Answer:

the first one should be 5.28x10^-2 and the second one should be 3.2x10^6

Step-by-step explanation:

because with 0.0528 you move the decimal right twice. which makes it negative.

with 3,200,000 you assume that the decimal is at the end and move it between the three and the two. making it have 6 moves. since it moves left its positive

Answer:

0.0528=5.28*10^-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Scientific notation is a simpler way to write very large or very small numbers. In this case, you want to write a small number in simpler form. To write in scientific notation, the number being multiplied always has to be between 1 and 10. Here, it is 5.28, so we aren't breaking the rule. You can see that we moved the decimal two places to the right, which is going to make the exponent negative (the opposite applies for larger numbers). To convert to scientific notation, move the decimal place to the right or left until you get a number between 1 and 10. Then, if you moved to the right, multiply the number that is between 1 and 10 by 10 the the negative [# of spaces that you moved the decimal] power. If you moved it left, do the same but a positive exponent. To convert <em>from</em> scientific notation, write the number that is being multipied by 10 on a sheet of paper. if the exponent is negative, you'll have to move the decimal left for every number that the exponent is. For example, if the exponent was -5, you would move the decimal to the left 5 times. If it was just 5, you would move the decimal to the right 5 times. Then, there's your number.

A grocery store clerk put only cans of tomato soup and cans of chicken soup on a shelf. The ratio of the number of cans of chick

larisa [96]

Answer:

9 cans of tomato soup

Step-by-step explanation:

We are told that only cans of tomato soup and cans of chicken soup are put on the shelf.

Now, we are told that the ratio of the number of cans of chicken noodle soup to the total number of cans on the shelf was 8 to 17.

In fraction, this is 8/17

Now, this implies that there are 8 cans of chicken noodle soup while there are a total of 17 cans on the shelf.

Thus,

Since only cans of chicken noodles and cans of tomato soup are on the shelf, it means;

Cans of tomato soup = 17 - 8 = 9

The mean life of a particular brand of light bulb is 1200 hours. If you know that at about 95% of this brand of bulbs will last

Pachacha [2.7K]

Answer:

c) 50

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that the mean life of a particular brand of light bulb is 1200 hours. About 95% of this brand of bulbs will last between 1100 and 1300 hours.

We will use z-score formula to solve our given problem.

$z=\frac{x-\mu}{\sigma}$ , where,

$z=\text{z-score}$ ,

$x=\text{Sample score}$ ,

$\mu=\text{Mean}$ ,

$\sigma=\text{Standard deviation}$

We know that 95% of data points lies within two standard deviation of mean, so 1100 will correspond to a z-score of -2 and 1300 will correspond to a z-score of 2.

$-2=\frac{1000-1200}{\sigma}$
