Answer:
The end of the flagpole is 50.79 ft away from the base of the pole.
Step-by-step explanation:
The problem is represented by the diagram below.
The broken flagpole forms the shape of a right angled triangle. We need to find one of the sides of the triangle, the adjacent (x).
The hypotenuse is the broken part of the flagpole (53 ft), while the opposite is the part of the flagpole that is still stuck to the ground (28 ft).
Using Pythagoras theorem, we have that:
=> 
The end of the flagpole is 50.79 ft away from the base of the pole.
Step-by-step explanation:
(F-g) (X)
= f(x) - g(x)
(2x² + 2 )-(x²-1) =
3x²+3

Answer:
7.789×10^-2 = 0.07789 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Your calculator can find the difference of the two given diameters and express it in any format you like.
The attached image of a calculator display shows the difference of the cell diameters is 0.07789 = 7.789×10^-2 cm.
__
The difference of two numbers with different exponents is found by first adjusting the exponents so they are the same. Here, we choose to adjust both numbers so they have the highest exponent value.
8.83×10^-2 - 6.01×10^-3
= 8.39×10^-2 - 0.601×10^-2 = (8.39 -0.601)×10^-2 = 7.789×10^-2
Alternatively, you can convert both numbers to standard form and do the subtraction that way.
8.83×10^-2 - 6.01×10^-3
= 0.0883 -0.00601 = 0.07789

<em>Additional comment</em>
The second attachment shows the relationship between place values and their multiplier in scientific notation.
__
The choice of exponent when computing the sum or difference of numbers in scientific notation is usefully informed by an estimate of the value of the sum or difference. A proper choice can avoid the need to adjust the exponent of the result of the operation. Here, we see the subtraction will change the larger value by less than 10%, so the exponent of the result in scientific notation will be that of the larger value (-2).
