Answer: 2.5 \times 10^{-9}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The width of a DNA molecule = 2.5 nanometers.

A nanometer = 0.000000001 meter.

In scientific notation it will be

A nanometer = =\dfrac{1}{1000000000}=10^{-9} meter

⇒ 2.5 nanometers= 2.5 \times 10^{-9} meters

Therefore , the width of a DNA molecule =2.5 \times 10^{-9}

We use scientific notation to express a very big or a very small number in the product of a decimal  ( between 1 and 10) and powers of ten.

We might choose to write a recursive formula rather than an explicit formula to define a sequence because (D) the sequence is strictly geometric.

<h3>What is a sequence?</h3>
  • A sequence in mathematics is an enumerated collection of items in which repetitions are permitted and order is important. It, like a set, has members (also called elements, or terms).
  • The length of the series is defined as the number of items (which could be infinite).
  • Unlike a set, the same components can appear numerous times in a sequence at different points, and the order does important.
  • Formally, a sequence can be defined as a function from natural numbers (the sequence's places) to the elements at each point.
  • The concept of a sequence can be expanded to include an indexed family, which is defined as a function from an index set that may or may not contain integers to another set of elements.

Recursive formulas are commonly used to compute the nth term of a sequence, where a(n) is the sum of all the preceding values.

Using its position, explicit formulas can compute a(n).

Therefore, we might choose to write a recursive formula rather than an explicit formula to define a sequence because (D) the sequence is strictly geometric.

What is the value for y?<br> Enter your answer in the box.
lapo4ka [179]

Answer:

y = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of the angles in a triangle add to 180 degrees

50 + 2x+ 5y + 10 = 180

We know that 2x = 50 since they are the base angles of sides that have the same length, they must be the same

50 + 50 + 5y+10 =180

Combine like terms

110 + 5y =180

Subtract 110 from each side

110+5y-110 = 180-110

5y = 70

Divide each side by 5

5y/5 =70/5

y = 14
