Answer:
$9$
Step-by-step explanation:
Given: Thea enters a positive integer into her calculator, then squares it, then presses the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key, then squares the result, then presses the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key again such that the calculator displays final number as $243$.
To find: number that Thea originally entered
Solution:
The final number is $243$.
As previously the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key was pressed,
the number before $243$ must be $324$.
As previously the number was squared, so the number before $324$ must be $18$.
As previously the $\textcolor{blue}{\bf\circledast}$ key was pressed,
the number before $18$ must be $81$
As previously the number was squared, so the number before $81$ must be $9$.
Answer:
420
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
The local rate for electrical service is 6 cents per kilowatt-hour.
We need to know how much money would be saved in a year by using a dishwasher 4times per week rather than 6 times per week
From the table:
The cost of using a dishwasher 4 times per week = $29
The cost of using a dishwasher 6 times per week = $44
So, the saving will be = 44 - 29 = 15
So, the answer will be $15
The answer is 16000000000.
Because you take the decimal and move it 10 times to the right.
