Question

help please its a scientific notation

9.44x10 to the 6th power divided by -2x10 to the -6th power

Answer 1

\[\frac{9.44*10^6}{-2*10^-6}\]

Answer 2

\[\frac{9.44*10^6}{-2*10^{-6}}\]

Answer 3

when you have exponents like 10^6 of like terms so you can look at it like this

\[\frac{(9.44)(10^6)}{(-2)(10^{-6})}\]

how would you do

\[\frac{10^{6}}{10^{-6}}\]

Answer 4

would it be 10/10

Answer 5

exponents add or subtract when dividing?

Answer 6

we subtract right

Answer 7

yes but the bottom is a negative sooo

Answer 8

you get 6-(-6)=12

Answer 9

so thats what your *10 part wil be

\[*10^{12}\]

Answer 10

so its 9.44/-2 *10 to 12

Answer 11

yep

Answer 12

9.44 divided by -2 is -4.72

Answer 13

you can look at it like this. you'll use this much more in calc if you go into it

\[\frac{1}{10^{-6}}=\frac{1}{\frac{1}{10^6}}\]

if you want to get it into a better fraction you'd multiply by one in the form of a reciprocal

\[\frac{1}{\frac{1}{10^6}}*\frac{\frac{10^6}{1}}{\frac{10^6}{1}}\]

bottom cancels and you get

\[10^6\]

so then you have
\[\frac{9.44*10^6*10^6}{-2}\]

\[10^6*10^6=10^{6+6}=10^{12}\]

Answer 14

whichever makes you understand it better
