Jed needs to estimate the value of 4.32*10^-4 / 8.71*10^-9 . which statements should he consider? check all that apply. 4.32/8.71 is approximately 2. 4.32/8.71 is approximately 0.5. the answer will be very small because -4-9=-13 . the number will be large because -)=5 he will need to rewrite the preliminary result in scientific notation. the number will be small because the exponent will be a fraction.

Let us first try to simplify (4.32 / 8.71)

On dividing we get 0.49

ON rounding off we get 0.5

So (4.32 / 8.71) is approximately 0.5.

In second part we have to apply property of division of exponents.

applying this for 10⁻⁴ and 10⁻⁹

We have ,

so it becomes 10⁵, the number will be large because -4-(-9)=5.

So the final answer in scientific notation is 0.5 * 10⁵

simplifying

5(x + -6) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

5(-6 + x) = 2(x + 3)

(-6 * 5 + x * 5) = 2(x + 3)

(-30 + 5x) = 2(x + 3)

reorder the terms:

-30 + 5x = 2(3 + x)

-30 + 5x = (3 * 2 + x * 2)

-30 + 5x = (6 + 2x)

solving

-30 + 5x = 6 + 2x

solving for variable 'x'.

move all terms containing x to the left, all other terms to the right.

add '-2x' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 5x + -2x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 5x + -2x = 3x

-30 + 3x = 6 + 2x + -2x

combine like terms: 2x + -2x = 0

-30 + 3x = 6 + 0

-30 + 3x = 6

add '30' to each side of the equation.

-30 + 30 + 3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: -30 + 30 = 0

0 + 3x = 6 + 30

3x = 6 + 30

combine like terms: 6 + 30 = 36

3x = 36

divide each side by '3'.

x = 12

simplifying

x = 12

this should .
