Hi there!

To get the answer to this question, let's divide the diameter of the Earth by the diameter of Mercury.

$\frac{1.3*10^4}{4.9*10^3}$

We can change this to

$\frac{1.3}{4.9}*\frac{10^4}{10^3}$

Let's solve for each individual fraction

$\frac{1.3}{4.9}$ ≈ 0.27

$\frac{10^4}{10^3}$ = 10

Now, multiply.

0.27 * 10 = 2.7

That's your answer.

Have an awesome day/night! :)

This box plot shows information about the marks scored in a test.

Since 120 students gained less than 70, and 70 is the upper quartile, 120 people are in the 75% of all the students so we need to find the total number of students.
we need to multiply 0.75 (75%) by something to get 120. which is 160 (the total number of all students).
and since 48 is the median score, find 50% of 160 which is 80!
hope this helps :)

Use the expression 9(7 + 2x) to answer the following:

oksian1 [2.3K]

Part A: Describe the two factors in this expression. (4 points) The factors are (1) the constant coefficient 9 and (2) the binomial (7+2x).

Part B: How many terms are in each factor of this expression? (4 points) The first factor (multiplicand), 9, has one term. The second factor (multiplicand), (7+2x), has two terms (and is thus called a binomial).

Part C: What is the coefficient of the variable term? (2 points) The only such coefficient is 2.
