Jessica took out a stafford loan worth $7,175 at the beginning of her six-year college career. the loan has a duration of ten years and an interest rate of 6.3%, compounded monthly. how much greater will jessica’s monthly payment be if the loan is unsubsidized than if the loan is subsidized? round all dollar values to the nearest cent.

a.  $36.98

just took the test

$2,697.20

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.

can i see the following ?
