Pluto is 5,560,000,000 years old. Estimate the age of Pluto by writing it in the form of x×10y years, where x and y are single-digit numbers.

James wants to promote his band on the internet. site a offers website hosting for $4.95 per month with a $49.95 startup fee. site b offers website hosting for $9.95 per month with no startup fee. for how many months would james need to keep the website for site a to be a better choice than site b? 1. define a variable for the situation. 2. write an inequality that represents the situation. 3.solve the inequality to find out how many months he needs to keep the website for site a to be less expensive than site b. 4. using words, describe how many months he needs to keep the website for site a to be less expensive than site b.

Arley is building a model of a city map. in one part of the city, three roads form a right triangle, which harley draws as triangle abc, with the following measures: m∠b=90° and m∠a=30°. in his scale model, the hypotenuse of triangle abc, ac¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯, has a length of 817−−√ cm. what is the value of a (the length of bc¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯)?

Use the formulas a = x 2 – y 2, b = 2xy, c = x 2 + y 2 to answer this question. one leg of a right triangle has length 11 and all sides are whole numbers. find the lengths of the other two sides. the other leg = a0 and the hypotenuse = a1
