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!

X - 3= -21 <br>This is so confusing:(​
Aneli [31]

Answer:

\huge\boxed{x=-18}

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to solve this, we are trying to find the value of x. Basically, x is a placeholder for a number that is unknown. Some number minus 3 is equal to 21.

Our goal is to find x. To do this we want to isolate x on one side of the equation

x-3=-21

Let's add 3 to both sides.

x-3 + 3 = -21+3\\\\-3 + 3 = 0\\\\x = -21+3\\\\x=-18

Hope this helped!
