Can some one help please

Step-by-step explanation:

36,070 = 3.607 · 10⁴ ≈ 4 · 10⁴

29,029 = 2.9029 · 10⁴ ≈ 3 · 10⁴

Let's how manytimes greater the distance to the bottom of Challenger Deep is than the distance to the top of Mount Everest:

C

Step-by-step explanation:

First, the question is asking how many times greater the distance to the Challenger Deep is compared to Mount Everest. This means that the Challenger Deep will be on top, with the distance to Mount Everest on the bottom.

Next, we can see that in our answers, we are only given one significant digit. This means that we have to round our original numbers to the nearest significant digit and work from there. For Challenger Deep, 36,070 must be rounded to the nearest ten thousandth as it is in the ten thousands. Therefore, it must be rounded to 40,000 or 30,000. As 36,070 is closer to 40,000 than 30,000 (we can tell this because the second number, 6, is greater than 5, so we round up), we can represent this as 40,000. For Mount Everest, we can round 29,029 to either 20,000 or 30,000. 30,000 is the appropriate choice here because 9, the second number, is greater than 5.

Therefore, our ratio is now 40,000 / 30,000 . Our answers are written in scientific notation, so we must convert our numbers to those values.

Let's start with 40,000 . Our one significant digit is 4, so we can write this as 4 * something. For each number in 10 to the power of x (x is a placeholder value), we add x amount of zeros. For example, for 4 * 10², we add 2 zeros, making it 400. There are 4 zeros here, so to write this in scientific notation, we have 4 * 10^4

Similarly, for 30,000 , we can write this as 3 * 10^4 as there are 4 zeros.

Our ratio is thus 40,000 = 4*10^4 , which is the Challenger Deep value rounded, over 30,000 = 3 * 10^4, which is the Mount Everest value rounded. We can write this as , or C
