How many 3 yard straight pieces does vince need altogether to build three slides?​

7

Step-by-step explanation:

i took the test

vThe length of each slanted area for each slide is 15 yards. The length of each straight piece is 3 yards. So, the number of straight pieces needed for 15 yards is 15 ÷ 3, or 5. There are two slanted areas on each slide.

The number of straight pieces required for the flat area at the bottom of each slide is 3.

Adding them up, the total number of straight pieces required for one slide is 5 + 5 + 3, or 13. Because there are three slides, the total number of straight pieces needed is 13 • 3, or 39.

Vince needs 39 straight pieces to build the three slides.

Step-by-step explanation:

i believe the answer is letter c) 8

step-by-step explanation:

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.
