There are (10^8)^2 ⋅ 10^0 candies in a store. what is the total number of candies in the store? 1 10^10 10^16 10^17 ^ = the power

The answer would be the 3rd one, 10 to the power of 16 (10^16).

This is because you multiply the 2 powers (2 and 8) to get 16. When there is one power within a set of parenthesis and one power on the outside the parenthesis. Since there is a 10 to the 0 power (10^0) you add this power to 16 since it is multiplying integers with exponents. Thus getting 10^16 as an answer.

I hope this helps!

Xis -1/2
y is 35/4.

Ibelieve the answer is b. y=0 would make the line horizontal across the x.
