Answer:

  • Find the place value of the most significant digit
  • Write the number using that place value as a multiplier
  • 1×10^-9

Step-by-step explanation:

It helps immensely if you understand how place value works in a decimal number system. It also helps if you understand the rules of exponents.

Around the decimal point, the place values are ...

  (hundreds) (tens) (ones) . (tenths) (hundredths) (thousandths)

Each location to the right of any given place has a place value that is 1/10 of the one to its left. When there get to be many factors of 10, it is useful to use exponents to represent the repeated multiplication.

  1/10 = 1/10^1

  1/100 = 1/10^2

  1/1000 = 1/10^3

If you count carefully, you find the the digit 1 in your number is in the 9th place to the right of the decimal point, so its multiplier is 1/10^9. That is ...

  0.000000001 = 1/10^9

By the rules of exponents, a positive exponent in the denominator is the same as its opposite exponent in the numerator, so this number can also be written as ...

  0.000000001 = 1×10^-9 . . . . scientific notation

Got you. So we will use the basic formula for the area of a rectangle and insert variable values. (^_^)

Area= Width(Height)   ----------- Insert values of width and height [width = (x-1)
, height = (x+9)]

Area= (x-1)(x+9) )   -------------- Then expand if needed?
       = x² +8x -9

Oliver had m dollars to spend on a backpack for the new school year. The expression below represents the amount of money he had
xxMikexx [17]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Y is the amount of back pack

The total amount is represented by m

If Y is the cost of back pack purchased by Oliver, then 0.7 Y is the tax applicable on the purchase of back pack

Hence, the remaining cost would be total amount with Oliver minus the cost of back pack and the tax applicable on the purchase of back pack

Remaining cost  = m - (y + 0.07y)

Hence, option A is correct
