Answer:Concept Development: We have learned why scientific notation is indispensable in science. This means that we have to
learn how to compute and compare numbers in scientific notation. We have already done some computations, so we
are ready to take a closer look at comparing the size of different numbers.
Step-by-step explanation:There is a general principle that underlies the comparison of two numbers in scientific notation: Reduce everything
to whole numbers if possible. To this end, we recall two basic facts.
1. Inequality (A): Let and be numbers and let > . Then < if and only if < .
2. Comparison of whole numbers:
a. If two whole numbers have different numbers of digits, then the one with more digits is greater.
b. Suppose two whole numbers and have the same number of digits and, moreover, they agree digitby-digit (starting from the left) until the
th place. If the digit of in the ( + )
th place is greater than
the corresponding digit in , then > .
(-4,1) slope=3/5
Based on the Hypotenuse-LengthTheorem of Congruence (HL), the values of x and y that will make both right triangles congruent are:
Recall:
Thus, for both right triangles to be congruent, it means that their hypotenuse and one of their corresponding legs must be equal to each other.
Use this to create two equations and solve to get the value of x and y.

(eqn. 2).

Therefore, based on the Hypotenuse-LengthTheorem of Congruence (HL), the values of x and y that will make both right triangles congruent are:

Answer:
x = 8 and y = 4
Step-by-step explanation:
For congruency the hypotenuse and a leg must be congruent, that is
3y = x + 4 → (1) ( Equating the hypotenuse )
x = y + 4 → (2) ( equating corresponding legs )
Substitute x = y + 4 into (1)
3y = y + 4 + 4
3y = y + 8 ( subtract y from both sides )
2y = 8 ( divide both sides by 2 )
y = 4
Substitute y = 4 into (2)
x = 4 + 4 = 8
(9x2 + 8x) – (2x2 + 3x)
Answer:
(9x² + 8x) - (2x² + 3x)
= 7x² + 5x
Step-by-step explanation:
(9x² + 8x) - (2x² + 3x)
open the bracket
= 9x² + 8x - 2x² - 3x
collect like terms
= 9x² - 2x² + 8x - 3x
= 7x² + 5x
