Answer:

4*10^{7} meters.

Step-by-step explanation:

This question can be solved using a rule of three.

If a one dollar bill is 0.0001 meters thick.

So 1 dollar is 10^{-5}m tall.

How tall is 4 trillion one dollar bills?

1 trillion = 10^{12}

So 4 trillion = 4*10^{12}

Then

1 dollar - 10^{-5}m

4*10^{12} - xm

x = 4*10^{12}*10^{-5} = 4*10^{7}

The answer is 4*10^{7} meters.

The ordered pairs model an exponential function, where w is the function name and t is the input variable. {(1, 60), (2, 240), (
alexandr1967 [171]
We are given the set of points
<span>{(1, 60), (2, 240), (3, 960), (4, 3840)}{(1, 60), (2, 240), (3, 960), (4, 3840)} 
If w is the function name and t is the input variable, then the equation has the form
w = k a^t
Plugging in any two of the points to solve for k and a
Choosing </span>(1, 60) and (2, 240)<span>
60 = k a
k = 60 / a

240 = k a^2

Substituting
240 = 60/a (a^2)
a = 4
and
k = 60 / 4 = 15

The function is 
w = 15 (4^t)</span>

the perimeter of an isosceles trapezoid is 62 cm. if three sides are equal in length and the fourth side is 10 cm longer, find t
Alja [10]
Perimeter = sum of all the sides
let x = one side
longer side = x + 10
Perimeter = x + x + x + x + 10
62 = 4x + 10
4x = 52
x = 13
Longer side = 23

Area = (10+23)x2/10
         = 6.6
