Question 1:
<h3>Answer: The number does <u>not</u> change</h3>Removing the zero from 0.76 leads to .76 which is the same as before. Both lead to in scientific notation.
Personally I prefer the zero up front to make the decimal point stand out easier. Of course it's just a preference, so its up to you to decide which you prefer.

Question 2:
<h3>Answer: Yes the number changes</h3>Taking the zero out of 10.25 leads to 1.25 which is definitely a different number (and smaller). Therefore, this zero is a significant digit compared to before.
For the red line, we have:
gradient (
) = 1/3
y-intercept = 3
Equation of straight line is given by
, where is the gradient and 
is where the line intercept the y-axis
So we have,
The shaded part is above the line, hence the first inequality is
The black line, we have
gradient,
= 3
y-intercept = -2
, rearranging gives
The shaded region is to the right of the line, hence the inequality is
Note: The first option should be the correct answer but the inequality sign for <span>y > 1/3x + 3 should be </span>
