\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @AddyM the decimal would have to be less than 10 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) what?

hhanan:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @AddyM If the exponent is positive, move the decimal point to the right. If the exponent is negative, move the decimal point to the left. \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) did you read the question

4evablood:

oof tbh i think its c

ramen:

We can obv elimanate C, that isn't scientific notation at all. But when we do scientific notation, the number like addy said has to be 1-9. For example it can't be 34.2 x 10. It would have to be 3.43 x 10.

ramen:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @4evablood oof tbh i think its c \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) C is just a regular exponent form.

4evablood:

""""Scientific notation is a way of writing very large or very small numbers. A number is written in scientific notation when a number between 1 and 10 is multiplied by a power of 10. For example, 650,000,000 can be written in scientific notation as 6.5 ✕ 10^8."""

hhanan:

would it be the first one?

ramen:

No not the first one because the first number (32.1) isn't 1-9. It would be correct if it was 3.21

AddyM:

i dotn think it would be 32.1

AddyM:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @ramen No not the first one because the first number (32.1) isn't 1-9. It would be correct if it was 3.21 \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) i agree

AddyM:

whe ndoing scientific notation the number has to be less than 10

ramen:

We have eliminated A and c, and you are also given the fact that the first number must be 1-9, so which one do you think it is?

hhanan:

the other options are 1-9

ramen:

is .22 1-9?

hhanan:

the 2 one

ramen:

Correct.

AddyM:

\(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{Originally Posted by}}\) @hhanan the 2 one \(\color{#0cbb34}{\text{End of Quote}}\) there ya go

hhanan:

ramen:
