First, find the number of inches
<span>1225 Miles = 77616000 Inches

then, move the decimal to until you have a ones place.    </span>
<span>77616000.    the decimal for this number moves to the left SEVEN places.
you end up with 7.7616000
</span>
it will look like this:

7.8 * 10^7

I rounded to the .8 because you didn't state how many significant figures, but it could easily be 7.76 * 10^7

the exponent above the 10 will tell you how many places to move. to get back to your original number, move it back to the right seven places. Of course, you would have to place hold the numbers with 0s. If it were negative, you would move the decimal the opposite way.

Step-by-step explanation:

y = mx + b

y = -1/5 x + b

1 = -1/5 (-5) + b

Some teachers compared how many years they have been teaching.
Alex_Xolod [135]

Answer:

6

Step-by-step explanation:

The range of a data set is the numbers covered by the data. This means that the range is the difference between the minimum and maximum. The minimum is the smallest point, 2, and the maximum is the largest point, 8. Therefore, since 8-2=6, 6 must be the range.
