Answer:

Maria

Step-by-step explanation:

A typical snake bite delivers 0.0045 grams of venom.

Maria wrote it in scientific notation as 4.5\times 10^{-3}

Tammy wrote it in scientific notation as 4.5\times 10^{3}

Any number can be written in the form of scientific notation as follows :

N=a\times 10^b (a is real no and b is integer)

The given no is 0.0045.

There are 2 zeroes before 4. Also the decimal is there before 2 zeroes.

0.0045=\dfrac{45}{10000}\\\\=\dfrac{45}{10}\times \dfrac{1}{1000}\\\\=4.5\times 10^{-3}

Hence, Maria is correct.

A function g(x) has x-intercepts at (1/2, 0) and (6, 0). which could be g(x)?
AlexFokin [52]
The x-intercepts of a function are used to express the function into factored form:
From (1/2, 0)
(x - 1/2)

From (6, 0)
(x-6)

(x - 1/2) (x-6) = 0
(2x -1)(x-6) = 0

The function is:
B. g(x) = (x – 6)(2x – 1)
