Help please 10 points

the mistake in the pattern is that :

b. the decimal point was moved one too many place values each time

the correct pattern could be made by :

b. moving the decimal point to the right the same numbers of place values as the exponents

a.) list the factors of 40.

1/2/4/5/8/10/20/40

b.) list the factors of 40 that represent the number of cans that could be on each shelf.

5

c.) how many different arrangements of cans are possible?

just one because if you put more on one shelf you will go way over 40 and the cabinet will probably break.

d.) what are the possible arrangements of the cans?

put 5 cans on each self to reach 40 cans in total.

e.) which arrangement uses all the shelves?

5 because you can put 5 cans on each shelf, and since there are 8 shelfs you are equally going to get 40 cans.

amount of apples bought =$ 2.6

amount of peaches bought =$ 1.475

amount given by you to cashier= $ 20

amount received by me= amount given by you to cashier -   [amount of apples bought +amount of peaches bought]

                                        = 20   - [1.475 + 2.6]

                                        = 20 -   [ 4.075]

                                        =   $15.925

so, change received by me = $15.925
