In 1819, the United States purchased Florida from Spain for $5 X 106. The area of Florida is about 6.6 x 104 square miles.
Which key strokes on a calculator will give the cost the
United States paid for each square mile of Florida?

Option D. 5 EE 6 ÷ 6.6 EE 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Data obtained from the question include the following:

Area of land purchased = 6.6×10^4 square miles

Cost = $ 5×10^6

To determine the key strokes on a calculator which will give the cost the

United States paid for each square mile of Florida, let us calculate cost of 1 square mile.

This can be obtained as follow:

6.6×10^4 sq mile = $ 5×10^6

Therefore,

1 sq mile = $ 5×10^6 ÷ 6.6×10^4

In calculator, the key strokes will be:

5 EE 6 ÷ 6.6 EE 4

3/20

step-by-step explanation:

well, there are 20 outcomes, and 3 of them you want. so, 3/20

part a: triangles gcb and epb

part b. sides cg and rp are parallel by definition of parallelogram.

angles cgb and e are congruent by being alternate interior angles of parallel lines cut by a transversal. angles gbc and ebp are congruent because they are vertical angles. by aa similarity, the triangles are similar.

part c. since the triangles are similar, the ratios of the lengths of corresponding sides are equal.

calculation of be:

gb/be = cb/bp

(400 ft)/be = 300/200

(400 ft)/be = 3/2

3be = 2 * 400 ft

3be = 800 ft

be = 800/3 ft

calculation of pe:

gc/pe = cb/bp

(350 ft)/pe = 300/200

(350 ft)/pe = 3/2

3pe = 2 * 350 ft

3pe = 700 ft

pe = 700/3 ft
