Peter is writing a number in scientific notation. The number is grater that ten million and less that one hundred million. Which exponent will peter use?

 where 1 < a ≤ 9

The EXPONENT USED BY PETER is 7 in all the possible cases.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume the needed number is M.

Also, given:

The needed number is GREATER than 10 Million.

⇒ M  > 10 Million

⇒ M > 10,000,000

⇒ M >  ...... (1)

The needed number is SMALLER than 100 Million.

⇒ M  <  100 Million

⇒ M < 100,000,000

⇒ M  <    ...... (2)

Comparing (1) and (2) we can see that M can have more than 7 zeroes after 1 but LESS than 8 zeroes after 1.

So, the possible values of M can be:

 where 1 < a ≤ 9

So, the EXPONENT USED BY PETER is 7 in all the possible cases.

step-by-step explanation:

a drawing really does here:

so i draw the horizontal line y=2 and the vertical line x=-2 at this intersection i put b (this is where my right angle is going to be).   so point b is at (-2,2).   point a is 5 units long and is also on y=2 so this point has to be (3,2) or (-7,2) -doesn't matter i will go with (3,2).

now we know c is at (-2,y) we don't know the y yet bet we know that c is on x=-2.

we have the area of the triangle is .5bh=12.5

we know the base length is 5 (ab)

we have the height is (2-y) if you look at your

plug in

.5(5)(2-y)=12.5

solve for y to get the y-coordinate for c

2.5(2-y)=12.5

divide both sides by 2.5 giving:

2-y=5

now subtract 2 on both sides

-y=3

y=-3
