The <em><u>correct answer</u></em> is:
7.8 × 10⁷
Explanation:
To write a number in scientific notation, we want the decimal behind the first non-zero digit in the number. The first non-zero digit in 78 is 7; this means we want 7.8. In order to have the decimal point behind the 7, we need to move the decimal 7 places. This is the exponent of 10 in our scientific notation, which gives us
7.8 × 10⁷
Given:
The expression is:
To find:
Part A: The expression using parentheses so that the expression equals 23.
Part B: The expression using parentheses so that the expression equals 3.
Solution:
Part A:
In option A,
[Using BODMAS]
In option B,
[Using BODMAS]
In option C,
In option D,
[Using BODMAS]
After the calculation, we have and .
Therefore, the correct options are B and D.
Part B: From part A, it is clear that
Therefore, the correct option is C.
424.1
the nearest 10th refers to the first decimal place therefore there would only need to be 1 decimal place. and you don’t the round the 1 up when dropping the 2 because the 2 is less than five.
Answer: -2/7
Step-by-step explanation:
To find the slope, you use the formula 
.
Now, we know the slope is -2/7.
Volume
of a rectangular box = length x width x height<span>
From the problem statement,
length = 60 - 2x
width = 10 - 2x
height = x</span>
<span>
where x is the height of the box or the side of the equal squares from each
corner and turning up the sides
V = (60-2x) (10-2x) (x)
V = (60 - 2x) (10x - 2x^2)
V = 600x - 120x^2 -20x^2 + 4x^3
V = 4x^3 - 100x^2 + 600x
To maximize the volume, we differentiate the expression of the volume and
equate it to zero.
V = </span>4x^3 - 100x^2 + 600x<span>
dV/dx = 12x^2 - 200x + 600
12x^2 - 200x + 600 = 0</span>
<span>x^2 - 50/3x + 50 = 0
Solving for x,
x1 = 12.74 ; Volume = -315.56 (cannot be negative)
x2 = 3.92 ;
Volume = 1056.31So, the answer would be that the maximum volume would be 1056.31 cm^3.</span><span>
