Answer:
x = 18 and y = 6√10
Step-by-step explanation:
First using pythagoras theorem on the small triangle
h² = 6² + 2²
h² = 36 + 4
h² = 40
h= √40
h = √4 * 10
h = 2√10
Using the similarity theorem;
y/2√10 = 6/2
y/√10 = 6
y = 6√10
To get x we will use the pythagoras theorem
y² = x²+6²
(6√10)² = x² + 36
360 = x² + 36
x² = 360 - 36
x² = 324
x = 18
Hence x = 18 and y = 6√10
A and C are the correct answers.
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
A. 4.2E6 because when putting a number into scientific notation, you would want one number in front of the decimal place and then the trailing numbers would follow. The exponent or E stand for how many numbers are after the decimal, which in this case would be 6.
4,200,000 → 4.2 x 10^6 which is equal to saying 4.2E6
Tip: If the exponent is negative than the decimal would go in the opposite direction. For example:
4,200,000 → 4.2 x 10^-6 would not equal each other because 4.2 x 10^-6 means 0.000004, six numbers would be behind the decimal.
