The Grand Canyon is about 1.6×103 meters deep. Scientists think that the Colorado River has been eroding the Grand Canyon for 4.
0×106 years. According to these scientists, what is the approximate average rate of erosion written in scientific notation?
1 answer:
So start with your standard numbers. Divide 1.6 by 4 and you get 0.4
With the exponents, since you’re dividing, you keep the base and subtract the exponents. So 3-6=-3
You’d get 0.4 x 10 to the -3 but that’s not correct scientific notation because you have to have a value 1 or larger.
Move the decimal to the right one place (making the standard number larger) and make the exponent smaller to balance it out.
4 x 10 to the -4 power.

Step-by-step explanation:
The answer is C. You had it correct.
40(7.85) = 314
314 - (32.24 + 24.02 + 24.53) =
314 - 80.79 = 233.21 <== net pay
I believe the slope is 3/4
9-3 = 6
4 - (-4) = 8
Simplify to get 3/4
