Answer:
The answer to your question is: letter A
Step-by-step explanation:
Rules for using scientific notation:
1.- The number before the decimal point must be between 1 and 10.
2.- Determine the exponent
3.- It must be in decimal format, ( x 10)
A 3.8*10^12 This number is in correct scientific notation.
B 33.8* 10 This number is incorrect, because before the decimal point the number must be between 1 and 10.
C 3.8 *20^8 This number is incorrect because the power must be 10 not 20.
Answer:
448in^2
Step-by-step explanation:
The area of a trapezoid is the bases added divided by two times the height.
(32+24)/2*16=28*16=448 in^2
Answer:
I will assume that the term "x+2/2" is meant to be "(x + 2)/2)." Otherwise the equation would read (x/3) = x + 1
Step-by-step explanation:
(x/3) = (x + 2)/2
x = 3*(x+2)/2 [Multiply both sides by 3]
x = (3x + 6)/2
x = (3/2)x + 6/2
x - (3/2)x = 3
-0.5x = 3
x = -6
====================
Check:
Does (x/3) = (x + 2)/2 for x = -6?
(-6/3) = (-6 + 2)/2
-2 = -4/2
-2 = -2 YES
2 because 8 divided by 4 is 2.
Answer:
A computer costs $225 and a printer $150.
Step-by-step explanation:
Let c be the cost of a computer and p the cost of a printer, then:
3c + p = 825
4c + 2p = 1200
Multiply the first equation by -2:
-6c - 2p = -1650
Add this to the second equation:
-2c = -450
c = 225.
Now substitute c = 225 in the first equation:
3*225 + p = 825
p = 825 - 675 = 150.
