List the following numbers in order from least to greatest. a) 3.5× 10/3 b) 3.5× 10-2 c) 5.3 × 10/3

B, A, C

Step-by-step explanation:

This is scientific notation. The numbers can be ordered least to greatest by looking at their digits and exponents. Since a -2 as an exponent is present, this means this is a small decimal and is the least. 3.5 and 5.3 have the same exponent of 3 but 5.3 is greater than 3.5 so its the greatest. The order is

x = -3

y = -18

step-by-step explanation:

to solve by substitution, substitute one variable and solve for the other. then substitute again to find the remaining variable.

x-1/3(3x-9) = -3 since y=3x-9 substittute y.

x-1/3(3x-9)=-3

x + x +3 = -3

2x+3=-3

2x+3-3= -3-3

2x=-6

x=-3

substitute again into y=3x-9

y=3(-3)-9

y=-9-9

y=-18
