The line segment that connects the two vertices of a hyperbola is called the axis. a. transverse b. minor c. major

A. Transverse.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given a statement and we are supposed to choose the correct option to fill in the blank for our given statement.

Statement: The line segment that connects the two vertices of a hyperbola is called the axis.

Since we know that the endpoints of transverse axis are known as the vertices of hyperbola, so the line segment that connects the two vertices of a hyperbola is called the transverse axis.

Therefore, option A is the correct choice.

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.
