Answer:
yay :D
Step-by-step explanation:
Because it makes quantities with a lot of digits small enough that you can do math with them.
example:
say you measure a wavelength in nanometers which is common for wavelengths but then have to use this quantity in an equation with the speed of light; 300,000,000 m/s ..
You then must convert one of these quantities to get both in the same units of measure. Usually you would write 600 nm as 6x10^11 m instead of a 12 digit decimal and speed of light as 3x10^8 m/s
B because one input value is connected to two output values
Let the number of equations be x and the number of vocabulary questions be y.
x + y = 26 (total num of questions)So, y = 26 - x (eliminate one variable to solve for one first)2x + 5y = 100 (total points)2x + 5 (26 - x) = 100 (substituting 26 - x in place of y)
2x + 130 - 5x = 100 (distributing the 5)-3x = -30x = 10
Since there are 10 equation questions, there must be 16 vocabulary questions to satisfy the total number of questions in the test...
