10% of 4200 is 420
2% of 4200 is 84
420+84 is 504
4200-504=3696
Hope this helps

Multiply and give the answer in scientific notation: (2.3 x 10-3)(3 x 108) A) 6.9 x 105 B) 6.9 x 1011 C) 6.9 x 10-5 D) 6.9 x 102

Furkat [3]

Answer: A) is the right answer. $6.9\times10^{5}$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given product : $2.3\times10^{-3}\times3\times10^8$

To multiply above expression, first we need to combine like terms and then we need to use the law of exponents.

$2.3\times3\times10^{-3}\times10^8\\=(2.3\times3)\times(10^{-3}\times10^8)\\=6.9\times10^{-3+8}......[\text{by law of exponents }a^n\cdot\ a^m=a^{m+n}]\\=6.9\times10^{5}$

Thus, the answer is $6.9\times10^{5}$ .

When 2(3/5 x + 2/3 y - 1/4 x -1 1/2 y + 3 )is simplified, what is the resulting expression?

vovangra [49]

Answer:

Simplifying the expression: $2(\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{4}x-1\frac{1}{2}y +3)$ we get $\mathbf{42x-100y-360}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We need to simplify the expression: $2(\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{4}x-1\frac{1}{2}y +3)$

First we will solve terms inside the bracket

$2(\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{4}x-1\frac{1}{2}y +3)$

Converting mixed fraction $1\frac{1}{2} y$ into improper fraction, we get: $\frac{3}{2}y$

Replacing the term:

$2(\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{4}x-\frac{3}{2}y +3)$

Now, taking LCM of: 5,3,4,2 we get 60

Now multiply 60 with each term inside the bracket

$2(\frac{3}{5}x\times60+\frac{2}{3}y\times60-\frac{1}{4}x\times60-\frac{3}{2}y\times60 +3\times60)\\2(3x\times12+2y\times20-1x\times15-3x\times30-3\times60)\\2(36x+40y-15x-90y-180)$

Now, combine like terms

$2(36x-15x-90y+40y-180)\\2(21x-50y-180)$

Now, multiply all terms with 2

$42x-100y-360$

So, Simplifying the expression: $2(\frac{3}{5}x+\frac{2}{3}y-\frac{1}{4}x-1\frac{1}{2}y +3)$ we get $\mathbf{42x-100y-360}$

Divide -1/6 divided -2/9

alexdok [17]

Dividing two fractions is the same as multiplying the first fraction by the reciprocal (inverse) of the second fraction.

Take the reciprocal of the second fraction by flipping the numerator and denominator, leaving the negative sign on the numerator, and changing the operation to multiplication. Then the equation becomes

For fraction multiplication, multiply the numerators and then multiply the denominators to get

This fraction can be reduced by dividing both the numerator and denominator by the Greatest Common Factor of 9 and 12 using
