Answer:

6.21\times 10^{-5}\ \text{light years}

Step-by-step explanation:

The distance light travels in one year is known as a light year.

1\ \text{light year}=5.87\times 10^{12}\ \text{miles}

The closest that Earth ever gets to Jupiter is 3.65\times 10^8\ \text{miles}

3.65\times 10^8\ \text{miles}=\dfrac{1}{5.87\times 10^{12}}\times 3.65\times 10^8\ \text{light years}\\\\=6.21\times 10^{-5}\ \text{light years}

Hence, the distance it will take light to travel from Earth to Jupiter at this distance is 6.21\times 10^{-5}\ \text{light years}

Your company recently made a purchase of 25 identical tables. The purchase price after adding 5 percent sales tax was 1,706.25.
ELEN [110]
If c = the cost of one table, the cost of all 25 tables before sales tax is 25·c

Since the sales tax is 5%, or 0.05, the sales tax for 25 tables is 25·c·0.05

Adding the sales tax to the original cost of the 25 tables can give you:
25·c + 25·c·0.05 = 1706.25
1.05·25·c = 1706.25
26.25·c = 1706.25
c = \frac{1706.25}{26.25} = 65

so the refund for 5 tables would be 5*65 = $325

And that x^0= 1

We have: 8^7 / 8^7= 8 ^ (7-7)=8^0=1
