All sacks of sugar have the same weight. All sacks of flour also have the same weight, but not necessarily the same as the weigh

t of the sacks of sugar. Suppose that two sacks of sugar together with three sacks of flour weigh no more than $40$ pounds, and that the weight of a sack of flour is no more than $5$ pounds more than the weight of two sacks of sugar. What is the largest possible weight (in pounds) of a sack of flour?

Sugar: x pounds
flour: 2x + 5 pounds
2x + 3(2x + 5) = 40
2x + 6x + 15 = 40
8x = 25
x = 3.125
-> a sack of flour is 3.125 + 5 = 8.125 pounds
I hope it‘s coorect

Step-by-step explanation:

it is a box or prism.

the volume is simply

length × width × height

in our case

8m × 6m × 5m = 240 m³

doubled dimensions means

16m × 12m × 10m = 1920 m³

the difference is

1920 - 240 = 1680 m³

we could have gotten the new volume also based on the original volume :

2×8m × 2×6m × 2×5m = 8m×6m×5m × 2×2×2 =

= the original volume (240 m³) × 8 = 1920 m³

Is this number written in scientific notation? 33.4 × 10 − 2 Group of answer choices Yes it is in scientific notation No it is n
Rus_ich [418]

Answer:

<h3>No it is not in scientific notation</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

The standard form of a scientific notation is expressed as:

A * 10^n where;

A is any number from between 1 and 10

Given the expression 33.4 × 10^ − 2

Comparing with the general formula, you will see that A = 33.2

Since the value of A does not fall between 1 and 10, hence the expression 33.4 × 10^-2 is not a scientific notation
