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.

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

After a rotation of 90° about the origin, the coordinates of the vertices of the image of a triangle are A'(6,3), B'(-2, 1)
Fed [463]

Answer:

  • A(3, -6)
  • B(1, 2)
  • C(7, -1)

Step-by-step explanation:

Rotation by -90° about the origin is the transformation ...

  (x, y) ⇒ (y, -x)

So, your pre-image points are ...

  A'(6, 3) ⇒ A(3, -6)

  B'(-2, 1) ⇒ B(1, 2)

  C'(1, 7) ⇒ C(7, -1)

A jar contains $14.25 in quarters and dimes. There are 75 coins in the jar. Find the number of quarters in the jar.
Marianna [84]
Set up a system of equations.
d + q = 75
.1d + .25q = 14.25

Multiply the first equation by -.1 so that the "d's" will cancel.
-.1d -.1q = -7.5
.1d +.25q = 14.25
Now add the two equations together
      .15q = 6.75
divide both sides by .15
        q = 45
There are 45 quarters in the jar
