7. Neptune: _________________ 8. Pluto: ____________________

Answer 12

You're supposed to be converting distances to scientific notation. What are the distances you're supposed to be converting? Did you read the problem?

Answer 13

im confused????

Answer 14

about what?

Answer 15

this whole thing :( all day can you try it?

Answer 16

You're supposed to be converting numbers into scientific notation, but no where here do they give you the list of numbers you're supposed to be converting.

Answer 17

I dont know let me look

Answer 18

Brandon, as Ktk said, you are missing a list of distances. These will be given to you. Then you take them, say 45000000000 and then you look at the example given and convert it to scientific notation. Scientific notation is when you write the number as a power of 10. So 3400 is 3.4 x 10^3. I think of it as, you have to move three places from the last 0 to get to the 3. So 10^3. So if you have 590000, you would write 5.9 and then x 10^ and figure out the power of 10. Here, you have to move 5 digits from the last 0, so you get 5.9x10^5. MAkes sense?

Answer 19

So 36, 000, 000 = 3.6× 107 in scientific notation.
Now, test your knowledge and try to convert these plant distances from
decimal to scientific notation using the chart and the calculatron. Write your
answer in the space provided

Answer 20

thats what it says??

Answer 21

Yes, I read the same thing you did. There is no place where they give you the list of numbers you are supposed to be converting.

Answer 22

I wonder if you are supposed to look it up. If you are in 7th grade, they would have given it to you.

Answer 23

im gonna look again hold on

Answer 24

Also, if he looks it up he'll almost certainly find the answer already in scientific notation.

Answer 25

Preetha, thanks for the invite to OS....got in in the ap calculus list.

Answer 26

Clearly there is something missing like an earlier problem that has these distances.

Answer 27

Answer 28

Hi Pross. Great. Lets chat off line.

Answer 29

THere you go. Now try the first one.

Answer 30

thats what i mean i cant!!! iv been stuck on this all day please can u do just this lesson for me

Answer 31

BRandon, this group gets really mad if you don't try on your own. So lets start with the first number.35,983,610 . First step is to write it as number with a decimal after 3. Write it.

Answer 32

You have about 7 people watching right now! (-:

Answer 33

Okay, so 3.5 like that?

Answer 34

Right. Thanks for trying. Now look at your sheet and see how many places you have to move from the last digit to the decimal.

Answer 35

3.5983610 x 10^ ?

Answer 36

?

Answer 37

Follow the instructions for the Calculatron but using the number for Mercury instead of their example number
