Answer:

1.3905 × 10^4

Step-by-step explanation:

First you should multiply all the two numbers inside the parentheses

5.7 × 105=598.5

4.6 × 106=487.6

2.9 × 105=304.5

Now add the three numbers

598.5+487.5+304.5= 1390.5

scientific notation: Put the decimal after the first digit. To find the exponent count the number of places from the decimal to the end of the number.

the answer in scientific notation: 1.3905 × 10^4

The graph of f(x)=cos(x) is transformed into a new function, g(x) , by stretching it vertically by a factor of 3 and shifting it

tresset_1 [31]

Answer:

g(x) = 3 cos (x+2)

Step-by-step explanation:

To transform functions use the following formula f(x) = a cos b(x -c) + d where:

a stretches the function vertically
b compresses or stretches it horizontally
c shifts the function left or right
d shifts the function up or down

Here a = 3 and c = 2.

So the new function is g(x) = 3 cos (x+2).

1. Find the digit that makes 3,71_ divisible by 9.

KiRa [710]

QUESTION 1

We want to find the digit that should fill the blank space to make

$3,71-$

divisible by 9.

If a number is divisible by 9 then the sum of the digits should be a multiple of 9.

The sum of the given digits is,

$3 + 7 + 1 = 11$

Since

$11 + 7 = 18$

which is a multiple of 9.

This means that

$3,717$

is divisible by 9.

The correct answer is B

QUESTION 2

The factors of the number 30 are all the numbers that divides 30 exactly without a remainder.

These numbers are ;

$1,2,3,5,6,10,15,30$

The correct answer is A.

QUESTION 3.

We want to find the prime factorization of the number 168.

The prime numbers that are factors of 168 are

$2,3 \: and \: 7$

We can write 168 as the product of these three prime numbers to obtain,

$168={2}^{3}\times 3\times7$

We can also use the factor tree as shown in the attachment to write the prime factorization of 168 as

$168 ={2}^{3}\times 3\times7$

The correct answer is B.

QUESTION 4.

We want to find the greatest common factor of

$140\:\:and\:\:180$

We need to express each of these numbers as a product of prime factors.

The prime factorization of 140 is

$140={2}^{2}\times 5\times7.$

The prime factorization of 180 is

$180={2}^{2} \times{3}^{2}\times5.$

The greatest common factor is the product of the least degree of each common factor.

$GCF={2}^{2}\times5$

$GCF=20$

The correct answer is A.

QUESTION 5.

We want to find the greatest common factor of

$15,30\: and\:60.$

We need to first find the prime factorization of each number.

The prime factorization of 15 is

$15=3\times5.$

The prime factorization of 30 is

$30=2\times 3\times 5.$

The prime factorization of 60 is

$60={2}^{2}\times3 \times5$

The greatest common factor of these three numbers is the product of the factors with the least degree that is common to them.

$GCF=3 \times5$

$GCF=15$

The correct answer is C.

QUESTION 6

We want to determine which of the given fractions is equivalent to

$\frac{3}{8}.$

We must therefore simplify each option,

$A.\: \: \frac{15}{32}=\frac{15}{32}$

$B.\:\:\frac{12}{32}=\frac{4\times 3}{4\times8}=\frac{3}{8}$

$C.\:\:\:\:\frac{12}{24}=\frac{12\times1}{12\times 2}=\frac{1}{2}$

$D.\:\:\frac{9}{32}=\frac{9}{32}$

The simplification shows that

$\frac{12}{32}\equiv \frac{3}{8}$

The correct answer is B.

QUESTION 7.

We want to express

$\frac{10}{22}$

in the simplest form.

We just have to cancel out common factors as follows.

$\frac{10}{22}=\frac{2\times5}{2 \times11}$

This simplifies to,

$\frac{10}{22}=\frac{5}{11}$

The correct answer is C.

QUESTION 8.

We were given that Justin visited $25$ of the $50$ states.

The question requires that we express $25$ as a fraction of $50.$

This will give us

$\frac{25}{50}=\frac{25\times1}{25\times2}$

We must cancel out the common factors to have our fraction in the simplest form.

$\frac{25}{50}=\frac{1}{2}$

The correct answer is C.

QUESTION 9.

We want to write

$2\frac{5}{8}$

as an improper fraction.

We need to multiply the 2 by the denominator which is 8 and add the product to 5 and then express the result over 8.

This gives us,

$2 \frac{5}{8}=\frac{2\times8+5}{8}$

this implies that,

$2\frac{5}{8}=\frac{16+5}{8}$

$2\frac{5}{8}=\frac{21}{8}$

Sarah needed

$\frac{21}{8}\:\:yards$

The correct answer is D.

QUESTION 10

See attachment

QUESTION 11

We wan to write

$3\: and\:\:\frac{7}{8}$

as an improper fraction.

This implies that,

$3+\frac{7}{8}=3\frac{7}{8}$

To write this as a mixed number, we have,

$3\frac{7}{8}=\frac{3\times8+7}{8}$

This implies that,

$3\frac{7}{8}=\frac{24+7}{8}$

This gives

$3\frac{7}{8}=\frac{31}{8}$

The correct answer is B.

QUESTION 12

We want to find the LCM of $30$ and $46$ using prime factorization.

The prime factorization of 30 is $30=2\times 3\times 5$

The prime factorization of 46 is $40=2\times 23$ .

The LCM is the product of the common factors with the highest degrees. This gives us,

$LCM=2\times \times3 5\times 23$

$LCM=690$

The correct answer is D.

QUESTION 13

We want to find the least common multiple of 3,6 and 7.

The prime factorization of $3$ is $3$ .

The prime factorization of 6 is $6=2\times 3$ .

The prime factorization of 7 is $7$ .

The LCM is the product of the common factors with the highest degrees. This gives us,

$LCM=2\times3 \times7$

$LCM=42$ .

The LCM is 42, therefore 42 days will pass before all three bikes will at the park on the same day again.

The correct answer is B.
