A 747 airplane weighs about 600,000 pounds. It can also be expressed as approximately 3 times 10 Superscript n tons. If there are 2,000 pounds in 1 ton, which is the most reasonable value of n? –2 –1 2 4

n=2

Step-by-step explanation:

2000 pounds = 1 ton 600000 pounds = X tons Hence X tons = (600000 x 1) ÷ 2000 = 300 tons 3 x 10ⁿ = 300 Hence 3 x 10ⁿ = 3 x 10² Hence n= 2

24 units

step-by-step explanation:

given that there are two triangles j'k'l' and jkl>

the former is got by dilating the second one.

when drawn on a grid, (graph paper) coordinates of vertices of first triangle is

(6,12)j, (9,6)k and (12,9)l

side jk has length = distance between j and k

=

side j'k'=distance between j' and k'

=

ie j'k'l' has sides 1/3 of that of corresponding sides of jkl.

hence scale factor of 1/3 is used to get j'k'l'from jkl
