Answer:

12.5 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

He only needs 10/12 of a 15 foot long piece of wood. We need to find 10/12 of the length of the wood.

That is:

10/12 * 15 = 12.5 feet

He only needs 12.5 feet of the piece of wood.

2. Factorise: a - b - a + b2.square

marshall27 [118]

A - a removes both a’s from equation, then you’re left with b + bsquared, since they are unknown values you cannot combine them, even if it is the same letter, you can only add and subtract unknown values with their same letters together.

This number is in scientific notation. 2. 4 × 10-4 Convert the number into standard notation. What is the value? 2. 4 × 10-4 =.

dusya [7]

The value of the number 2.4x10⁻⁴ in the standard notation is 0.00024.

<h3>What are Scientific notations?</h3>

The way through which a very small or a very large number can be written in shorthand. In scientific notations when a number between 1 and 10s is multiplied by a power of 10.

For example, 6,500,000,000,000 can be written as 6.5×10¹².

As the value of the scientific notation is given 2.4x10⁻⁴, therefore, for bringing it in the standard form we need to shift the decimal to the left by four digits. So,

$2.4 \times 10^{-4}\\\\= \dfrac{2.4}{10000}\\\\= 0.00024$

Hence, the value of the number 2.4x10⁻⁴ in the standard notation is 0.00024.

15. $(-k^{3} -5k^{2} + 1) - (6k^{3}-k^{2} -2)$

Step 1: Distribute the subtraction sign to all the numbers in the second set of parentheses...

$(-k^{3} -5k^{2} + 1) - (6k^{3}-k^{2} -2)$

$-k^{3} -5k^{2} +1 - 6k^{3} +k^{2} +2$

Step 2: Combine like terms ( $k^{2}$ 's go with $k^{2}$ 's)

$-k^{3} -5k^{2} + 1 - 6k^{3}+k^{2} +2$

$-5k^{2} +k^{2}$

$-4k^{2}$

$-k^{3} -4k^{2} + 1 - 6k^{3}+2$

Step 3: Combine like terms ( $k^{3}$ 's go with $k^{3}$ 's)

$-k^{3} -4k^{2} + 1 - 6k^{3}+2$

$-k^{3} + (- 6k^{3})$

$-7k^{3}$

$-7k^{3} -4k^{2} + 1 +2$

Step 4: Combine like terms (normal numbers go with normal numbers)

$-7k^{3} -4k^{2} + 1 +2$

1 + 2

3

$-7k^{3} -4k^{2} + 3$

You were correct!
