Answer:
1.728×10¹⁵
Step-by-step explanation:
You may recall from 3rd grade that multiplying by 10 adds a zero to the right of a number (moves the decimal point 1 place to the right).
An exponent is used to signify repeated multiplication. These facts together are used to translate to/from scientific notation.
10 = 1 × 10
100 = 1 × 10 × 10 = 1 × 10²
__
Continuing in like fashion, 5.4×10⁸ represents 5.4 × (1 followed by 8 zeros).
Similarly, 3.2×10⁶ = 3.2 × (1 followed by 6 zeros)
The product will be ...
(5.4×10⁸)×(3.2×10⁶) = (5.4×3.2) × (1 followed by 8+6 = 14 zeros)
= 17.28 × 10¹⁴
= (1.728 × 10) × 10¹⁴ . . . moving the decimal point so there's 1 digit to its left
Adding that extra zero into the count we already have, this becomes ...
= 1.728×10¹⁵

Your scientific or graphing calculator will have a mode for showing numbers in scientific notation. You can enter these numbers directly into your calculator and have it show you the result in scientific notation.
Or, you can use a spreadsheet with appropriate output cell formatting.
Answer:
b
Step-by-step explanation:
Pythagoras formula for the relation of the side lengths of a right-angled triangle :
c² = a² + b²
c is the Hypotenuse (the side opposite of the 90 degree angle). a and b are the "legs".
so, we have here
c² = 1² + 2² = 1 + 4 = 5
c = sqrt(5) = 2.236067977...
so, answer option c is too big (values bigger than 3).
answer options d and e are too small (values smaller than 2).
a
9/4 = 2.25
10/4 = 2.5
this is also too big .
that leaves us with b
17/8 = 2.125
18/8 = 9/4 = 2.25
that is correct
The chance of that would be 6.25% because there's a 50% chance for the first flip, then 25% percent chance for the second throw, the third is 12.5%, and the chance for the fourth and final toss to be heads would be 6.25%.
The answer is X = 5 hope that helped
