Answer:
- 100
- 489.190
- 10,000
- 48,919,000
Step-by-step explanation:
Each factor of 10 in the divisor causes the decimal point to move 1 place to the left.
a) The decimal point has moved 2 places to the left. The divisor is 10^2 = 100.
b) The divisor is 10^3, so the decimal point will move 3 places to the left.
489.190
c) The decimal point has moved 4 places to the left, so the divisor is 10^4 = 10,000.
d) The divisor is 10^5, so the decimal point in the quotient if 5 places to the left of where it is in the dividend. Moving the quotient's decimal point 5 places to the right gives ...

<em>Additional comment</em>
An exponent signifies repeated multiplication. Here, we're concerned with repeatedly multiplying (or dividing) by factors of 10. The exponent indicates the number of factors: 10·10 = 10^2 = 100. It also matches the number of zeros following the 1 in the product. 1000 = 10^3 has 3 zeros after the 1, for example.
Answer:
7.5 quarts of olive oil remain.
Explanation:
Let
q = quarts of olive oil remain
<span>25%</span> of olive oil remains means that <span>75%</span> has been used.
22<span>12</span> quarts = 22.5 quarts used
<span><span>22.5.75</span>=<span>q.25</span></span>
Multiply both sides by .25 to isolate q.
<span><span>22.5.75</span><span>(.25)</span>=<span>q.25</span><span>(.25)</span></span>
<span><span>5.625.75</span>=q</span>
<span>7.5=<span>q</span></span>

Both 24 and 25 are rational. They can be turned into a fraction by putting a 1 as the denominator.
Answer:
-2/3
Step-by-step explanation:
This means that if a line is perpendicular to a line that has slope m, then the slope of the line is -1 / m. For example, we found that the slope of the line y = (1/2)x + 3 is 1/2. This is why any line that is perpendicular to this line would have slope -2 /1 = -2.
