Since multiplication is commutative, you can change the order of the factors:

5.1 \times 10^3 \cdot 3.2 \times 10^3 = 5.1 \cdot 3.2 \times 10^3 \cdot 10^3

So, the numeric parti is simply

5.1 \cdot 3.2 = 16.32

For the powers of ten, use the rule a^b\cdot a^c=a^{b+c} to write

10^3 \cdot 10^3 = 10^{3+3} = 10^6

So, the answer is

16.32 \times 10^6

To write the answer is proper scientific notation, you can write it as

1.623 \times 10^7

So, answers A and B represent the same number, and they are both correct. If you need the answer to be written in rigorous scientific notation, then answer is B.

(5.1\cdot10^3)\cdot(3.2\cdot10^3)=5.1\cdot10^3\cdot3.2\cdot10^3\\\\\text{use commutative property}\ a \cdot b=b\cdot a\\\\=5.1\cdot3.2\cdot10^3\cdot10^3\\\\\text{use associative property}\ (a\cdot b)\cdot c=a\cdot(b\cdot c)\\\\=(5.1\cdot3.2)\cdot(10^3\cdot10^3)\\\\\text{use}\ a^n\cdot a^m=a^{n+m}\\\\=16.32\cdot10^{3+3}=\boxed{16.32\cdot10^6}\to\boxed{A.}

Hello!

Let’s do it step-by-step, shall we? Don’t worry! These problems can be a bit tricky but you’ll get it in no time! It’s really simple.

So, we have (-7)(-5)

This means that the problem will be multiplied because of the parentheses. They substitute the multiplication sign.

So, we have -7 (multiplied by) -5= 35

So your answer would be 35. Hope this helps :) and good luck!

1) multiply price per pound by number of pounds.

1.73/lb * 2.6 pounds= $4.498= $4.50

ANSWER: C) $4.50


2) set up a proportion. 494 is what % out of 520 as x is what out of 100.

$494/$520= x/100
cross multiply
(494*100)= (520*x)
49400= 520x
divide both sides by 520
95%= x

ANSWER: D) 95%

Hope this helps! :)

Create a system of linear equations that has one solution. Solve the system using substitution to prove your
bezimeni [28]

Answer:

y = -2x + 3

y = -1/2x + 5

Step-by-step explanation:

  • So the best way to solve is to come up with two slopes, I'd prefer 2 perpendicular slopes because perpendicular lines only cross once hence one solution guaranteed
  • so say we choose a slopeA = 2 and slopeB = -1/2, the slopes are perpendicular only if when you multiply them you get -1
  • then we use the slope intercept form of an equation y = mx + b
  • we make up two equations y = -2x + b and y = -1/2x + b , now we can just make up number for b so the two equations are
  • y = -2x + 3
  • y = -1/2x + 5
  • Then we solve them by substituting for y so
  • -1/2x + 5 = -2x + 3 and x = -4/3
  • and then we put this to get y in either equation
  • y = -2(-4/3) + 3
  • y = 17/3
  • So the equations work
