can you help me with the Lesson 9: Operations and Applications of Scientific Notation Connections Education

1205070 M/J PRE-ALG - T1 Unit 2: Rational Numbers test.What is the product of (5.1*10^3)*(3.2*10^3)? (please express your answer in scientific notation.)

the answers are...

B, A, D, B
i just did it and got them all right!

For all the 2021 users, I just took the test and I got a 100% with the answers

B
A
D
B
gah is still right!

Ill give the answers after I finish in a few minutes. ;)

And for the practice assessment on slide 4 the answers are

D, A, C, B
hope this helps!

Paws of fury i see you

Does anyone have the answers to the quiz

not me

Certainly! To find the product of two numbers written in scientific notation, we can simply multiply their coefficients and add their exponents.

In this case, we have (5.1 * 10^3) multiplied by (3.2 * 10^3).

1. Multiply the coefficients: 5.1 * 3.2 = 16.32.

2. Add the exponents: 10^3 * 10^3 = 10^(3+3) = 10^6.

Therefore, the product of (5.1 * 10^3) and (3.2 * 10^3) is 16.32 * 10^6.

In scientific notation, we express this as 1.632 * 10^7.

Hence, the final answer is 1.632 * 10^7.

(5.1*10^3)*(3.2*10^3)

(5.1)(3.2)*(10^3)(10^3)
16.32 * 10^6

But that's not scientific notation, so you need to shift the decimal point to

1.632 * 10^7
