Ricky is going on a road trip that is 100 kilometers. His average speed is 70 kilometers per hour. At that speed, he can drive 5 kilometers for every liter of fuel that he uses. Fuel costs .6 dollars per liter. What is the cost of the fuel for the trip?

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.

y -5 = (-1/4)(x + 8)

step-by-step explanation:

for certain loans like mortgage loans, lenders scrutinize your debt to income ratio when you are applying for credit because it them evaluate your ability to repay your debts.
