Answer: The oldest one is Vredfort Crater.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is:

Chicxulub was formed 6.5x10^7 years ago.

Vredfort was formed 2x10^9 years ago.

Sudbury basin was formed 1.8x10^9 years ago.

Acraman crater was formed 5.8x10^8 years ago.

We want to find the oldest, so we need to find the larger number of the 4 we have.

For this, we need to see at the exponents, the larger the exponent the larger the number.

We have two with a 9 in the exponent:

Vredfort and Sudbury.

Now we look at the number, Vredfort has 2x10^9 and Sudbury has 1.8x10^9.

Both have the same exponent, but the scalar of Vredfort is larger (2 is greater than 1.8) so we have that Vredfort is older.

Vanna is saving for a trip. The hotel room will be $298.17 for 3 nights, and there will be additional fees. What is her daily co
docker41 [41]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Total cost for the three nights

Total_3 = $298.17 + 3*u

Where <em>u </em>represents the unknown fees for a single day

To find the daily cost, we divide the previous equation by three

Daily cost = ($298.17 + 3*u)/3

Daily cost = ($99.39 + u)

So, if we create an inequality for the daily cost

Let x = Daily cost

x > $99.39

She will pay more than $99.39 per night
