28 miles
Explanation: 170/3=56.667 which is your hourly rate so to get half of that you divide 56.667/2 which gets you 28.333 and when you round that is 28 therefore in half an hour you will go 28 miles

Use the following information to complete parts I, II, and III. 1 hour=3600 seconds

icang [17]

Answer:

I) There are $8.760\times 10^3$ hours in 1 year.

II) The exact number of hours in one year is $8.76582\times 10^3$ hours.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : 1 hour=3600 seconds

1 year = 31556952 seconds.

To find :

I) Use scientific notation to estimate the number of hours in one year.

1 day = 24 hours

1 year = 365 days

So, number of hours in one year is given by,

$n=24\times 365$

$n=8760$

In scientific notation,

$8760=8.760\times 10^3$

So, there are $8.760\times 10^3$ hours in 1 year.

II) 1 year = 31556952 seconds.

1 hour = 3600 seconds

In one year the number of hour is given by,

$n=\frac{31556952}{3600}$

$n=8765.82$

In scientific notation,

$8765.82=8.76582\times 10^3$

So, the exact number of hours in one year is $8.76582\times 10^3$ hours.

III) In two or more complete sentences, compare your answers to parts I and II. In your comparison, discuss similarities and differences.

The exact numbers of hours using 365 days is 8760 which is written as $8.760\times 10^3$ in scientific notation but using the given data we get $8.76582\times 10^3$ hours.

Comparing these answers the first one has only 3 significant figures and the second answer has six significant figures.

If we round these we get $8.8\times 10^3$ hours which has two significant numbers.
