A certain star is 2.4 x 102 light years from the Earth. One light year is about 5.9 x 1012 miles. How far
Studentka2010 [4]

Answer:

2.5 x 10^{15} miles

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that 1 light year ≈ 5.9 x 10^{12} miles so:

  • 4.3 x 10² light year · <u>5.9 x </u>10^{12}<u> miles </u>                                                                                                
  •                                    1 light year

Multiply 4.3 an 5.9 and round to 2 significant digits then add the exponents:

                                              ≈25 x 10^{14}

This is not the scientific notation since the number is not between 0 and 10 so we move the decimal point by 1 place to the left. We then add 1 to the exponent to obtain the final answer:

                                                  ≈ 2.5 x 10^{15} miles

A = 2√3 ft.;c = 4 ft.<br> A = 8√3 sq. ft.<br> True<br> False
Vladimir79 [104]

False . The equation a= 2√3 ft.;c = 4 ft is: A= 2√3 ft².

<h3>Area of the triangle</h3>

Given:

a = 2√3 ft,

c = 4 ft,


Lengths of the sides of a right triangle = a and b

Hypotenuse= c

Hence:

<h3>Using Pythagorean theorem</h3>

c²=a²+b²

4²=(2√3)²+b²

16=12+b²

4=b²

b=2

Area of triangle

A=1/2×a×b

A=1/2×2√3×2

A=4√3÷2

A=2√3 sq.ft

The Area of the triangle is 2√3 ft².
