the tempature of the sun is about 1.5 x 10^7 degrees celsius. what is this tempature written in decimal notation
The temperature of the sun, 1.5 x 10^7 degrees Celsius, in decimal notation is 15,000,000 degrees Celsius.
The temperature of the sun, 1.5 x 10^7 degrees Celsius, can be written in decimal notation as 15,000,000 degrees Celsius.
To convert the given temperature into decimal notation, you need to move the decimal point to the appropriate position. In this case, the temperature is already given in scientific notation, where it is written as 1.5 x 10^7 degrees Celsius.
To convert it to decimal notation, you simply move the decimal point 7 places to the right because of the exponent of 10^7.
Starting with 1.5, when you move the decimal point to the right 7 places, you get:
15,000,000
So the temperature of the sun, written in decimal notation, is 15,000,000 degrees Celsius.
