Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First convert km to meters

143000 km = 143,000,000m = 1.43*10^8 m

Now convert 10 billion to scientific notation1  00

10 billion = 1 * 10^10

What this means is that 1 * 10^10 meters in outer space = 1 meter for the scale model.

Now show what the ratio is for

1.43*10^8

========          Divide by the denominator

1 * 10^10

1.43 * 10^(8 - 10)

1.43 * 10 ^ - 2               meters

Answer: 0.0143m or B

The area of a rectangle is 66 ft2, and the length of the rectangle is 1 ft more than twice the width. Find the dimensions of the
umka21 [38]
This is probably way overcomplicated but i cant remember how to do it
w = n
l = 2n+1
w*l = 66
n(2n+1) = 66
2n^2 + n =66
2n^2 + n - 66 = 0
using quadratic equation

n = 11/2

width = 11/2 = 5.5
length = 11 + 1 = 12

NEED HELP NEED HELP please if you know show me how you got the answer
OLEGan [10]

Answer:

It says to Graph y = 1/2x - 4

So equation y = 1/2x - 4

this corresponds to slope intercept form which is y = mx + b

M = slope = rise / run

B =  y - intercept

First, start at the origin, (0,0)

Then go down 4, you should now be on the coordinate (0,4)

Now we need to use the slope.

The slope is 1 / 2, this means rise 1, run 2 (in this case 2 to the right because it is positive)

So, start at (0 , 4) and go up 1 unit then 2 to the right, then place a dot, keep repeating until you meet the end of the paper.

Then do the opposite so that you can graph the other side.

Down 1 and 2 to the left.
