Patterns can be used to determine products of a number of a power of 10 by following it to obtain easily the answer. When you multiply a number by the power of 10 you just have to write the number then add the number of corresponding number of 0s to the end which will be the same number as the power used.

Hope this helped : )

Answer:

Patterns used to determine the product of a number and a power of 10 :

When we multiply a number by a positive exponent of 10 then the resultant number is obtained by putting 0's, equal to the exponent, after the number.

For example :

2 × 10 = 20

2 × 10² = 200,

2 × 10³ = 2000,

.......so on......

In other words, we add zeros as much as the power of 10 after the number in the resultant number.

Bryan’s monthly electric bill is determined by adding a flat administration fee to the product of the number of kilowatt hours o

Sophie [7]

We will form the equations for this problem:
(1) 1100*y + z = 113
(2) 1500*y + z = 153
z = ? Monthly administration fee is notated with z, and that is the this problem's question.
Number of kilowatt hours of electricity used are numbers 1100 and 1500 respectively.
Cost per kilowatt hour is notated with y, but its value is not asked in this math problem, but we can calculate it anyway.
The problem becomes two equations with two unknowns, it is a system, and can be solved with method of replacement:
(1) 1100*y + z = 113
(2) 1500*y + z = 153
----------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y [insert value of z (right side) into (2) equation instead of z]:
(2) 1500*y + (113 - 1100*y) = 153
-------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 1500*y + 113 - 1100*y = 153
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 400*y + 113 = 153
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 400*y = 153 - 113
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) 400*y = 40
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) y = 40/400
------------------------------------------------
(1) z = 113 - 1100*y
(2) y = 1/10
------------------------------------------------
if we insert the obtained value of y into (1) equation, we get the value of z:
(1) z = 113 - 1100*(1/10)
(1) z = 113 - 110
(1) z = 3 dollars is the monthly fee.

Zinaida [17]

Consider the ordering

... -2 < -1

Now consider the ordering of their absolute values:

... 1 < 2

Hopefully, you see that changing the sign reflects the sequence across the origin, so that the ordering is reversed when the signs are changed.
