Let's convert this fraction to an equal fraction which holds a denominator of 100, since it is a power of 10.
Since the denominator can be multiplied by 5 to achieve 100, we can multiply the entire fraction by 5 to create an equivalent fraction that has a denominator of 100:
17/20 = (17*5)/(20*5) = 85/100
To obtain a decimal from this fraction, take the numerator and move its decimal one place to the left for every 0 in the denominator. Since our denominator has two zeros, we will need to move the decimal place on the 85 two places to the left.
This gives us an answer of .85, which can also be expressed as 0.85.
The linear model for the data is expressed as: R = 20p - 160.
<h3>How to Write a Linear Model?</h3>
Using two pairs of values from the table values, say, (32, 480) and (33, 500), find the unit rate (m).
Unit rate (m) = (500 - 480)/(33 - 32) = 20/1
Unit rate (m) = 20.
Substitute (p, R) = (32, 480) and m = 20 into R = mp + b to find b
480 = 20(32) + b
480 = 640 + b
480 - 640 = b
b = -160
To write the linear model, substitute m = 20 and b = -160 into R = mp + b:
R = 20p - 160

487.9573 * 1000 = 487947.30
As you can see, the first number has a decimal point, and the second number is 1000. You can drop the 0s in the 1000 leaving 1 to multiply with the first number. Simply move the decimal point to the right based on the number of 0s there are on the second number.
Since, 1000 has three 0s. Move the decimal point 3 times to the right of the number. So, from 487.9573 to 487957.3
If the function is division but the numbers are the same, you must move the decimal point to the left.
Answer:
45.2 × 10⁰ = 45.2 (a⁰ = 1 )
45.2 × 10¹ = 452
45.2 × 10² = 4520
45.2 × 10³ = 45200
