Answer:

(4* 1) + (9 * 1/10) + (2 * 1/1000)

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the figure : 4.902

Writw the figure above in expanded form:

4.902

Using the place value indicators :

Unit___tenth___hundredth___thousandth

4______9_______0___________2

Unit:

4 × 1

After the decimal point :

Tenth :

9 × 1/10 =

Hundredth :

0 * 1/ 100

Thousandth:

2 * 1/1000

Hence :

(4* 1) + (9 * 1/10) + 0 + (2 * 1/1000)

A scientist running an experiment starts with 100 bacteria cells. These bacteria double their population every 15 hours. Find ho

IRISSAK [1]

<h2>Hello!</h2>

The answer is: 23.77 hours

$Total(t)=Start*2^\frac{t}{15}$

Where:

Total(t) is equal to the amount for a determined time (in hours)

<em>Start</em> is the original amount

<em>t </em>is the time in hours.

For example, it's known from the statement that the bacteria double their population every 15 hours, so it can be written like this:

$Total(15)=100*2^\frac{15}{15}=100*2^{1}=100*2=200$

To calculate how long it takes for the bacteria cells to increase to 300, we should do the following calculation:

$300=100*2^{\frac{t}{15} } } \\\frac{300}{100}=2^{\frac{t}{15} } }\\log(3)=log(2^{\frac{t}{15} })\\\\\\log(3)=\frac{t}{15}*log2\\t=\frac{log(3)}{log(2)} *15=23.77$

So, to know if we are right, let's replace 23.77 h in the equation:

Total(t)=100*2^\frac{23.77}{15}=299.94

and 299.94≅300

Have a nice day!

Jim's work evaluating 2 (three-fifths) cubed is shown below. 2 (three-fifths) cubed = 2 (StartFraction 3 cubed Over 5 EndFractio

Blizzard [7]

Answer:

$2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3})$ and not $2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5})$

Step-by-step explanation:

Jim's work evaluating $2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}$ is shown:

$2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5})=2(\frac{3X3X3}{5})=2(\frac{27}{5})=\frac{54}{5}$

If you look at the Second step, the exponent is taken over only the numerator. It should have been taken over both the numerator and denominator as shown below.

$2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3})$

The correct workings therefore is:

$2(\frac{3}{5}) ^{3}=2(\frac{3^3}{5^3})=2(\frac{3X3X3}{5X5X5})=2(\frac{27}{125})=\frac{54}{125}$

The amount of rhubarb in the original recipe is 3 1/2 cups. Using what you know of whole numbers and what you know of fractions,

Alexxx [7]

The easiest way, I think, is to convert the mixed number into an improper fraction, then multiply by 3.
3 1/2 = 7/2
7/2 · 3 = 21/2
now just change the improper fraction back to a mixed number by dividing and putting the remainder into fraction form
21/2 = 10 1/2

You could also multiply the whole number by 3 and the fraction by 3, ending up with 9 3/2, but then have to convert the improper fraction into a mixed number
3/2 = 1 1/2
then add the numbers together
9 + 1 1/2 = 10 1/2
either way works, whatever is easiest for you.

You buy a pair of jeans at a department store. Jeans 39.99 Discount -10.00 Subtotal 29.99 Sales tax 1.95 Total 31.94 a. What is

Mariana [72]

A)

if 39.99 is the 100%, what is 10 in percentage? well

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
39.99&100\\
10&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{39.99}{10}=\cfrac{100}{x}$

solve for "x".

b)

now, with the discount, the amount is 29.99, thus if 29.99 is the 100%, what is 1.95 from it in percentage?

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
29.99&100\\
1.95&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{29.99}{1.95}=\cfrac{100}{x}$

solve for "x".

c)

the original price is 39.99, the markup on that is 60%, how much is that?
well

$\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
39.99&100\\
x&60
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{39.99}{x}=\cfrac{100}{60}\implies 39.99\cdot 60=100x
\\\\\\
\cfrac{39.99\cdot 60}{100}=x\implies 23.994=x$

now, after the discount, the price is 29.99, how much is 23.994 in percentage of 29.99?

well $\bf \begin{array}{ccllll}
amount&\%\\
\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}&\text{\textemdash\textemdash\textemdash}\\
29.99&100\\
23.994&x
\end{array}\implies \cfrac{29.99}{23.994}=\cfrac{100}{x}$

solve for "x".
