An advertising company charges $40 per half-page advertisement and $75 per full-page advertisement. Michael has a budget of $800 to purchase 13 advertisements. (a) Define a variable for each unknown and write a system of equations to represent the situation.

(b) How many half-page advertisements does Michael purchase? Show your work.

(c) How many full-page advertisements does Michael purchase? Show your work.

the answer is 489

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.
