Answer:   $ 0.88

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : Jennifer buys school supplies for $12.16.

i.e. Total sales = $12.16

The sales tax = 7.25%  = 0.0725 [We divide percent by 100 to convert it into decimal]

Then , the amount of tax for Jennifer’s purchases=  (Sales tax) x (Total sales)

= (0.0725) x ($12.16)

= $0.8816≈ $ 0.88  [Round off to the nearest cent]

Hence, the amount of tax for Jennifer’s purchases is  $ 0.88.

Step-by-step explanation:

a) 1.16× 10^-6

standard form should be less than 10. therefore, count decimal places from where the decimal point is located to the right until you reach a number less than 10 ....count the number of shifts in the above is 6 shifts to the right. when moving to the right, power will be negative.(-6)

1.157/1.16 ×10^-6

b) 6.79 × 10^10

67890000000....count till a number less than 10.there will be 10 shifts to the left. the 10 will be your power,(positive) since u r moving to the left exponent is positive

6.789/6.79 × 10^10
