Answer:

-x+7=8

bring the 7 over.

to do so you must subtract 7 from itself (canceling it out), then also subtract it from 8.

now you have -x=1.

divide -x by -x (or -1) which just gives you positive x.

do the same to the 1 on the other side, giving you

x= -1

Both the La Plata river dolphin (Pontoporia blainvillei) and

Citrus2011 [14]

Answer:

1. A sperm whale is 3 orders of magnitude heavier than a La Plata river dolphin; 2. The radius of the larger ball is one (1) order of magnitude bigger than the radius of the smaller ball; 3. The volume of the larger ball is 3 orders of magnitude bigger than the volume of the smaller ball.

Step-by-step explanation:

If we expressed a number as:

$\\ N = a * 10^{b}$ (1)

Where

$\\ \frac{1}{\sqrt{10}} \leq a < \sqrt{10}$ (2)

$\\ 1 \leq a < 10$ (3)

Then, b represents the order of magnitude of such a number (Order of magnitude (2020), in Wikipedia).

The order of magnitude can be defined as "...the smallest power of ten needed to represent a quantity" (Weisstein, Eric W. "Order of Magnitude". From MathWorld--A Wolfram Web Resource).

Having gathered all this information, we can proceed as follows:

<h3>First case</h3>

The La Plata river dolphin weighs between 30 and 50kg and the sperm whale weighs between 35,000 and 40,000kg.

Then, considering (1) and (3) to express the dolphin and whale's weight (since in this way the order of magnitude is the same as the exponent part in the scientific notation):

$\\ 30kg \leq Dolphin_{weight} \leq 50kg$

$\\ 3*10^{1}kg \leq Dolphin_{weight} \leq 5*10^{1}kg$

$\\ 35000kg \leq Whale_{weight} \leq 40000kg$

$\\ 3.5*10^{4}kg \leq Whale_{weight} \leq 4.0*10^{4}kg$

Since the range for the weights are in the same order of magnitude for both dolphin and whale (considering the definition above):

$\\ Dolphin_{weight} = 10^{1}\;(order\;of\;magnitude=1)$

$\\ Whale_{weight} = 10^{4}\;(order\;of\;magnitude=4)$

Then

$\\ \frac{Whale_{weight} = 10^{4}}{Dolphin_{weight} = 10^{1}}$

$\\ \frac{Whale_{weight}}{Dolphin_{weight}} = \frac{10^{4}}{10^{1}}$

$\\ \frac{Whale_{weight}}{Dolphin_{weight}} = 10^{4-1}$

$\\ \frac{Whale_{weight}}{Dolphin_{weight}} = 10^{3}$

Thus

A sperm whale is 3 orders of magnitude heavier than a La Plata river dolphin.

<h3>Second case</h3>

Following the same reasoning, we can conclude that the radius of the larger ball is one (1) order of magnitude bigger than the radius of the smaller ball:

$\\ \frac{Larger\;ball_{radius}}{Smaller\;ball_{radius}} = \frac{10^{1}}{10^{0}}$

$\\ \frac{Larger\;ball_{radius}}{Smaller\;ball_{radius}} = 10^{1-0} = 10^{1}$

<h3>Third case</h3>

For this case, we need to calculate the volume of a sphere for both radii (1cm and 10cm).

The volume of a sphere is

$\\ V_{sphere} = \frac{4}{3}*\pi*R^{3}$

Then, the volume of the ball of radius 1cm is:

$\\ V_{radius=1} = \frac{4}{3}*\pi*(1cm)^{3}$

$\\ V_{radius=1} \approx 4.19*10^{0}cm^{3}$

And, the volume of the ball of radius 10cm is:

$\\ V_{radius=10} = \frac{4}{3}*\pi*(10cm)^{3}$

$\\ V_{radius=10} \approx 4.19*10^{3}cm^{3}$

Thus

$\\ \frac{10^{3}}{10^{0}} = 10^{3}$

As a result, the volume of the larger ball is 3 orders of magnitude bigger than the volume of the smaller ball.

Which figures are polygons

alexira [117]

Polygon: a figure formed by coplanar segments

with one distinct interior region

Figure A, Figure B, and Figure D would be considered polygons.

Notice that those figures I mentioned above are

composed of line segments, and nothing else.

In addition, these figures don't have two separate

interior regions and figures that do aren't polygons.

Figure C would not be a polygon because

it's formed by a curve rather than line segments.

Marianne is completing a 4 mile route for charity.Every 1/10 mile is marked along the route. For each mile,she runs 7/10 mile an

Dmitriy789 [7]

Seven tenths of every mile she goes she runs. So we would multiply 4 by seven tenths and get 2.8 miles. And to find out how many miles she walks, we would multiply 4 by three tenth and get 1.2

hope this helped!!
