Answer:

C) 3.9425 × 10^-5

Step-by-step explanation:

Okay, first the problem does look really weird, but it looks like a scientific notation question and the answer choices pretty much confirms this. For scientific notation the number is written with two parts, the front part is a number between 1 and 10 (not including 10) so it can be 1.2 or 3.56 or 9.289 and the second part is a 10 raised up to a power. So a whole entire number in scientific notation is something like 9.5 × 10^-2 SO, in your question, there is a weird notation being used which has the front number and the big E and then the exponent part that should be set up on the 10.

Your question:

(9.5×10^-2)times(4.15×10^-4)

in normal numbers is:

0.095 × 0.000415

You can totally use a calculator for this multiplication (it is, in fact just two numbers being multiplied together) Some calculators have an EE button. Or just use lots of parentheses and an exponent button like ^ or "x to the y power" button.

Anyway, your question will yield 3.9425 × 10^-5

After school Philippe spent 1 3/4 hours at baseball practice, 2 1/4 hours on homework, and 1/4 hour getting ready for bed. About

marshall27 [118]

Answer:

4 hours. 1 3/4 is about 2, and 2 1/4 rounds to 2. 1/4 would round to 0, but it would not affect the estimate's accuracy much because we rounded up by 1/4 on 1 3/4 already. Philipe spent about 4 hours on activities.

Ou want to get an oil change every 4,000 miles. How many oil changes do you get in a year driving 1000 miles a month?

deff fn [24]

3.

1000 miles per month.
12 months in a year.
1000 × 12 = 12000 miles per year

Oil change every 4000 miles.
12000 ÷ 4000 = 3

Therefore 3 oil changes per year.

Tina is saving to buy a notebook computer. She has two options. The first option is to put $500 away initially and save $10 ever

Alexxandr [17]

Answer:

Tina would save the same amount using either option after 20 months.

With either option, Tina would save $700.

Step-by-step explanation:

This problem can be modeled by a first order equation:

Where Tina's saved money after n months is:

S(n) = S(0) + rn, where S(0) is the money put away initially and r is how much she saves every month.

The first option is to put $500 away initially and save $10 every month, so:
