Your mistake was in this part  9 x 1/100 . After the decimal point the place value starts with tenths so you should write 9 x 1/10 .

Place values

Before the decimal point

3 ones = 3 x 1

0 tens = 0 x 10

1 hundreds = 1 x 100

After the decimal point

9 tenths = 9 x 1/10

0 hundredths = 0 x 1/100

3 thousandths= 3 x 1/1000

1 x 100 + 0 x 10 + 3 x 1 + 9 x 1/10 + 0 x 1/100 + 3 x 1/1000

  100     +    0     +   3    +    0.9      +     0        +    0.003

           100         + 3      +          0.9                +     0.003 =  103.903

Answer:

103.903=100+3\times1+9\times \frac{1}{10}+3\times \frac{1}{1000}    

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Alex wrote 103.903 in expanded form as

100+3\times1+9\times \frac{1}{100}+3\times \frac{1}{1000}

To find : Explain his mistake then tell how to correct it ?

Solution :

The Alex expansion of the number is not correct as 9 is at tenths place so 9 is multiply by 1 by 10 not 1 by 100.

The correct expanded form of the number 103.903 is

103.903=1\times 100+0\times 10+3\times1+9\times \frac{1}{10}+0\times \frac{1}{100}+3\times \frac{1}{1000}

or 103.903=100+3\times1+9\times \frac{1}{10}+3\times \frac{1}{1000}

The lateral area of a cone is 400 pi cm squared. The radius is 10 cm. Find the slant height to the nearest tenth.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]

Answer:

Option A. 40\ cm

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The lateral area of a cone is equal to

LA=\pi rl

we have

LA=400\pi \ cm^{2}

r=10\ cm

substitute and solve for l (slant height)

400\pi=\pi (10)l

simplify

400=(10)l

l=400/10=40\ cm

20 points !!! -3/8x-20+2x&gt;6
Semenov [28]

Answer:

x > 16

Step-by-step explanation:

- \frac{3}{8} x -20+2x>6

Add 20 to both sides:

-  \frac{3}{8} x + 2x > 26

Multiply 8 on both sides:

- 3x + 16x > 208

13x > 208

Divide by 13 on both sides:

x > 16
