Answer:
She earns $6.50 from the Smiths which is 25 cents more than she earns at the Nelsons.
Step-by-step explanation:
To solve this problem you must find the hourly rate she earns at the Smiths. This will allow you to compare to the hourly rate that is given for the Nelsons. To find the Smiths hourly rate divide $39 by the 6 hours she babysat there. This will have the hourly rate. 39/6=6.5. This means she earns $6.50 an hour for the Smiths. When comparing the rates it is clear that she earned 25 cents more at the Smiths.
It's a nonlinear because the x and y values are not increasing at the same ratio each time. This would be an example of a linear function:
x l 1 2 3 4 5 6
y l 3 6 9 12 15 18
As x increases by 1, y increases by a multiple of 3
If you are moving the decimal point to the left, the exponent is negative. If you move it to the right, the exponent is positive.
There is only one negative exponent here, and it is the first option.
So:
A number is being written in scientific notation. The student moves the decimal point to the left 3 places and A<span>. multiplies by 10^-3.</span>
