<u>Answer:</u>

10^4

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

We know that a biologist counted 10,000 migrating monarch butterflies and we are to write this number of butterflies as a power of 10.

Numbers such as 10, 100, 1000, 10000 can be expressed as a power of 10 denoted by 10^n where the power n is the number of zeros in that number.

So we can write 10,000 as:

10^4

Answer:

10000 = 10^{4}.

Step-by-step explanation:

If a number is given in terms of 10, 100, 1000, 10000 then the number can be represented as 10^{n}

where n is number of 0 present in the given number.

Therefore for a biologist who counted butterfly as 10,000 may be represented as 10^{n} where n = 4.

So 10000 = 10^{4}

Sliva [168]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

Although I,m not completely sure, I do know that a cone and cylinder will not have the same volume if the base is the same. To back that up a cone is 1/3 of a cylinder of the same diameter.

a chef is going to use a mixture of two brands of Italian dressing. The first brand contains 5% vinegar and the second Brian con
tankabanditka [31]

Answer:

  • 273 mL of 5%
  • 117 mL of 15%

Step-by-step explanation:

Let q represent the quantity of 15% dressing used. Then the amount of 5% dressing is (390 -q). The amount of vinegar in the mix is ...

  0.15q + 0.05(390 -q) = 0.08(390)

  0.10q = 31.2 -19.5 = 11.7 . . . . . . subtract 0.05(390) and simplify

  q = 117 . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 10

  390-q = 273

The chef should use 273 mL of the first brand (5% vinegar) and 117 mL of the second brand (15% vinegar).

__

<em>Additional comment</em>

You may have noticed that the value of q is (0.08 -0.05)/(0.10 -0.05)×390. The fraction of the mix that is the highest contributor is the ratio of the difference between the mix value and least contributor, divided by the difference between the contributors: (8-5)/(15-5) = 3/10, the fraction that is 15% vinegar. This is the generic solution to mixture problems.
