Answer:

Since there are 4.5*10^2 grams of trash per day per person, we multiply that by 3.2*10^6 for everyone in the US and then multiply that by 365 to get how much in a year, which is 525600000000 or 5.256*10^11 (I think it's 11)

Answer:

1.44*10^9 in (g) scientific notation trash thrown

Step-by-step explanation:

(4.5 × 10² ) (3.2×10^6) = Decimal notation  450 * 3200000= 1440000000  Where Scientific Notation is (4.5 × 10² ) (3.2×10^6)  = 13.5+ (1/5* 4.5) =13.5+ 0.9= 14.4 as this is 100th we -1 to the powers after adding the as both inside brackets none outside= 2+ 6 = ^8 + ^1 = ^7 = 1.44*10^9 scientific notation

Graph the equation y=4x+1 by plotting points.
lidiya [134]

Look at the attached image (credit to Desmos graphing calculator)

To graph the equation y=4x+1, we just find two points that exist, plot them, and draw a straight line that goes through them.

Let's try x=0:

y=4(0)+1=1

One point on the line is (0,1)

Let's try x=1:

y=4(1)+1=5

Another point is (1,5).

Now, plot these two points and draw a line through them.

A food company originally sells cereal in boxes with dimensions 25 cm by 14 cm by 10 cm. To make more profit, the company decrea
hjlf

Answer:

1.75 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that the dimensions of the box as 25 cm by 14 cm by 10 cm.

Now, to increase the profit, the dimensions of the box by 'x' cm.

Thus, the new dimensions are (25-x) cm by (14-x) cm by (10-x) cm.

Further, it is given that the volume of the new box is 2,208 cm^{3}

As, Volume of the box = Length × Breadth × Height

i.e. 2208 = (25-x) × (14-x) × (10-x)

i.e. 2208 = (25-x) \times (140-24x-x^{2})

i.e. 2208=x^{3}-x^{2}-740x+3500

i.e. x^{3}-x^{2}-740x+1292=0

On solving this cubic equations, we get that, the solutions are x = 27.6, x = 1.75 and x = 26.8.

Since, the dimensions 25 cm by 14 cm by 10 cm are reduced by x cm.

Thus, if x = 27.6 or x = 26.8, then (10-x) = -17.6 or -16.8, which cannot be possible. So, x = 1.75 cm.

Hence, the dimensions were decreased by 1.75 cm.
