On the way home from visiting his family, Vincent's plane cruised at an altitude of 3.2 x 104 feet. He had heard that a man named Felix
Baumgartner skydived from an altitude of 1.28 x 10$ feet. Vincent wants to know how much higher Felix went on his skydiving trip.

write the cruising altitude of vincent’s plane in standard notation

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Vincent’s plane is cruising at an altitude of 3.2 × 10^4 feet.

Convert the number to standard notation.

3.2 × 10^4 feet  

=

3.2 • 10,000 feet

=

32,000 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

This is the sample answer from Edmentum.

Answer 2

Answer:

Question 1 part a =

Vincent’s plane is cruising at an altitude of 3.2 × 104 feet.

Convert the number to standard notation.

3.2 × 104 feet  

= 3.2 • 10,000 feet

= 32,000 feet

Part b =

Felix’s skydiving altitude is 1.28 × 105 feet.

Convert the number to standard notation.

1.28 × 105 feet  

= 1.28 • 100,000

= 128,000 feet

Part c =

Subtract the two altitudes to find the difference.

128,000 feet − 32,000 feet = 96,000 feet

The difference of their altitudes is 96,000 feet.

Part d =

The difference of the altitudes is 96,000 feet.

Covert 96,000 to scientific notation:

96,000 feet = 9.6 × 104 feet

Question 2 part a  =

Vincent’s plane’s altitude is 3.2 x 10^4 feet.

Felix’s skydiving altitude is 1.28 x 10^5 feet.

Transform 3.2 x 10^4  so its exponent matches the power of 10 in 1.28 x 10^5.

To do so, multiply and divide the number by 10.

3.2 x 10^4 = 10/10 x 3.2 x 10^4

                 = 3.2/10 x 10^4 x 10

                 = 0.32 x 10^5

Part b =

Calculate the difference of the two altitudes:

1.28 × 105 – 0.32 × 105

=  (1.28 – 0.32) • 105

= 0.96 • 105

The difference of their altitudes is 0.96 •105 feet.

Part c =

The difference of Vincent’s and Felix’s altitudes is 0.96 x 10^5 feet.

To convert the answer to scientific notation, multiply and divide the number by 10.

0.96 x 10^5 = 10/10 x 0.96 x 10^5

                   = (0.96 x 10) x (10^5 x 10^-1)

                   = 9.6 x 10^4 feet

In scientific notation, the difference of Vincent’s and Felix’s altitudes is 9.6 x 10^4 feet.

Question 3 =

The altitudes are the same. That means you can subtract numbers given in scientific notation using either of two methods: convert them to standard notation and then perform the subtraction, or subtract the numbers in scientific notation without converting them to standard notation.

Step-by-step explanation:

Your answer is in bold. All edmentum answers :)

Hope this helps someone!

Answers

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Use Pythagorean theorem,

Base² + altitude² = hypotenuse²

15² +  altitude²  = 17²

225 +  altitude²  = 289

             altitude² = 289 - 225

             altitude² = 64

              altitude² = 8²

             altitude   = √8²

 altitude  = 8

P = 8 + 15 + 17 =  40 units

[tex]A= \frac{1}{2}*base * height\\\\ = \frac{1}{2}* 15 * 8\\\\= 15 * 4\\\\= 60 sq. units[/tex]

Which expression fits this description? • The expression is the quotient of two quantities. • The numerator of the expression is the product of 5 and the sum of x and y. • The denominator is the product of negative 8 and x.

Answers

Answer:

[tex]\frac{5(x+y)}{-8x}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

It is a fraction that usually has a numerator and denominator

the numerator is the number on top while the denominator is the number below

[tex]\frac{a}{b}[/tex]

In the above fraction, a is the numerator while b is the denominator

Numerator =5 × ( x + y)

Denominator = -8x ( negative means there is a negative sign before 8)

( product means multiplication)

Dave buys a goat and sheep for a total price of £120 as is surprised to find that the goat was twice the price of the sheep..

He made twice as much profit on the sheep as he did on the goat having sold both for a combined price of £180.

What is the percentage profit on the sheep?

Answers

Answer:

Let's define:

G = cost of a goat

S = cost of a sheep.

We know that the total cost for a goat and a sheep is £120, then:

S + G = £120

And the cost of the goat is twice the price of the sheep, then:

G = 2*S

To solve this system, we can just replace the second equation into the first one, then we get:

S + (2*S) =  £120

3*S =  £120

S =  £120/3 =  £40

This means that each sheep costs  £40

And the cost of a goat is:

G = 2* £40 =  £80.

Now we know that he sold both of them, where:

s = price of the sheep

g = price of the goat.

We know that he sold both of them for £180, then:

s + g = £180

And the profit of the sheep is twice the profit of the goat, then:

(s - S) = 2*(g - G)

(s -  £40) = 2*(g -  £80)

s  -  £40 = 2*g -  £160

Then we have a system of equations:

s + g = £180

s  -  £40 = 2*g -  £160

To solve this, we first could isolate g in the first equation:

g = £180 - s

Replacing this in the other equation we get:

s - £40 = 2*( £180 - s) -  £160

s - £40 = £360 - 2*s - £160

s - £40 = £200 - 2*s

s + 2*s = £200 - £40 = £160

3*s = £160

s = £160/3 = £53.33

Then the percentage profit for the sheep is:

percentage profit = (s/S)*100% = (£53.33/£40)*100% = 133.3%

Then the percentae profit is 33.3%, which means that the sheep was sold at 133.3% of its original cost, leaving a profit of 33.3% of its original cost.

Heather has divided $5600 between two investments, one paying 9% the other paying 5%. If the return investment is $396, how much does she have in each investment?

Answers

Answer:

x = 2700 y=2900

Step-by-step explanation:

x+y = 5600

5/100 x + 9/100 y = 396

x+y=5600

5x+9y=39600

5x+5y = 28000

5x+9y=39600

-4y = -11600

y= 2900

x = 5600-2900 = 2700

0.9x. +0.6(5600-x)=396
9x + 6 (5600-x) =39600
9x + 33,600 - 6 = 39600
3x = 6000
X = $2000




So 2000 invested at 9% and 3000 invested at 5%


09(2000) + .05(3000) = 3300

So, if the angle shown, one of them is 70. the other is 110, because line is 180 degress, 180-70 = 110. C is 110. But, we need to find B. 13x + 6 must also be 70 degrees. 70-6 = 64. 64/13 = about 5. A is 100. The inner angles are 70+70+N. Angles in triangle are 180, so N is 180-70-70, which is 180-140. The B is 40 degrees.
