lowest = 25 th

We need to find the number of spellers participated in the spelling bee.

So, Number of spellers participated in the spelling bee is given by

Highest + Lowest - 1

= 11 + 25 - 1

= 36 - 1

= 35

Hence, there are 35 spellers participated in the spelling bee.

Find the quotient of (11 ^ 18)/(11 ^ 3)
astraxan [27]

Answer:

The first choice, 11^{15}.

Step-by-step explanation:

The numerator, 11^{18}, is equivalent to eighteen "11" multiplied together:

11^{18} = \underbrace{11 \times 11 \times 11 \times 11 \times \cdots \times 11 \times 11}_{\text{$18$ in total}}.

On the other hand, the denominator, 11^{3}, is equivalent to three "11" multiplied with one another:

11^{3} = 11 \times 11 \times 11.

Dividing 11^{18} by 11^{3} would eliminate three "11" from the numerator:

\begin{aligned}& \frac{11^{18}}{11^{3}} \\ =\; & \frac{(11 \times 11 \times 11) \times \overbrace{11 \times \cdots \times 11}^{\text{$(18 - 3)$ in total}}}{(11 \times 11 \times 11)} \\ =\; & \overbrace{11 \times \cdots \times 11}^{\text{$15$ in total}} \\ =\; & 11^{15}\end{aligned}.

In general, dividing an expression by y^{b} (y \ne 0) is equivalent to multiplying that expression by y^{-b}.

For example, in this question, dividing 11^{18} by 11^{3} would be equivalent to multiplying 11^{18}\! by 11^{-3}. In other words:

\begin{aligned}& \frac{11^{18}}{11^{3}} \\ =\; & 11^{18} \times 11^{-3} \\ =\; & 11^{18 - 3} \\ =\; & 11^{15}\end{aligned}.

The distance from Neptune to Mars is 4.272\times 10^{9}4.272×10 9 kilometers. How long would it take a rocket, traveling at 4.8\
just olya [345]

The time taken is 8.9 * 10^4hrs




<h3>Distances</h3>

Given the following information:

  • Distance from Neptune to Mars = 4.272\times 10^{9}
  • Time is taken = 4.8\times 10^{4}km/hr

Get the time taken:

Time  = Distance/Speed

Time = \frac{4.272\times10^9}{4.8\times 10^4}

Time = 0.89 * 10^5

Time = 8.9 * 10^4hrs

Hence the time taken is 8.9 * 10^4hrs&#10;&#10;&#10;

The walking distance that is saved by cutting across the lot is
dezoksy [38]
Using the Pythagorean Theorem, we have x^2+(x+2)^2=51^2, and
x^2+ x^2+4x+4=2x^2+4x+4=51^2. After that, we subtract 51^2 from both sides to get 2x^2+4x-2597. Using the quadratic formula (x=(-b+-sqrt(b^2-4ac))/2a in ax^2+bx+c), we get around 35 for x. We did + instead of minus after b due to that it can't be negative! x+2=37, so you save 35+37-51=around 21 feet
