We use scientific notation to make it easier to represent numbers very small to very large. EX: 6,000 Scientific Notation: 6^3

Answer:
Correct cost for the cell phone monthly plan = 54.2$
Explanation:
Price for monthly plan = 58.95$
Discount = 4.75 $
New cost found out by Sam = 11.45$
Discount considered by Sam = 58.95 - 11.45 = 47.5$
So, Instead of considering discount amount of 4.75$ Sam accidentally considered 47.5$, so he got 11.45$ as new cost for the cell phone plan.
Actual cost = 58.95 - 4.75 = 54.2$
Correct cost for the cell phone monthly plan = 54.2$
