Answer:

  C. 2c+12

Step-by-step explanation:

"12 more than 2 times the number of cats" means "12 + 2c", where c is the number of cats.

To get 2 times, we multiply by 2. To get 12 more, we add 12.

What are the steps to solve this problem? 0.000027 divided 0.000009. explain how to use scientific notation?
Neporo4naja [7]
Put it into standard form so you would have

27x10¯6 divided by 9x10¯6

Then you can divide the numbers so 27/9 = 3

Then to divide the powers you just take them away so - 6--6 = - 6 +6 = 0

Therefore the answer is just 3

Convert this number expressed in standard form to scientific notation
Sergeu [11.5K]

Answer:

28,500,000 into scientific notation is 2.85 x 10⁷

2.85 x 100 in scientific notation is 2.85 x 10²

If BC = 61 and AB = 82, what is the length of AC?
Nitella [24]

Answer:

54.8

Step-by-step explanation:

Pythagorean theorem is a^2+b^2=c^2.

Plug the given values in to get 61^2+b^2=82^2

61^2 is 3,721 and 82^2 is 6,724.

6,724-3,721 is 3,003.

The square root of 3,003, rounded to a reasonable value, is 54.8.

The length of AC is 54.8.
