In exercises 1-6, evaluate the function at the indicated value of x. Round your result to three decimal places.

6) f(x)=200(1.2)^12x x=24

I got 1.274174348e25

Would I write it as just 1.274, or 1.274e25?

@MinightTheWolfie would you know how to do this?

$$1.274\text{e}25 = 1.274 \times 10^{25}$$
so you would have to include that e, or just write it in scientific notation
