When you write 0.0000001 as a power of 10: a. the base is 1 and the exponent is -7. b. the base is 1 and the exponent is -6. c. the base is 10 and the exponent is -7. d. the base is 10 and the exponent is -6.
Obviously, it's not a. or b..
Counting the number of digits after comma to get exponent number!
Oh, thanks. I got confused because the lesson told me first to do all the zeros, then only after the decimal.
Glad that I can help :)
Uh-oh. Thanks, but I submitted the test and it said that it was wrong. AT least we both learned something new. All the zeroes.
Still, you helped. ;]
thanks
What's your answer?
c.
And you said d
Question 6 (Worth 2 points) When you write 0.0000001 as a power of 10: the base is 1 and the exponent is -7. the base is 1 and the exponent is -6. the base is 10 and the exponent is -7. the base is 10 and the exponent is -6. Points earned on this question: 0
NO, the number of digit after comma is 7
So the result is 10^-7
Oh...oops.
Sorry.
That's why you always need to post your answer so the solver can double check for final result!
Oh, okay. Thanks for the tip.
Do you positively understand why you're wrong now?
Yes.
I am going to redo the test
Okie, good idea to learn!
