Answer:
43,000: 4.3×10^4
0.0072: 7.2×10^-3
0.0000901: 9.01×10^-5
Step-by-step explanation:
scientific notation: a×10^b, where should be 0<a<10
Step 1. Count the zeros
Step 2. Look at the number left, and determine whether or not it fits in the range of [a]. If not, we divide or multiply 10 to get it fit
------------------------
43,000: 4.3×10^4 (since 43 does not fit, we divide by 10 to get it fit)
0.0072: 7.2×10^-3 (since 0.72 does not fit, we multiply 10 to get it fit)
0.0000901: 9.01×10^-5 (since 0.901 does not fit, we multiply 10 to get it fit)
Hope this helps!! :)

Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x represent the amount of medical bills that Giselle has to pay.
Assume she has over $160 in bills,
it means that
x > 160
Under plan A, Giselle would have to pay the first $110 of her medical bills, plus 35% of the rest. Therefore, she will have to pay for
35/100 × (x - 110) = 0.35(x - 110)
Under plan B, Giselle would pay the first $160, but only 20% of the rest. Therefore, she will have to pay for
20/100 × (x - 160) = 0.2(x - 160)
Therefore, the amount of medical bills that plan B will save is
0.35(x - 110) - 0.2(x - 160) = 0.35x - 38.5 - 0.2x + 32
0.15x + 6.5
Substituting x = 160 into 0.15x + 6.5, it becomes
0.15 × 160 + 6.5 = $30.5
Total bills would be 160 + 30.5 = 190.5
Therefore, Giselle would save $30.5 with plan B if she had more than $190.5 in bills.
