a. exponential
b. fractional
c. smaller
d. larger

In the question "for the place values that occur to the right of the decimal point, each place value is ten times than the place value to its left" The correct answer is smaller because in the place value system, the place values to the left of the decimal point decreases by a factor of ten for every number to the right. Thus, each new number is ten times smaller than the number to its left.

The answer is: y would equal 3 because if you simplify the equation then it would be y= 3x+9 and if you divide 3x and 9 by 3 it would equal 3. y= 3
