3 0

Answer:The purpose of scientific notation is for scientists to write very large, or very small, numbers with ease.

Calculating scientific notation for a positive integer is simple, as it always follows this notation:

a x 10b

Follow the steps below to see how 12,500 is written in scientific notation.

Step 1

To find a, take the number and move a decimal place to the right one position.

Original Number: 12,500

New Number: 1.2500

Step 2

Now, to find b, count how many places to the right of the decimal.

New Number: 1 . 2 5 0 0

Decimal Count: 1 2 3 4

There are 4 places to the right of the decimal place.

Step 3

Building upon what we know above, we can now reconstruct the number into scientific notation.

Remember, the notation is: a x 10b

a = 1.25 (Please notice any zeroes on the end have been removed)

b = 4

Now the whole thing:

1.25 x 104

Step 4

Check your work:

104 = 10,000 x 1.25 = 12,500

The length of the base of an isosceles triangle is x. The length of a leg is 2x-6. The perimeter of the triangle is 38. Find X
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

x = 10

Step-by-step explanation:

Perimeter of a triangle = the sum of the three sides.    

In an isosceles the legs are equal (2x - 6) and the base is x

Perimeter = (x) + (2x - 6) + (2x - 6)

          38  = 5x - 12

        38 + 12 = 5x

            50 =   5x

              \frac{50}{5} = \frac{5x}{5}

               10 = x

What is the relationship between a rotation and a reflection? Sketch a diagram that supports your explanation.
SSSSS [86.1K]

Answer with Step-by-step explanation:

Relationship between rotation and reflection:

In reflection, the pre-image gets flips across the same line.

whereas in rotation, the pre-image get spin around a point.

Rotations can be represented as two reflections i.e. the composition of reflections over two intersecting lines is always equal to rotation of that object.

In rotation, the object will get turned, this is turning some degree either clockwise or anti-clockwise.

Hence, rotation requires spinning and reflection requires flipping.
