7. Maria works in a shoe store where she is paid
$580.00 a week, plus 3% commission. In one
month, she had weekly sales of $1420.00,
$1148.50, $897.75, and $1648.00. Calculate
Maria's earnings for the month.

3175.4325

Step-by-step explanation:

1st. get the total. 1420.00+1148.50+897.75=3466.25

2nd. get the commission. 3/100*346625=2595.4325

3rd.get the amount. 2595.4325+580.00=3175.4325

3; 9 is 8 to -4

step-by-step explanation:

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.
