We know that 1 cm = 400 km
Therefore, 22 cm = x
Cross multiply:
(1)x = (400×22)
x = 8800

4 • 2.36 • 0.25 can be rewritten as 4 • 0.25 • 2.36 using the Commutative Property. Explain how the Commutative Property makes t

kati45 [8]

Ok so first multiply 4 by .25 to get 1 then 1 by 2.36 to get 2.36
This makes it easier because multiplying by 1 is easier then by a number with decimals

If 5 + 20 times 2 Superscript 2 minus 3 x Baseline = 10 times 2 Superscript negative 2 x Baseline + 5, what is the value of x? –

sp2606 [1]

Answer:

<h3>Option D) 3 is correct</h3><h3>Therefore the value of x is 3</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation is $5+20\times (2)^{2-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}+5$

<h3>To find the value of x :</h3>

First solving the given equation we have,

$5+20\times (2)^{2-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}+5$

$5+20\times (2)^{2-3x}-5=10\times (2)^{-2x}+5-5$

$20\times (2)^{2-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}$

$20\times (2)^2.(2)^{-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}$

$20\times 4.(2)^{-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}$

$80(2)^{-3x}=10\times (2)^{-2x}$

$\frac{80}{10}(2)^{-3x}=\frac{10\times (2)^{-2x}}{10}$

$8(2)^{-3x}=(2)^{-2x}$

$\frac{(2)^{-3x}}{(2)^{-2x}}=\frac{1}{8}$

$(2)^{-3x}.(2)^{2x}=\frac{1}{2^3}$ ( by using the property $\frac{1}{a^{-m}}=a^m$ )

$2^{-3x+2x}=\frac{1}{2^3}$ ( by using the property $a^m.a^n=a^{m+n}$ )

$2^{-x}=\frac{1}{2^3}$

$\frac{1}{2^x}=\frac{1}{2^3}$ ( by using the property $a^{-m}=\frac{1}{a^m}$ )

Since bases are same so powers are same

Therefore we can equate the powers we get x=3

<h3>Therefore the value of x is 3</h3><h3>Option D) 3 is correct</h3>

What number must be added to 15,-6, and 12 to have a mean of 5? Explain.

Genrish500 [490]

You need to add a -1

We can find this by setting up the equation like so

x + (-6) + 12 + 15 / 4 = 5

x + 21 = 20

x = 20 -21

x = -1

Now if we insert -1 where x is located in the equation, you will get a means of 5

Which gases are released into the atmosphere when volcanoes erupt?

Evgen [1.6K]

Answer:

The volcanoes are formed adjacent to a convergent plate boundary, in which the denser plate subducts under a less denser plate. These subducting plates undergoes partial melting at greater depths and the magma is forced to rise up towards the over-riding plate, resulting in the formation of the volcano and chains of volcanoes.

These volcanoes when undergoes eruptions, releases various types of gases. They are such as the Carbon dioxide (CO₂), Water vapor (H₂O), Sulfur dioxide (SO₂), Hydrogen sulfide (H₂S) and Carbon monoxide (CO).

These gases are harmful to the atmosphere as it creases the green house effect thereby increasing the earth's global temperature.
