Answer: A. The equation that represents the price, e, of the electricity is e + 0.05e + 6.30 = 48
C. The cost of the electricity before taxes or fees is $39.71. 

e + 5% of e + 6.30 = 48

e + 0.05e + 6.30 = 48
1.05e = 48 - 6.30
1.05e = 41.70
e = 39.71

39.71 + 5%(39.71) + 6.30 = 48
39.71 + 1.99 + 6.30 = 48
48 = 48

why do whole numbers raised to an exponent get greater while fractions raised to an exponent get smaller

Answers

Because in fractions you are taking away. For example: if you multiply 1/2 times 1/2, you are taking 1/2 away from that original half, but with whole nombers you are increasing the value. For exapmle: if you multiply 2 times 2, it will give you more.

What's bigger 2/3 or 4/5

Answers

The best thing to do is either to find a common denominator or convert them to decimals.
I will find a common denominator.
A common denominator of 3 and 5 is 15.
You multiply the first fraction by 5
2*5= 10
This then becomes 10/15
You then multiply the second by 3.
4*3= 12
Therefore, this becomes 12/15
As the second of these fractions is larger, this means that 4/5 is larger.
The alternative method is to put them into decimals, in which case 2/3= 0.66 and 4/5= 0.8
Hope this helps :) 
find the LCD (15) and change the fractions to: 10/15 and 12/15. compare the numerators, 12 is greater, so **4/5** is greatest
