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.

Y and Z are vertical angles <br> Y=(2X + 7)<br> Z=(4X - 17)<br> value of x
Yuki888 [10]
Vertical angles are equal to each other, so to solve this, you can set the angle measures equal to each other and solve for x.

        Z = Y             Replace X and Y with their values
4x - 17 = 2x + 7     Isolate the value. Start by adding 17 to both sides
      4x = 2x + 24   Subtract 2x from both sides
      2x = 24           Divide both sides by 2
        x = 12
