The radius of earth's orbit is approximately 15,000,000,000 meters. the radius of mercury's orbit is 5.8 × 109 meters. what is the difference of their radii?

a.4.3 × 1010

b.4.3 × 1011

c.9.2 × 109

d.9.2 × 1010

e.9.2 × 1011

15,000,000,000 = 15 × 10⁹

15 × 10⁹ - 5.8 × 10⁹ = 9.2 × 10⁹ m

C. 9.2 × 10⁹ m

d. millimeters per hour.

step-by-step explanation:

we are given that,

carlo used a rain gauge to measure the amount of water his lawn is receiving from the sprinklers.

since, according to the options, we see that,

water cannot be measured by 'miles per hour', 'meters per second' and 'grams per seconds'.

we get that, the water can be measured by 'millimeters per hour'.

hence, the appropriate rate for describing the amount of water is 'millimeters per hour'.
