Brian’s school locker has a three-digit combination lock that can be set using the numbers 5 to 9 (including 5 and 9), without r
andreev551 [17]
The possible digits are: 5, 6, 7, 8 and 9. Let's mark the case when the locker code begins with a prime number as A and the case when <span>the locker code is an odd number as B. We have 5 different digits in total, 2 of which are prime (5 and 7).

First propability:
</span>P_A=\frac{2}{5}=40\%
<span>
By knowing that digits don't repeat we can say that code is an odd number in case it ends with 5, 7 or 9 (three of five digits).

Second probability:
</span>P_B=\frac{3}{5}=60\%

I'm assuming you're looking to find the expanded form of the number?

This number is in scientific notation. The easiest way to convert it to a normal number is to move the decimal place 14 to the right. I've attached a picture showing how to do this. You should get 630,000,000,000,000

There's a faster way to do this - notice that you need to move the decimal 14 to the right, and there's one number already after the decimal place. Therefore, 13 places will be filled with zeros. So, just write out 63 and add 13 zeros.

For more general help on scientific notation, check out these videos: https://www.khanacademy.org/math/pre-algebra/pre-algebra-exponents-radicals/pre-algebra-scientific-notation/v/scientific-notation-old

Hope that helps! Feel free to message me or leave a comment if I can clarify anything :)

Which of the following is the correct equation for the distance formula for the points (x1, y1) and (x2,y2)?
svp [43]

Answer:

  A. D=sqrt( (x2-x1)^2+(y2-y1)^2 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance between two points is the root of the sum of the squares of the differences in their corresponding coordinates. The equation of choice A is the usual formulation.

<em>Comment on answer choices</em>

Because the square of a number is the same as the square of its opposite, the formula in choice D is also correct.
