3.124 * 10^-4
since your decimal is coming forward you need the exponent to be negative
The best thing to do is to find what 1% is, and you can do this by dividing 150 by 100.
150/100= 1.5
As you're looking for 6.5%, you've got to multiply 1.5 by 6.5
1.5*6.5= 9.75
You've then got to add 9.75 and 150 together
150+9.75= $159.75
Therefore, after the sales tax, the cost of the necklace is $159.75
Hope this helps :)
Answer:
x=4
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Step 1</u>:-
given the lengths of two sides of a right angle are represented by 2x and 3(x+1) and longest side is 17 units.
AB = 2x and BC = 3(x+1) and longest side AC= 17
by using Pythagoras theorem

<u>step 2:-</u>
The hypotenuse is longest side is AC = 17 units
(17)^2 = 4x^2 +9(X+1)^2
on simplification, we will use formula

289 = 4x^2 +9(x^2+2x+1)

finding factors 70 X 52 = 3640


Taking common , we get
13x(x-4)+70(x-4)=0
x-4=0 and 13x+70=0
x=4 and 
x=4 and 
we can not choose negative value so x value is 4
Final answer:- x = 4
<u>verification:-</u>
<u></u>
<u></u>
289 = 4(4)^2+9(4+1)^2
289 = 64 +9(25)
289=289
