1 answer:
From the information given,
x represents number of small boxes while y represents number of large boxes.
If each small box can hold 6 books and each large box can hold 10 books, it means that the expression for the number of books that x small boxes and y large boxes can hold is
6x + 10y
If James can pack up to 110 books, it means that the number of books that he can pack is less than or equal to 110. The inequality representing this scenario is
6x + 10y ≤ 110
10y ≤ - 6x + 110
Dividing both sides of the equation by 10, we have
y ≤ - 6x/10 + 110/10
y ≤ - 3x/5 + 11
The graph is shown below
The inequality that represents this sitaution is 6x + 10y ≤ 110
The graph of the inequality wil have solid boundary at y = - 3x/5 + 11
and will be shaded below the line.

Answer:
7.789×10^-2 = 0.07789 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Your calculator can find the difference of the two given diameters and express it in any format you like.
The attached image of a calculator display shows the difference of the cell diameters is 0.07789 = 7.789×10^-2 cm.
__
The difference of two numbers with different exponents is found by first adjusting the exponents so they are the same. Here, we choose to adjust both numbers so they have the highest exponent value.
8.83×10^-2 - 6.01×10^-3
= 8.39×10^-2 - 0.601×10^-2 = (8.39 -0.601)×10^-2 = 7.789×10^-2
Alternatively, you can convert both numbers to standard form and do the subtraction that way.
8.83×10^-2 - 6.01×10^-3
= 0.0883 -0.00601 = 0.07789

The choice of exponent when computing the sum or difference of numbers in scientific notation is usefully informed by an estimate of the value of the sum or difference. A proper choice can avoid the need to adjust the exponent of the result of the operation. Here, we see the subtraction will change the larger value by less than 10%, so the exponent of the result in scientific notation will be that of the larger value (-2).
