Answer:

1.2 * 10^3

Step-by-step explanation:

3.12 * 10^8

=========

2.6 * 10^5

Start by doing 3.12 / 1.6 = 1.2 and that is the correct number of sig digs.

Now get the power on the 10. When dividing, the powers subtract.

10^(8 - 5)

10^ 3

The answer is 1.2 * 10^3

Oksi-84 [34.3K]

Answer:

P(N)=0.3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: P(M)= 0.46, P(M and N)=0.138

Using P(M) ×P(N)= P(M and N)

⇒0.46×P(N)= 0.138

⇒P(N)= $\frac{0.138}{0.46}$

⇒P(N)=0.3

The room is a cube with edge length 11 feet including the ceiling in the floor how much surface area must be painted

Xelga [282]

Answer: 726cm squared

Surface area is the area of all the faces added together.

If the area of one face is 11x11=121

Because it is a cube and it has six faces with the same surface area we do 121x6=726 to give us the total surface area.
