With scientific notation remember this rule; if the exponent is positive, move the decimal point that many places to the right. If it is negative move it that many places to the left. What that will do is make the number larger or smaller to the correct value.
So for example, if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^4 you would move the decimal four places to the right. So you would end up with 10200.
As another example if you had to solve 1.02 x 10^-2 you would move the decimal two places to the left. That would give you .0120.
So now we are onto your problem. 2.606 x 10^7.
You would move the decimal seven places to the right, because the exponent is positive, that will make your number larger(which would make more sense if you were adding populations, right?).
That would give you 26,060,000 people living in Texas.
From there simply add the two populations together and you will have your answer!
Answer:
Part A: chosen method is by factoring
Part B: First rewrite the equation by writing -24 as a difference so you get x² -9x - 15x + 135 = 0. Then factor out the x and the -15 from the equation so you get x(x-9) - 15(x-9) = 0. Then factor out x-9 from the equation so you have (x-9)(x-15) = 0. Finally, set each expression to 0: x-9=0 and x-15=0 and then solve: x=9 and x=15
Part C: x=9, x=15
The answer is 460
1. 23 ones is the same as 23
2. 2 tens is the same as 20
3. 23 ones x 2 tens is the same as 23
x20

You can get this by dividing 1 by 52 to find the likelihood. <span />
Usually, rugs have a rectangular shape, therefore the section of the living room that Patrick wants to cover is a rectangle.
The area of a rectangle can be found by multiplying the length and the width of the rectangle:
A = l × w
Hence, the most appropriate measurements Patrick should provide are the length and the width of the section of his living room he wants to cover.
