a. Which state has the highest approximate population? Show work and/or Explain.


b. Find the sum of the approximate population of California and New York State.


c. Find the difference in the approximate population of Texas and New York State.

Answer 1

this is it

Explanation:

The population of California is approximately 38,040,000. The population of Texas is approximately 26.06 x 106 . The population of New York State is approximately 1.96 x 107

38,040,000 = 3.804 x 107

26.06 x 106 = 2.606 x 107

Which state has the highest approximate population? Show work and/or Explain.

NY: 1.96 x 107 = 19,600,000

TX: 2.606 x 107 = 26,060,000

CA: 3.804 x 107 = 38,040,000

California has the highest approximate population.

Find the sum of the approximate population of California and New York State.

(3.804 x 107) + (1.96 x 107) = (3.804 +1.96) x 107 = 5.764 x 107

Find the difference in the approximate population of Texas and New York State.

(2.606 x 107) - (1.96 x 107) = 0.646 x 107 = 6.46 x 106
