Orders of Magnitude are in terms of scientific notation.
23,000 written in scientific notation is 2.3 x 10^4, it's magnitude is 4 ( the number 10 is raised to)
56 in scientific notation would be 5.6 x 10^1, its magnitude is 1.
4 - 1 = 3
2300 is 3 order of magnitudes larger.
The answer is 3.
You have to move both decimals over and then divide. So the answer is 25.
Answer:
He must sell 8 cards to reach the minimum goal.
Step-by-step explanation:
Giving the following information:
He wants to earn more than $50 at the fair.
He sells his cards for $2 and he has already earned $36.
<u>First, we need to calculate the money required to reach the minimum goal:</u>
51 - 36= $15
<u>Now, we write the inequality:</u>
2*x >15
x= number of cards sold.
x>15/2
x> 7.5
He must sell 8 cards to reach the minimum goal.
We now look at a right-angled triangle with sides a, b and c, as shown opposite. Pythagoras' Theorem states that, for any right-angled triangle, the area of the square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the areas of the squares on the two shorter sides.
