Place the following in order from least to greatest. 8,000,000 mm, 5 km, 7000,000 cm, 6,000 m

Answers

Answer: 5km, 6000m, 8,000,000 mm, 7000000 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that:

1km = 1,000,000mm

1m = 1000mm

1cm = 10mm

Therefore,

5 km = 5 × 1,000,000mm = 5,000,000mm

7000,000 cm = 7,000,000 × 10 = 70,000,000mm

6,000 m = 6000 × 1000 = 6,000,000mm

Therefore, from the least to the greatest will be:

5km, 6000m, 8,000,000 mm, 7000000 cm

A laptop computer is purchased for $2000. After each year, the resale value decreases by 25%. What will the resale value be after years?
Use the calculator provided and round your answer to the nearest dollar.

$[]

Answers

Answer:

2000? ... assume $2000

Resale Value = $2000*(1 - 0.25)t/yr

where: t = number of year after purchase

at t = 3 yr

Resale Value = $2000*(1 - 0.25)3 = $843.75

checking: at t = 0 $2000 (purchase price)

at t = 1 yr $2000 - 0.25*$2000 = $2000 - $500 = $1500

at t = 2 yr $1500 - 0.25*$1500 = $1500 - $375 = $1125

at t = 3 yr $1125 - 0.25*$1125 = $1125 - $281.25 = $843.75

Factor the polynomial expression x^4 + x^2 − 20.

Answers

(x+2)(x-2)(x^2+5)
Hope this helps

The factors of  polynomial expression x^4 + x^2 − 20 is [tex](x - \sqrt{5})(x + \sqrt{5})(x - i \sqrt{5})(x + i \sqrt{5})$[/tex].

We are given that;

The polynomial expression =[tex]x^4 + x^2 − 20.[/tex]

Now,

To factor a polynomial expression, we need to find the common factors of each term and then use the distributive property to write the expression as a product of two or more factors.

For example,[tex]x^4 + x^2 − 20[/tex] can be written as:

[tex]$x^4 + x^2 - 20 = x^2(x^2 + 1) - 20$[/tex]

We can use the difference of squares formula to factor x^2 + 1 and 20:

[tex]$x^2 + 1 = (x + i)(x - i)20 = (2 \sqrt{5})(2 \sqrt{5})[/tex]

where i is the imaginary unit such that i^2 = -1. Now, we can write the expression as:

[tex]$x^4 + x^2 - 20 = x^2(x + i)(x - i) - (2 \sqrt{5})(2 \sqrt{5})$[/tex]

We can use the difference of squares formula again to factor the whole expression:

[tex]$x^4 + x^2 - 20 = (x^2 - 2 \sqrt{5})(x^2 + 2 \sqrt{5})$[/tex]

we can still factor each factor further into prime factors. We have:

[tex]x^2 - 2 \sqrt{5} = (x - \sqrt{5})(x + \sqrt{5})$\\$x^2 + 2 \sqrt{5} = (x - i \sqrt{5})(x + i \sqrt{5})[/tex]

Therefore, by factorization answer will be [tex](x - \sqrt{5})(x + \sqrt{5})(x - i \sqrt{5})(x + i \sqrt{5})$[/tex]

y-5x-2 ... Show your work.
A) (-4,-22)
B) (4; 6)
C) (-4; 6)
D) (4;18)
no links and pls show ur work

Answers

I’m not sure if you mistyped but if you meant y=5x-2 then here is your answer:

So the equation is y=mx + b

-2 is your b meaning that it is your y intercept so you can plot it on the y axis (0,-2)

Then your slope is 5. Since your slope is positive, in order to go to the left side you can change both the denominator and numerator into negatives. So 5/1 = -5/-1

Slope = rise/run

So each time you go down 5, you go to the left once. So if you go to -4, then you will have to go down 4 times as well so 4 x 5 = 20, so you go down 20 points. You are already at (0,-2) so if you go down 20 points then you are at (-4,-22)

Therefore the correct answer is (-4,-22)

Classify the object with the given side lengths as acute, obtuse, right, or not a triangle.
16, 21, 28
Right
Acute
Obtuse
Not a triangle

Answers

Answer:

We have to first see that the given lengths makes a triangle or not by using a+b > c in which a,b and c are

length of sides of a triangle lets check out

16 + 21 = 37 > 28

21 + 28 = 49 > 16

16+ 28 = 44 > 21

As because the statement fits correct in the lengths given so its a triangle

So we can say that the triangle is scalene by means of measurements

but cant be a right angle as by taking the pythagorean triplet

= a^2 + b ^ 2 = c^2

lets see if a=16, b = 21 and c = 28

So a^2 + b^2

= 256 + 441

= 697

but c^2

= 28^2 = 784

As 441 =/= 784

So The triangle lengths cant be a right angled triangle

So 1/2 of possibility is the traingle acute and 1/2 of the possibilty that the triangle is obtuse

Now you can find the correct triangle on the basis of acute or obtuse angle by drawing with given length of sides of triangle

Hope it helps

Solid a is a right, rectangular prism, in other words is a box. The length and width are double to form solid b, but the heigth of solid a and solid b are the same. How would each quantity in solid a be changed to find the quantity in solid b

Answers

Answer:

The length and width dimensions of solid 'a' are multiplied by 2 while the height remains the same to get the representative quantity in solid, b

Step-by-step explanation:

The given parameters of solid 'a' are;

The shape of solid, a = Right, rectangular prism

Let 'l' represent the length of solid 'a', let 'w' represent the width of solid 'a' and let 'h' represent the height of solid 'a'

We have;

The length of solid, [tex]l_b[/tex] = 2·l

The width of solid, [tex]w_b[/tex] = 2·w

The height of solid, [tex]h_b[/tex] = h

Given that we have;

The length of solid, b = 2 × The length of solid, a

The width of solid, b = 2 × The width of solid, a

The height of solid, b = The height of solid, a

The dimensions of length and width of each quantity in solid 'a' will be multiplied by 2 to find the dimension of a similar quantity in solid 'b'

The change in volume from solid 'a' to solid 'b' is given as follows;

The volume of solid, 'a', Vₐ = l × w × h = l·w·h

The volume of solid, 'b', [tex]V_b[/tex] = 2·l × 2·w ×h = 4·l·w·h

[tex]V_b[/tex] = 4 × Vₐ

Therefore, the volume of each unit volume in solid 'a' is multiplied by 4 to get the volume of the image of the unit volume in solid 'b'

The cross sectional area of solid 'a', Aₐ = l × w

The cross sectional area of solid 'b', [tex]A_b[/tex] = 2·l × 2·w = 4·l·w

[tex]A_b[/tex] = 4 × Aₐ

The cross sectional area of each unit of solid 'a' is multiplied by 4 to get the image of the unit cross sectional area in solid 'b'.

Therefore;

The change in the height and width of of solid 'b' is equal to a change in twice the height and width of solid 'a' at a given height, 'h'

The relationships are;

[tex]l_b[/tex] = 2·l, [tex]w_b[/tex] = 2·w, [tex]h_b[/tex] = h
