12-pack of skwunch apple juice cost $3.00 after a 40% discount. which equation would allow you to find the original price of the 12-pack?

$3.00 is with a 40% discount

so 3 = 0.6x  (3 is 1.00 - 0.40 = 0.60 of unknown original price x)

so 3/0.6 = x to get that price which is $5

Step-by-step explanation:

$3.00 is with a 40% discount

so 3 = 0.6x  (3 is 1.00 - 0.40 = 0.60 of unknown original price x)

so 3/0.6 = x to get that price which is $5

Hope it helps!

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.
