I did say the answer is $35. Because, you should use the highest factor or whatever operation the problem is using, to find the answer. Not sure if it's some two-step problem....
4500 + 1.20x < 4.80x
4500 < 4.80x - 1.20x
4500 < 3.60x
4500/3.60 < x
1250 < x.......minimum number would be 1251
PART A:
Scientific notation is given by A×10ⁿ where A is any number in a unit and 'n' is an integer.
0.000025 = 2.5×10⁻⁵
PART B:
Diameter of grain of sand ÷ Diameter of human body average cell
(2×10⁻⁴) ÷ (1×10⁻⁵)
(2÷1) × (10⁻⁴÷10⁻⁵)
2 × (10⁻⁴ ⁻ ⁻⁵) = 2 × 10⁽⁻⁴⁺⁵⁾ = 2 × 10¹ = 20 times bigger
PART C:
The diameter of human body's average cell in nanometer
1 × 10⁻⁵ metre = 1 × 10⁻⁵ × 10⁹ = 1 × 10⁽⁻⁵⁺⁹⁾ = 1 × 10⁴ nanometer
PART D:
Smallest bacteria = 300 nanometer
300 nm = 300 ÷ 10⁹ = (3 × 10²) ÷ 10⁹ = 3 × (10²⁻⁹) = 3 × 10⁻⁷ meter
PART E:
Laws of exponents that are applied in scientific notation is
xᵇ × xᵃ = x⁽ᵇ⁺ᵃ⁾
xᵇ ÷ xᵃ = x⁽ᵇ⁻ᵃ⁾
Answer:
in confused on what the question is asking is it multiple questions
