A student writes:
0.00082=8.2×104
What mistake did the student make?
The exponent should be negative because the number is less than 1.
Solve:
4(2x−3)=36
x= 6

A student calculates simple interest for $800 at 6% for 4 years:
800(6)(4)=19,200
What mistake did the student make?
Answer:
They used 6 instead of 0.06.
Correct interest:
800(0.06)(4)=192
