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

Issouf claims that the scale factor is 1/2. which statement about his claim is correct?

love history [14]

Answer:

The correct option is D.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that Issouf claims that the scale factor is 1/2.

From the given figure it is clear that

$CB'=C'B'=2$

$B'B=6$

$CB=CB'+B'B=2+4=6$

The scale factor of a figure is

$k=\frac{\text{Length of any side of image}}{\text{Length of corresponding side of preimage}}$

$k=\frac{C'B'}{CB}$

$k=\frac{2}{6}$

$k=\frac{1}{3}$

The scale factor is 1/3 because CB is actually 2 + 4 = 6.

Therefore the correct option is D.

Which graph represents the solution to the given system y=-3x-4 and y=3/4x+2

tatyana61 [14]

Answer:

See attached picture

Step-by-step explanation:

To graph, use y=mx+b as a guide where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

y=-3x-4

Start at -4 on the y-axis. Plot a point. This is the y-intercept b. From this point count down 3 units and 1 unit to the right. Plot this point and connect.

y=3/4x +2

Start at 2 on the y-axis. Plot a point. This is the y-intercept b. From this point count up 3 units and 4 units to the right. Plot this point and connect.
