Answer:

0.25g + 0.05g + 500g = 500.30g

Step-by-step explanation:

The first step is converting everything to grams, by rules of three. Then we add.

In a rule of three problem, the first step is identifying the measures and how they are related, if their relationship is direct of inverse.

When the relationship between the measures is direct, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure is going to increase too.

When the relationship between the measures is inverse, as the value of one measure increases, the value of the other measure will decrease.

Unit conversion problems, like this one, is an example of a direct relationship between measures.

First step: 0.5kg to g

Each kg has 1000g. So

1kg - 1000g

0.5kg - xg

x = 1000*0.5

x = 500g

0.5kg = 500g

Second step: 50mg to g

Each g has 1000mg. So:

1g - 1000mg

xg - 50mg

1000x = 50

x = \frac{50}{1000}

x = 0.05g

50mg = 0.05g

Third step: 2.5dg to g

Each g has 10dg. So:

1g - 10dg

xg - 2.5dg

2.5x = 10

x = \frac{2.5}{10}

x = 0.25g

2.5 dg = 0.25g

Final step: Add

0.25g + 0.05g + 500g = 500.30g

Convert from Decimal Notation to Scientific Notation
umka21 [38]

Answer:

Hence, 0.026 can be expressed as $2.6 \times 10^{-2}$.

Step-by-step explanation:

- Given 0.026

- Use given, move the decimal point so that first factor is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10 .

- Then count n and write in scientific notation.

Step 1 of 1

Consider 0.026

$$\Rightarrow 2.6$$

Decimal has moved 2 places to right.

The power will be negative as original no. is less than 1 .

$$\begin{aligned}&2.6 \times 10^{-2} \\&0.026=2.6 \times 10^{-2} .\end{aligned}$$

The surface area of a rectangular prism is the sum of:
Anastaziya [24]

Answer:

Surface area of prism=2(l+w)h+2(lw)

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that surface area of rectangular prism=2(lw+lh+wh)

We have to write an expression that represents the surface area of prism.

Base of prism is made from length and width

Perimeter of base =2(l+w)

Area of base=lw=Area of top

Surface area of prism=Perimeter of base multiply by height+2 area of base

Because area of base and area of top are equal.

Surface area of prism=Ph+2B=2(l+w)h+2(lw)
