Answer:
x = 19
Step-by-step explanation:
3(x - 9) = 30
Divide both sides by 3 to isolate the binomial.
x - 9 = 10
Add 9 to both sides to isolate x.
x = 19
Check your answer by plugging x = 19 back into the equation.
3(x - 9) = 30
3(19 - 9) = 30
Subtract.
3(10) = 30
Multiply.
30 = 30
Your answer is correct.
Hope this helps!
Answer:
-11/12
Step-by-step explanation:
Multiply the weight in tonnes by the conversion factor ( 1 tonne = 1000 kg) to get the weight in kg's:
170 tonnes x 1000 = 170,000
Now convert to scientific notation, by moving the decimal point to have only 1 digit to the left of the decimal.
To do this, you would need to move the decimal 5 places to the left to get 1.70000
Now remove the 0's and multiply the number by 10 raised to the number of paces the decimal was moved to get:
1.7 x 10^5 kg's.
