In scientific notation :
32 million miles is 3.2 x 10 ^7 miles.
Answer:
12%
Step-by-step explanation:
Percentage increase of something is often represented in a formula of a format like this:
X=Ar^t
Where X represents the total amount after t years.
A or 87000 in this case represents the starting value, which is this case is the starting population of the town. r or 1.12 represents the percentage increase, if it increases by 12% than the next year has 1.12 times as many people as the previous year so this is represented by 1.12 rather than say 0.12 which would indicate a 88% decrease instead. t is the time, no. of years in this case, that has elapsed since 1996.
This formula basically means that a town population of 87000 increases by 12% for every year of time that elapses.

To round to the nearest ten, we will look at the number in the ones place, and determine if it is higher, lower, or equal to 5. In this case, 3 is less than 5, so we round down. This means that 483 rounded to the nearest ten is 480. :) I hope this helps you in the future! A common phrase you can think about is:
Four or less, give it a rest. 5 and above, give it a shove.
