Answer:

If two numbers have the same exponent for 10, then compare the decimal numbers to determine the greater number. Sometimes you may have to compare two numbers, but only one of them is in scientific notation. In that case, convert the number that is not in scientific notation into scientific notation first. Then, compare the two numbers. Example 1 : Compare 5.62 x 10 6 and 7.39 x 10 5.

DerKrebs [107]
Let x be the number of children and t, the number of adults.

 x + y =153
5.2x + 8.4y = 1013.2


Solving those equation will give:

x = 85 tickets sold to the kids ( and 68 tickets for adults)

A man receives an annual increase of #30000 and after a period of 10 years service, the man has the salary of #1014. Find his in
Paladinen [302]

I think you intended writing #30 as his pay rise instead of #30000. I solved the problem using #30 as his annual pay rise.

Answer:

The man's initial salary was #714

Step-by-step explanation:

Extracting the key information from the question:

*** A man got a pay raise for 10 years.

*** His current salary is #1,014

*** He gets a pay raise of #30 annually.

*** We are simply required to calculate his initial salary before he started receiving pay rise.

Now, To calculate his initial salary before he started receiving pay rise, let us denote that initial salary that we are currently unaware of by "a".

Since his salary as at today is #1,014 and he has also received this pay rise of #30 for 10 years, we can calculate his initial salary before he started receiving pay rise every year with the following equation:

a + 30(10) = 1014

That is -

Initial salary + [pay rise × number of years] = current salary.

a + 30(10) = 1,014

a + 300 = 1014

a = 1014 - 300

a = #714

Therefore the man's initial salary was #714

Let ABCD be a parallelogram such that AB = 10 , BC = 14, and Angle A = 45. Find the area of the parallelogram. Please do not ans
Semenov [28]

Answer:

70√2  units²

Step-by-step explanation:

(see attached for reference notes on parallelograms)

we are given ABCD is a parallelogram where

Short Length, AB = 10 units

Long Length, BC = 14 units

Angle A = 45°

The area of the parallelogram is hence,  

= AB x BC sin 45°

= 10 x 14 x sin 45

= 140 sin 45°    (recall from special angles, that sin 45° = 1/√2)

= 140/√2   (remove radical from denominator by multiplying by √2/√2)

= (140/√2) x (√2/√2)

=70√2  units²

What is the solution to 0.4x - 4 < 2.4?
Blizzard [7]

Answer:

x=16

Step-by-step explanation:

Simplifying

0.4x + -4 = 2.4

Reorder the terms:

-4 + 0.4x = 2.4

Solving

-4 + 0.4x = 2.4

Solving for variable 'x'.

Move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

Add '4' to each side of the equation.

-4 + 4 + 0.4x = 2.4 + 4

Combine like terms: -4 + 4 = 0

0 + 0.4x = 2.4 + 4

0.4x = 2.4 + 4

Combine like terms: 2.4 + 4 = 6.4

0.4x = 6.4

Divide each side by '0.4'.

x = 16

Simplifying

x = 16
