The slope of the function on the left is multiplied by p, and q is added to the y-intercept to arrive at the function on the right. Which of the following are the values for p and q? A) p= 1/4 and q= 3
B) p= 1/4 and q= 5
C) p= 1/4 and q= 4
D) p= 4 and q= 4

the answer is C

Step-by-step explanation:

plato

x = 23.78

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.
