Answer:
a) 0.071
b) 0.884
Step-by-step explanation:
a)
7.1 * 10^(2) = 7.1 * 0.01 = 0.071
b)
(6.8 * 10^2) * (1.3 * 10^(-3)) = 6.8 * 1.3 * 10^2 * 10^(-3) = 8.84 * 10^(-1) = 8.84 * 0.1 = 0.884
Answer:
a) 0.071
b) 0.884
Step-by-step explanation:
b) explanation
Group coefficients together and exponents together to multiply numbers in scientific notation.
(6.8 ⋅ 1.3) (10^2 ⋅ 10^−3)
Multiply 6.8 by 1.3
8.84 (10^2 ⋅ 10^−3)
Use the power rule a^m a^n = a^m+n to combine exponents.
8.84 ⋅ 10^2 − 3
Subtract 3 from 2
8.84 ⋅ 10^ − 1
Convert 8.84 ⋅ 10^ − 1
from scientific notation.
0.884
hope this helps :) sorry I didn't include an explanation for a
p.s. i really need brainliest :)
