Let's break it down into something more simple:
What's 10 times 10? 100
What's 10 times 10 times 10? 1000
Do you see a pattern? (Cool trick - The number of 10s match the number of 0s in the answer)
We have seven 0s in our answer, so let's check:
10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 x 10 = 10,000,000
An exponent tells us that we're multiplying the big number by itself however many times the little number in the corner tells us.
So if we multiply 10 by itself 7 times (what we did above), then our answer will be 10 to the power of 7, or 
. This is equal to 10,000,000.
False is the correct answer
Jackie wants to keep her total work time <em>under </em>20 hours, so we can set up a rough inequality right away:
(work time in hours) < 20
Now, it's going to take here 1/2 = 0.5 hours to finish each necklace, an 1 hour to finish each bracelet, so if she's making x necklaces, it'll take her 0.5x hours to make all of them, and if she's making y bracelets, it'll take her 1y = y hours to finish those. Putting the two together, it'll take her 0.5x + y hours altogether to make the necklaces and bracelets. Putting that together with our first inequality, we get the final inequality
0.5x + y < 20

Answer:
(b) Hiking 10 feet due north, then hiking 10 feet due south
Step-by-step explanation:
Any pair of numbers that totals zero will be a pair of opposites. The offered choices are ...
+6 -4 = 2 . . . not zero
+10 -10 = 0
+2 -3 = -1 . . . not zero
+5 -3 = 2 . . . not zero
Hiking 10 feet due north, then hiking 10 feet due south is a situation involving opposite numbers adding up to zero.
