4.5*10^3/9*10^7=4.5/9*10^3*10^7=0.5*10^3*10^7. a^b*a^c=a^(b+c), so 10^3*10^7=10^(3+7)=10^10. 0.5*10^10=5*10^9, since we want to write in scientific notation where the leading number is bigger than one and smaller than 10.

Given that <span>Li
is making beaded necklaces for each necklace, she uses 27 spacers, plus
5 beads per inch of necklace length.
The equation to find how many
beads Li needs for each necklace can be obtained as follows:
A. The input variable is the number of inches of the necklace length (x).
B. The output variable is the number of beads Li needs for each necklace (y).
C. The required equation is given by
y = 5x</span>
You simply need to compute the ratio between the length of the segment
and the length of the corresponding segment
12x - 4y = -8
y = 3x + 2
Rewrite the first equation
12x + 8 = 4y
3x + 2 = y
As you see, the first and second equation are actually the same, meaning there's an infinite number of solutions.
