Answer:

The American consumed 3.205\times 10^8 gallons of gasoline.

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following information in the question:

Gasoline consumed by the Americans = 320,500,000 gallons

We have to convert this number into scientific notation.

  • Scientific notation is a method  of writing very large or very small numbers.
  • A number is written in scientific notation when a number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by a power of 10.

The above number can be written in scientific notation in the following manner:

320,500,000 = 3.205\times 10^8

Hence, the American consumed 3.205\times 10^8 gallons of gasoline.

Explain how you can find the missing number in 3 4/5 divided by ( blank) equals 2 5/7.
skad [1K]
First make fractions.
2 5/7 = 19/7
3 4/5 = 19/5

19/7*x=19/5
Multiply 7 to other side (7*19/5=133/5)
Multiply 5 to other side (5*19=95)
95x=133
133 divided by 95 yields 1.4

The answer is 1.4

Write an equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = 1/2
atroni [7]

Answer:

the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = 1/2x + 3 and passes through the point (10, -5)

= -5 = -2x + 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Write an equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = 1/2x + 3 and passes through the point (10, -5).

Using the slope intercept equation,

y = mx +c

m = slope = 1/2

For two lines to be perpendicular, the product of their slopes is -1

Let the slope of the other line be m2

m1×m2 =-1

1/2×m2 = -1

m2 = -1/(1/2) = -2

Slope of line = -2

For points (10, -5), x = 10, y =-5

-5 = -2× 10 +c

-5 = -20+ c

c = -5+20= 15

the equation of the line that is perpendicular to y = 1/2x + 3 and passes through the point (10, -5)

-5 = -2x + 15

5/8 - 3/10 <br> A. 13/40 <br> B. 1/20 <br> C. 1/4<br> D. 1/5
densk [106]

5/8 - 3/10

Find the common denominator:

Multiples of 8:  8, 16, 24, 32, 40 (8 x 5 = 40)

Multiples of 10: 10, 20, 30, 40  (10 x 4 = 40)


5/8 = 5*5 / 8*5 = 25/40

3/10 = 3*4 / 10 *4 = 12/40


Now you have 25/40 - 12/40

25 -12 = 13

Answer = 13/40


The answer is A.

A coin is tossed and a number cube is rolled. What is the probability that the coin shows heads and the number cube shows 5? a.
Inessa [10]

Answer:

1/12

Step-by-step explanation:

P( coin = heads) = number of heads / total = 1/2

P( cube = 5) = number of 5's / total =1/6

P( heads, 5) =1/2 * 1/6 = 1/12
