The error that was made by Raquel when expressing $304,900,000,000$

is that she didn't count the digit correctly, The correct digit is $3 *10^{11}$

Raquel was trying to express the figure in standard form but she doesn't count the number of digit very well and that was her mistake

Standard form helps to represent digits that are very long or short in simple form and fir conveniency sake

Therefore, the correct expression in standard form is $3 * 10^{11}$

If f(x)=8x+5, what is f(x)^-1?

Molodets [167]

F(8x+5)^-1=0.2

(8+5)^-1=0.077
5^-1=0.2
8x^-1=0.125
0.125-0.2=-0.075/0.2-0.125=0.075

The length of a rectangular field is 4 m longer than its width.

Artyom0805 [142]

We know the perimeter is the sum of all sides. So lenght+length+width+width = 2length+2width.
Let's call the width x. If the length is 4m longer, then it's x+4.
We know the perimeter, so we can make an equation:
56=2x+2(x+4)
And solve from there:
56=2x+2x+8
56=4x+8
48=4x
48/4=x
x=12

The width, which is x, is 12 m. And the length, x+4, is 16 m.
You can check this is correct by calculating the perimeter using those values: 12+12+16+16=56.
