Answer:

The number is 0.000358 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientists found that the body of a male consists of $3.58 \times 10^{-4}$ lbs of zinc.

This is a scientific way of writing a number.

For, example 0.0023, a number in normal or standard notation can be scientifically written as $2.3 \times 10^{- 3}$ .

So, in our case, the number is $3.58 \times 10^{-4}$ lbs and we have to write this number in standard notation.

Then the number is 0.000358 lbs. (Answer)

Calculate the unit rate: write your answer as a decimal 1/2 mile in ever 1/3 hour

Alexandra [31]

Answer:

$unit \: rate = \frac{distance}{time}$

unit rate is similar to speed / velocity:

$unit \: rate = \frac{ (\frac{1}{2} )}{ (\frac{1}{3})} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{2} \div \frac{1}{3} \\ \\ = \frac{1}{2} \times \frac{3}{1} \\ \\ = > { \boxed{ \boxed{unit \: rate = \frac{3}{2} \: miles \: per \: hour}}}$

[unit rate must have units including per <time> ]

You multiply two integers. You increase one of them by 1 and decrease the other

snow_tiger [21]

Integers are numbers without decimals

The integers could you have multiplied are 9 and 2

Let the numbers be x and y

So, we have:

$\mathbf{x \times y}$

Increase x by 1 and reduce y by 1.

So, we have

$\mathbf{(x +1) \times (y -1) = 6 + xy }$

Open brackets

$\mathbf{xy -x + y - 1 = 6 + xy}$

Subtract xy from both sides

$\mathbf{ -x + y - 1 = 6}$

Collect like terms

$\mathbf{ -x + y = 6 + 1}$

$\mathbf{ -x + y = 7}$

Rewrite as:

$\mathbf{ y -x= 7}$

The above means that, the difference between the integers is 7.

There are several integers that fit the above description;

One possibility is: 9 and 2
