When adding or subtracting with scientific notation,why is it important to have the same power of 10?

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

Because we perform something like common factor, so this guarantee that corresponding digits have regarding coefficients have the same place value. Remember that a number written in scientific notation is given by the product of a number between 1 and 10 and another number that is power of 10. For example, let's write two examples about this:

Addition:

$a=2\times 10^3 \\ \\ b=4\times 10^3 \\ \\ \\ Then: \\ \\ a+b=2\times 10^3+4\times 10^3 \\ \\ =(2+4)\times 10^3 \\ \\ =5\times 10^3$

Addition:

$a=2\times 10^3 \\ \\ b=4\times 10^3 \\ \\ \\ Then: \\ \\ a+b=2\times 10^3+4\times 10^3 \\ \\ =(2+4)\times 10^3 \\ \\ =6\times 10^3$

Subtraction:

$a=7\times 10^5 \\ \\ b=2\times 10^5 \\ \\ \\ Then: \\ \\ a-b=7\times 10^5-2\times 10^5 \\ \\ =(7-2)\times 10^5 \\ \\ =5\times 10^5$

A soft drink company holds a contest in which a prize may be revealed on the inside of the bottle cap. The probability that each

andrezito [222]

Answer:

The probability that the customer must open 3 or more bottles before finding a prize is 0.64

Step-by-step explanation:

In order for a customer to have to open at least 3 bottles before winning a prize, then the first two bottles shouldnt have a price. The probability that a bottle doesnt have a price is 1-0.2 = 0.8. Since the bottles are independent from each other, then the probability that 2 bottles dont have a prize is 0.8² = 0.64. Therefore, the probability that the customer must open 3 or more bottles before finding a prize is 0.64

Find the solutions for a triangle with a = 16, c =12, and B = 63º.

maks197457 [2]

Answer:

b. A = 71.6°; C = 45.40°; b =15.0

Step-by-step explanation:

The missing values can be found with the help of the Law of Cosine and properties of triangles:

Side b (Law of Cosine)

$b = \sqrt{a^{2}+c^{2}-2\cdot a \cdot c \cdot \cos B}$

$b = \sqrt{16^{2}+12^{2}-2\cdot (16)\cdot (12) \cdot \cos 63^{\circ}}$

$b \approx 15.022$

Angle A (Law of Cosine)

$\cos A = -\frac{a^{2} - b^{2}-c^{2}}{2\cdot b \cdot c}$

$\cos A = - \frac{16^{2}-15.022^{2}-12^{2}}{2\cdot (15.022)\cdot (12)}$

$\cos A = 0.315$

$A= \cos^{-1} 0.315$

$A \approx 71.639^{\circ}$

Angle C (Sum of internal angles in triangles)

$C = 180^{\circ} - 63^{\circ} - 71.639^{\circ}$

$C = 45.361^{\circ}$

Hence, the right answer is B.

Solve for x.<br> 144°<br> 18 degrees<br> 30 degrees<br> 48 degrees<br> 120 degrees

disa [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

you have a rotation angle of 360 °, take out the known values (360 ° -90 ° -144 ° = 126), 144 ° is part of a flat angle of 180 °, from 180 ° remove 144 and you have 36 °, they are opposite angles therefore the same. therefore 360 - 144 - 90 - 36 - 36 = 54.

54 is 3x, so x = 18 ° (54 : 3 = 18)
