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.
You could four times because there are four letters in the word cube, so there are only four possible ways you could spell it.
Hope this helps:)

Answer:
33 1/3 percent smaller
Step-by-step explanation:
The number a exceeds the number b by 50 percent.
a = b + b*.5
a = b(1.5)
Divide by 1.5
a/1.5 = b
2/3a =b
We want to find (a-b)/a to find the percent decrease
(a-2/3a)/a *100percent
(1/3a)/a* 100 percent
1/3 * 100 percent
33 1/3 percent smaller
