8. Asher is involved in a competition where the grand prize is $ 150,000 dollars. Represent the
amount of the grand prize in scientific
notation.

1.5 x 10^5

Step-by-step explanation:

1.5 x 10⁵

We use scientific notation to write huge ( or micro ) numbers as easily as possible. To do that, we use the following notation: a x 10ᵇ

Take 150,000, and put a decimal right between the 1 and 5, like so:

1.50000

Now simply count the numbers after the decimal:

1 . 5 0 0 0 0

    1  2 3 4 5

That's five places, or numbers, after the decimal, and now we can use the notion mention earlier, a x 10ᵇ

So a = 1.5 and b = 5, and now we can combine the whole thing, so 1.5 x 10⁵

We can double check if needed/desired by doing the following

10⁵ = 100,000 x 1.5 = 150,000

answer: 2x + 2 − 2 = 10 − 2; subtraction property of equality

step-by-step explanation:

correct choice is b

step-by-step explanation:

when you calculate the average rate of change of a function, you are finding the slope of the secant line between the two points. for the function the average rate of change from point to point can be calculated as

to find the average rate of change from day 2 to day 10, note that at day 2, 8 houses were sold, so a(2,8) and at day 10, 2 houses were sold, so b(10,2). thus,
