what is (1.4*10^1)(8*10^4) in scientific notation?
PLEASE HURRY AND HELP ME!!
To multiply numbers in scientific notation, you can multiply the coefficients and add the exponents.
The multiplication of the coefficients would be: 1.4 * 8 = 11.2
The addition of the exponents would be: 1 + 4 = 5
Therefore, (1.4 * 10^1)(8 * 10^4) in scientific notation is 11.2 * 10^5.
To multiply numbers in scientific notation, you can multiply the coefficients and add the exponents.
First, multiply the coefficients 1.4 and 8:
1.4 * 8 = 11.2
Next, add the exponents 1 and 4:
1+4 = 5
Therefore, (1.4*10^1)(8*10^4) in scientific notation is 11.2*10^5.
(1.4*8)x10^(1+4)
= 11.2x10^5
= 1.12x10^6
