We described numbers in this lesson using both powers of 10 and using standard decimal value. For example, the speed of light through ice can be written as a multiple of a power of 10, such as (2.3)⋅108 meters per second, or as a value, such as 230,000,000 meters per second. Use the number line to answer questions about points A and B. Describe point B as:

a. A multiple of a power of 10

Describe point A as:

a. A multiple of a power of 10

366

step-by-step explanation:

3

step-by-step explanation:

in standard form:

a= dictionaries

b= maps

you have to buy 3 dictionaries, so put a 3 next to the a (dictionaries) so that you can multiply them by each other.

a3+b= 60 (the amount of money you have)

we already know the cost of a=15 so replace a with $15

($15 x 3)+b=60

multiply 15 and 3 to get $45 and replace it with $45

45+b=60

and then replace b with 15 to get the total:

45+15=60

that means you have $15 left after buying 3 dictionaries.

15 divided by the cost of a map ($5) equals 3.

so you can buy 3 maps.

sorry if it was confusing!
