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.
Answer:
(-10, 0) and (0,-5)
Step-by-step explanation:
For the function 
find x-intercept and y-intercept:
1. when y=0, then
2. when x=0, then
You get two points (-10, 0) and (0,-5). Plot them on the coordinate plane and connect, obtained line is the graph of the linear function 
Answer:
$16,150
Step-by-step explanation:
hope this helps with the work
We can let
a = 1/(x-1)
b = 1/(y+2)
and rewrite the equations as
2a - b = 10
a + 3b = -9
Using the first to write an expression for b, we get
b = 2a - 10
Substituting this into the second equation gives
a + 3(2a -10) = -9
7a -30 = -9 . . . . . . . . simplify
7a = 21 . . . . . . . . . . .add 30
a = 3
b = 2·3 - 10 = -4
Now, we can find x and y.
3 = 1/(x -1)
x - 1 = 1/3
x = 1 1/3 = 4/3
-4 = 1/(y +2)
y +2 = -1/4
y = -2 1/4 = -9/4
Then the desired sum is
x + y = 4/3 -9/4 = (16 -27)/12
x + y = -11/12
The appropriate choice is ..
c. -11/12
Answer:
lower than Amanda: 816 students
Step-by-step explanation:
An equivalent way in which to state this problem is: Find the area under the standard normal curve to the left (below) 940.
Most modern calculators have built in distribution functions.
In this case I entered the single command normalcdf(-1000,940, 850, 100)
and obtained 0.816.
In this particular situation, this means that 0.816(1000 students) scored lower than Amanda: 816 students.
