1. C.
The rule of powers is that when a parenthesis is raised to a power, you multiply the two numbers. Since it is being raised to the second power, it needs to have a 10 in the parenthesis. That would make 20.
2. B
Firstly 10^2 = 100, so we know that the number must be 10. That leaves us with just A and B. Then we know the same thing from the previous equation, that they need to be multiplied together.

Answer: 2.4 pounds per dollar</h3>
Explanation:
We can set up the ratio
12 pounds : 5 dollars
Then divide both parts of that ratio by 5 so that the "5 dollars" becomes "1 dollar"
The ratio 12 pounds : 5 dollars is equivalent to 2.4 pounds : 1 dollar
Answer: (m-21)(m+1)
Step-by-step explanation:
To factor this trinomial, find two numbers that multiply to -21 and add to -20:
(-21)(1)=-21
-21+1=-20
They are -21 and 1.
Add -21 and 1 to m to get both factors:
(m+(-21)) and (m+1)
(m-21) and (m+1)
Multiply them to get the answer:
(m-21)(m+1)
Answer:
Jana had 8 oranges, and Jordan had 15 oranges.
Step-by-step explanation:
First, identify what you know:
1) In total, Jana and Jordan had 23 oranges.
2) Jana had 7 less oranges than Jordan.
We can create a formula, where x equals the number of oranges Jana has.
23 = x + (x + 7)
16 = x + x (subtracted 7 from both sides)
x = 8 (divided both sides by 2)
So, now we know Jana had 8 oranges, which is 7 less than Jordan.
8 + 7 = ?
? = 15
Jana had 8 oranges, while Jordan had 15, for a total of 23 oranges.
