X=11,-1 is the right answer
<span>D) 9.0 x 10^10 km
This is more an exercise in handling scientific notation than anything else. Since we have the distance that light travels in 1 second and we want to calculate how far it travels in 5 minutes, we must first calculate how many seconds are in 5 minutes. Simply multiplying 5 by 60 gives us 300 seconds. Now we need to multiply 300 by 3.0x10^8 km. So
300 * 3.0x10^8 = ?
We could first convert 300 into scientific notion, but it's easier to just leave it along and assume that it's 300 x 10^0. So 300 times 3 is 900. And since 0 plus 8 is 8, we have as the answer:
900 x 10^8
But we're not done. The significand has to be greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10. So let's divide 900 by 100 and add 2 to the exponent. So we get
9 x 10^10
Finally, since our data had 2 significant figures, our result should have that as well. So let's add the 2nd digit getting:
9.0 x 10^10
So we know that light travels 9.0x10^10 km in 5 minutes, and that answer matches option "D" from the available choices.</span>
Answers: 12-x=3 | x+3y=27 | 4y-10=14 | 1/3xy=18
Explanation: x=9 and y=6
12-(9)=3 | (9)+3(6)=27 | 4(6)-10=14 | 1/3(9)(6)=18
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Arithmetic sequence:
Here a is the first term and d is the common difference.
⇒ 
------------(I)
⇒ a + 19d = 100 ---------(II)
Subtract equation (I) from (II)
(I1) a + 19d = 100
(II) a + 13d = 46
<u>- - -</u>
6d = 54
d = 54 ÷ 6
Substitute d = 9 in equation(I) and find 'a',
a + 13*9= 46
a + 117 = 46
a = 46 - 117
a = -71
= -71 + 18
= -53
= -71 + 54
= -17
= -71 + 9*n - 1 *9
= -71 + 9n - 9
= -71 - 9 + 9n
= - 80 + 9n
Answer:
Jackie is incorrect. Since 2 pints equal 1 quart, she would need to multiply 12 by 2 to get the correct answer of 24 pints.
