The exponent indicates how large or small the number is. A positive exponent moves the decimal to the right, which creates a very large number. On the other hand, a negative exponent moves the decimal to the left, which creates a very small number.

When working with very large or very small numbers, scientists, mathematicians, and engineers often use scientific notation to express those quantities. Scientific notation uses exponential notation. When a number is written in scientific notation, the exponent tells you if the term is a large or a small number. A positive exponent indicates a large number and a negative exponent indicates a small number that is between 0 and 1.

Hope this helped!

1. One rule of thumb for estimating crowds is that each person occupies 2.5 square feet. Use this value to
givi [52]

Answer:

216 people

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

2.5 feet² is occupied by 1 person

Dimension of room = 216 in × 360 in

Required:

No. of people that would occupy the room

SOLUTION:

Step 1:

Convert the dimensions of the room from in to ft

Note: 1 foot = 12 inches

216 inches = \frac{216}{12} = 18 ft

360 inches = \frac{360}{12} = 30 ft

Step 2: calculate area of the room.

Area of the room = 30*18 = 540 ft²

Step 3: calculate the no. of people the room will contain.

2.5 ft² will contain one person

Therefore, 540 ft² will contain: \frac{540}{2.5} = 216 people
