Answer: The oldest one is Vredfort Crater.

Step-by-step explanation:

The data is:

Chicxulub was formed 6.5x10^7 years ago.

Vredfort was formed 2x10^9 years ago.

Sudbury basin was formed 1.8x10^9 years ago.

Acraman crater was formed 5.8x10^8 years ago.

We want to find the oldest, so we need to find the larger number of the 4 we have.

For this, we need to see at the exponents, the larger the exponent the larger the number.

We have two with a 9 in the exponent:

Vredfort and Sudbury.

Now we look at the number, Vredfort has 2x10^9 and Sudbury has 1.8x10^9.

Both have the same exponent, but the scalar of Vredfort is larger (2 is greater than 1.8) so we have that Vredfort is older.

good job on increasing our team sales from 90 to 130 units per day.” wow i never thought that we could increase our sales by
artcher [175]

The sales was increased by 44.4%.

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Lets do this cumulative
  • 90 of 10 % =  9  which is 99
  • 90 of 10 % = 9 which is 108
  • 90 of 10% = 9 which is 117
  • 90 of 10% = 9 which is 126
  • 90 of 4 % = 3.6 which is 129.6
  • 90 of 0.044% = 0.0396 which is 129.99
  • This comes to nearly 44.44 to be closer there was an increase.
  • Always rule 1 approximation use 50% of 90 if it is above 130.
  • Down it to 40% of 90 see if the sales is lower than 130.
  • It should always start with 50,40,30....10 percents.
  • Alternative should be 10,1 or decimals.
  • Approximation using decimals rounding up becomes simple.

The bookstore marked some notepads down from ???$ 3.00 but still kept the price over ???$ 2.00. It sold all of them. The total a
Anna71 [15]
The answer is 13. To figure this out I used 10 notebooks sold as a guide. I knew the answer could not be 10, because $27.95/10 was not a number stopping in the hundredths place (or a true money amount).

I tried numbers greater than 10 using a trial and error strategy until I got to 13 notebooks sold and found that it $27.95 was divisible by 13 to get an answer between $2 and $3 ($2.15 exactly).
