Samuel is incorrect because he didn't subtract the power of the numbers.

<h3>How many more rod cells are there?</h3>

The number of rod and cone cells in the human eye is written in scientific notation. Scientific notation is used in expressing large numbers in smaller numbers. To write a number in scientific notation, the number is written as a decimal number, between 1 and 10 and multiplied by a power of 10. For example, 1 x 10² is equivalent to 100

(9.1 x 10^7) - (4.5 x 10^6)

= (9.1 - 4.5) x 10^(7 - 6)

4.6 x 10 = 46

ololo11 [35]

Answer:

$516.48

Step-by-step explanation:

Base salary is what Pete will be paid whether he makes a sale or not.

Sales commission is the percentage of the value of the sale that Pete makes which is added to his base salary.

Base salary = $400

Total sales last week = $1456

Commission = 8% of total sales

Commission of last week = 8% of $1456

= 0.08*1456 = $116.48

Gross salary = base salary + commission

= 400 + 116.48

= $516.48

zvonat [6]

Answer: Mark up percent = 20%

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Cost price of each T-shirt = $5.00

Amount required = $450

Total students = 75

Market price for each T-shirt to raise the required amount = (Amount required ) ÷ 75

= $450 ÷ 75

= $ 6

Mark up percent = \dfrac{\text{Market price - Cost price}}{\text{Cost price}}\times100

=\dfrac{6-5}{5}\times100\\\\=20\%

Hence, Mark up percent = 20%

Rochelle can run 800 meters in 5 minut
Semmy [17]
To find how much she can run in one minute we’re going to divide 800 by 5, to which we get 160.

She runs 160 meters in one minute.

We want to know how many meters she can run in 9 minutes.

160 * 9 = 1,440

She can run 1,440 meters in 9 minutes.
