Sara and Sam are each working on a science project in which they need to research the individual masses of the nine planets (inc

luding the dwarf planet Pluto as the ninth planet). Sara completes her data for the planets' masses in kilograms while Sam's data is in milligrams.
Look at picture.


Approximate how many times greater Saturn's mass is than Mercury's.

A) 200,000
B) 2,000,000
C) 2,000
D) 20,000

Answer:

2000 times

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Sara:

Mercury = 3.302 * 10^{23

Saturn = 5.685 * 10^{26

Sam:

Mercury = 3.302 * 10^{29

Saturn = 5.685 * 10^{32

To determine the number of times, the mass of Saturn is greater than the mass of Mercury, we simply do the following:

Times = \frac{Saturn}{Mercury}

Using Sara's measurement; this gives:

Times = \frac{5.685 * 10^{26}}{3.302 * 10^{23}}

Apply law of indices

Times = \frac{5.685 * 10^{26-23}}{3.302}

Times = \frac{5.685 * 10^3}{3.302}

Times = 5.685/3.302 * 10^3

Times = 1.72 * 10^3

Approximate

Times = 2 * 10^3

Times = 2000

Answer:

3 games

Step-by-step explanation:

23 - 3.50 = 6.5g

6.5g = 23 - 3.5

6.5g = 19.50

g = 19.50 : 6.5

g = 3

Find the 11th partial sum of the summation of negative 7i plus 22, from i equals 1 to infinity.
marta [7]
I think you mean,

\sum_{i=1}^{\infty}(7i+22)

You can use the usual formula,

S_{k}=\frac{k}{2}(a_1+a_k)

That in this case is,

S_{11}=\frac{11}{2}(29+99)=704

Where I have used,

a_k=7\cdot k +22
