Samuel is incorrect because he didn't subtract the power of the numbers.
<h3>How many more rod cells are there?</h3>
The number of rod and cone cells in the human eye is written in scientific notation. Scientific notation is used in expressing large numbers in smaller numbers. To write a number in scientific notation, the number is written as a decimal number, between 1 and 10 and multiplied by a power of 10. For example, 1 x 10² is equivalent to 100
(9.1 x 10^7) - (4.5 x 10^6)
= (9.1 - 4.5) x 10^(7 - 6)
4.6 x 10 = 46

Answer:a
Step-by-step explanation:
Answer:
B, 9
Step-by-step explanation:
Let g represent the number of glass items. Then the number of plastic items is (9g -30). If 85% of items are plastic, then 100%-85% = 15% of items are glass. The ratio of plastic to glass is ...
85%/15% = (9g -30)/g
17/3 = 9 -30/g . . . . simplify
30/g = 9 -17/3 = 10/3 . . . . . . add 30/g -17/3
g = 30(3/10) = 9 . . . . . . . . . . multiply by 3g/10
There are 9 glass items.
_____
<em>Additional comment</em>
The number of plastic items is 9(9) -30 = 51, and the total number of items is 51+9 = 60. The percentage of plastic items is 51/60 = 85%.
__
There are many other ways the equation(s) could be written, including using a system of two equations. For example ...
- p = 9g -30
- p/(p+g) = 0.85 . . . . . plastic is 85% of the total
B. 20
This is because a serving size is half a cup, so 10 × 2 is 20 because it takes 2 serving sizes to equal 1 cup.
