We simply divide the Mass of Neutron by Mass of electron


=  2 × 10⁻²⁴ / (9 × 10⁻²⁸)

=  (2/9) × 10⁻²⁴ ⁻ ⁻²⁸

=  (2/9) × 10⁻²⁴ ⁺ ²⁸

≈ 0.2222... × 10²⁸ ⁻ ²⁴

≈ 0.2222  × 10⁴

≈ 2222    

This is approximately 2000 times.

So:

The mass of a neutron is approximately 2,000 times the mass of an electron

The first option. I hope this explains it.

Of the $2400 Mr Calvin earned, he spent 3/8 on food, 1/3 on taxes and 1/6 on other expenses. Find out how much all this is in do
sattari [20]

Answer: $300

Step-by-step explanation:

Mr. Calvin earned  \$2400

He spent  \frac{3}{8} on food i.e.

\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{8}\times 2400=\$900

\dfrac{1}{3}\quad \text{on taxes i.e.}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{3}\times 2400=\$800

\dfrac{1}{6}\ \text{on other expenses i.e.}\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{1}{6}\times 2400=\$400

Remaining money = 2400-900-800-400=\$300

So, he saved $300 after expenses

What is an absolute value? What does it do? When would we need to use an absolute value
Nana76 [90]
Absolute Value Absolute Value means ...

... only how far a number is from zero:

<span> <span><span> </span> <span> <span> "6" is 6 away from zero,
and "−6" is also 6 away from zero. So the absolute value of 6 is 6,
and the absolute value of −6 is also 6 </span> </span> </span></span>

More Examples:

<span><span>The absolute value of −9 is 9</span><span>The absolute value of 3 is 3</span><span>The absolute value of 0 is 0</span><span>The absolute value of −156 is 156</span></span> No Negatives!

So in practice "absolute value" means to remove any negative sign in front of a number, and to think of all numbers as positive (or zero).

Absolute Value Symbol

To show that we want the absolute value of something, we put "|" marks either side (they are called "bars" and are found on the right side of a keyboard), like these examples:

<span> <span><span> |−5| = 5 |7| = 7 </span> </span></span> Sometimes absolute value is also written as "abs()", so abs(−1) = 1 is the same as <span>|−1| = 1</span>

At an university 70% of the students who attend stay on campus. If 1,380 of the students who attend live off campus, what is the
Alborosie

Answer:

4600

Step-by-step explanation:

We can write a proportion to find the total amount who attend university using the information given. A proportion is two equivalent ratios set equal to each other. Since 70% live on campus, then 30% live off campus and we are told that number is 1,380.

\frac{30}{100}=\frac{1380}{y}

We will cross multiply the numerator of one ratio with denominator of the other. And then solve for y.

30y=100(1380)

30y=138000

y=4600.

There are 4600 students who attend the university.
