<span>D) 9.0 x 10^10 km
This is more an exercise in handling scientific notation than anything else. Since we have the distance that light travels in 1 second and we want to calculate how far it travels in 5 minutes, we must first calculate how many seconds are in 5 minutes. Simply multiplying 5 by 60 gives us 300 seconds. Now we need to multiply 300 by 3.0x10^8 km. So
300 * 3.0x10^8 = ?
We could first convert 300 into scientific notion, but it's easier to just leave it along and assume that it's 300 x 10^0. So 300 times 3 is 900. And since 0 plus 8 is 8, we have as the answer:
900 x 10^8
But we're not done. The significand has to be greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10. So let's divide 900 by 100 and add 2 to the exponent. So we get
9 x 10^10
Finally, since our data had 2 significant figures, our result should have that as well. So let's add the 2nd digit getting:
9.0 x 10^10
So we know that light travels 9.0x10^10 km in 5 minutes, and that answer matches option "D" from the available choices.</span>
Answer:
A, x(x-4)
Step-by-step explanation:
None of them will give you the vertex you want but the x intercepts are only correct for A
We can find the value of PT from given information
PT = 4x - 6 and TQ = 3x + 4
if PT = TQ
4x - 6 = 3x + 4
4x - 3x = 4 + 6
x = 10
now put the value of x into PT = 4x - 6
PT = 4 (10) - 6
=40 - 6
PT = 34
The value of PT = 34
Answer:
A).Amount = $218250
B). Amount = $88700
Step-by-step explanation:
A) .$5000 in an account at age 23, and withdraw it 42 years
Number of years t= 42 years
Principal P = $5000
Rate r= 9%
Number of times compounded n= 42
A= p(1+r/n)^(nt)
A= 5000(1+0.09/42)^(42*42)
A= 5000(1+0.002143)^(1764)
A= 5000(1.002143)^1764
A= 5000(43.65)
A= 218250
Amount = $218250
B).waits 10 years before making the deposit, so that it stays in the account for only 32 years
Number of years t= 32 years
Principal P = $5000
Rate r= 9%
Number of times compounded n= 32
A= p(1+r/n)^(nt)
A= 5000(1+0.09/32)^(32*32)
A= A= 5000(1+0.0028125)^(1024)
A= 5000(1.0028125)^1024
A= 5000(17.74)
A= 88700
Amount = $88700
B is the answer to the question 6.8
