Answer:

<h3>C. Scientific Notation</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the number in question is greater than or equal to 1 but less than

10, we can choose any number between 1 and 10, lets take 3 for example.

If we take the product of 3 and an integer power of 10 number without regard to its sign, this can be expressed mathematically as shown;

$3 * 10^{-5}$ where the power of 10 is -5. Note that any real number can be used as the power since we are not regarding the sign (Here we used -5). The expression formed according to the expression in question is a SCIENTIFIC NOTATION i.e $3 * 10^{-5}$ gives us a scientific notation.

<em>Scientific notation is a means by which we represent very large or small numbers that are difficult to represent using a decimal notation</em>

On a floor plan drawn at a scale of 1:100, the area of a rectangular room is 30

Troyanec [42]

Assume that the dimensions of the room in the plan are a (width ) by b (length),

such that a*b=30.

Since the scale is 1:100, a represents 100a, and b represents 100b.

So the actual dimensions are 100a by 100b.

The area is 100a*100b=a*b*10,000=30*10,000=300,000 (square units)

Answer: 300,000 (square units)

How would you find the volume of the solid in the figure shown above?

Natasha_Volkova [10]

The answer is D and it's pretty simple to do:

$V_{1}=a*b*c\\
V_{2}= \pi r^{2} h\\
V_{3}= \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2}h$

21 Last year Chelsea and Sonya took 236 pictures during Thanksgiving. This year Chelsea and Sonya each took the same amount of p

Leokris [45]

Let 'c' represent the number of pictures Chelsea took.

Let 's' represent the number of pictures Sonya took.

For last year's Thanksgiving, c + s = 236

For this year's Thanksgiving, let 'x' represent the number of photos taken in total. x = c + s, where c and s are two integers that are the same (c = s).

And we know that for both years, c + s + x = 500.

As we know that c + s is already 236 from last year, we can remove c + s from the equation in bold and replace it with 236 instead.

236 + x = 500.

Now we have to isolate the x term.

x = 500 - 236

x = 264.

We know that x = c + s, where c and s are the same, so we can just use one of the variables and double it (so you either get 2c or 2s - it doesn't matter which one you pick because they're both the same).

2c = 264

c = 132

c = s

s = 132.

Both took 132 pictures this year.
