1 answer:

3 0

Deduction is a process of reasoning in which we explain the logicality of one statement with the help of others. Or in other words, several statements or premises help us to make a certain conclusion. In order to find the n-th element in some ordered set we should find and understand the relationship between the element, between the first and the second, between the second and the third...and so on. So , finding these relations we can conclude what is the n-th element and that is a process of deduction.

In 2013, New York City (NYC) and Los Angeles (LA) has the highest populations of any cities in the United States. NYC’s populati

inna [77]

The population of these two cities combined in scientific notation is 11.9 x $10^{6}$

Step-by-step explanation:

1a. Population of NYC is 8.1 x $10^{6}$

1b. Population of LA is 3.8 x $10^{6}$

2.To find total population of the two cities combined,

2a. Add population of NYC and LA

Total population = NYC's population + LA's population

Total population = (8.1 x $10^{6}$ ) + (3.8 x $10^{6}$ )

2b. Take $10^{6}$ common

Total population = $10^{6}$ * (8.1 + 3.8)

Total population = $10^{6}$ * 11.9

Therefore, the population of these two cities combined in scientific notation is 11.9 x $10^{6}$

Practice Skills_ Simplifying Inequality1. 3( 1/2 - y) = 3/5 + 15y. What isthe solution to the given inequality?

Angelina_Jolie [31]

3( 1/2 - y) = 3/5 + 15y

Applying distributive property:

3*1/2 - 3y = 3/5 + 15y

3/2 - 3y = 3/5 + 15y

3/5 is adding on the right, then it will subtract on the left

3y is adding on the left, then it will subtract on the right

3/2 - 3/5 = 15y + 3y

15/10 - 6/10 = 18y

9/10 = 18y

18 is multiplying on the right, then it will divide on the left

9/10*1/18 = y

1/10*1/2 = y

1/20 = y

Describe the steps you would take to solve the given literal equation for m as shown.

solniwko [45]

T = 2 $\pi$ $\sqrt{m/k}$

1. Divide both sides by 2 $\pi$
--> t / 2 $\pi$ = $\sqrt{m/k}$

2. Square both sides
--> $t^{2}$ / 4 $\pi^{2}$ = m / k

3. Multiply both sides by k
--> m = k $t^{2}$ / 4 $\pi ^{2}$
