Answer:

  $180

Step-by-step explanation:

The relationship between the prices is said to be ...

  (amount you pay) = 2/3 × (original price)

To find the original price, multiply the equation by the reciprocal of the coefficient of the (original price).

  (3/2)×(amount you pay) = (3/2)(2/3)(original price) = (original price)

  (3/2)×$120 = original price = $180

How should the decimal point in 34.05 be moved to determine the product 34.05×106 ?
r-ruslan [8.4K]

Answer: Six places to the right

Step-by-step explanation:

For this exercise it is important to remember that. by definition, the exponent of a number indicates the number of times you must use the same factor to multiply.

Given:

b^n

"b" is the base and "n" is the exponent.

In this case, you have the following multiplication provided in the exercise:

34.05*10^6

Notice that the base 10 has an exponent 6. This indicates the following:

10^6=10*10*10*10*10*10=1,000,000

By definition, moving the decimal point 6 places to the right (because there are six zeros), is the same as multiplying the decimal number 34.05 by 1,000,000.

  Therefore, based on the explained, when you move the decimal point six places to the right, you get the following product.

34.05*10^6=34,050,000
