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

Natali [406]
Missing question: How many executives should be surveyed?

Solution:
Mean = 13 hours
SD = 3 hours
Confidence level = 95%

Mean viewing time within a quarter of an hour = 0.25 = 1.96*3/sqrt (N)

Where N = Sample population

N = {(1.96*3)/0.25}^2 = 553.19 ≈ 554

Therefore, 554 executives should be surveyed to yield such results.

The area of a playground is 336 yd2. The width of the playground is 5 yd longer than its length. Find the length and width of th
kondaur [170]
L=16
W=21

Set up a systems of equations: 
x=length 
y=width 

xy=336
x+5=y

Use substitution to solve: 
x(x+5)=336
x^2+5x=336 

Solve using factoring: 
x^2+5x-336=0
(x-16)(x+21)=0
x=16 and x= -21 
Since length can't be negative, l=16 

To find width, plug length into the first equation: 
(16)y=336
y=21 

So...
L=16
<span>W=21</span>
