The answer is: 
___________________________________________
   " 2.3 * 10^(19) "  kg  {dissolved salt in the Pacific Ocean} .
__________________________________________________
Explanation:
_____________________________
3.5 * 10⁻² * 6.6 * 10⁽²⁰⁾  = ? kg dissolved salt in the Pacific Ocean.
______________________________________________________
→ 3.5 * 10⁻² * 6.6 * 10⁽²⁰⁾  = 3.5 * 6.6 * 10⁻² * 10²⁰⁾ ;
___________________________________________
Note the following property of exponents:
___________________________________________
xᵃ * xᵇ = x⁽ᵃ⁺ᵇ⁾ ;  so;  10⁻² * 10²⁰ = 10⁽⁻² ⁺ ²⁰⁾ = 10⁽ ¹⁸ ⁾ ;

→ So; we can rewrite our expression as:
___________________________________________
  3.5 * 6.6 * 10⁽ ¹⁸ ⁾ ;

→ Note: 3.5 * 6.6 = 23.1 ---> Round to 2 (two) significant figures:  23 ;

Answer:  23 * 10⁽ ¹⁸ ⁾ ;  to write in scientific notation; write the "whole number" as: "2.3" (a single digit, whole number integer, followed by a decimal", and adjust the exponent following the "10" accordingly, to make the value equal; and we have:
__________________________________________________ 
   " 2.3 * 10^(19) "  kg {dissolved salt in the Pacific Ocean} .

The highway mileage m in miles per gallon for a compact car is approximated by m(s) = -0.025s^2 + 2.45s - 30, where s is the spe
Over [174]
The maximum mileage per gallon for the compact car is determined by taking the first derivative of the given equation and equate to zero. The differentiated form is m's = -0.05 s + 2.45 = 0; s is equal to 49 seconds. substituting this s, m is equal to 30.025 miles/gallon.

3 times a number x, subtracted from 18, is less than−90.
Leokris [45]
3x-18 is less than -90
First, you add 18 to both sides of the inequality (getting 3x is less than -72).  Then you divide by 3 on both sides giving you your answer x is less than -24
