Here is your answer:

First turn the notations into standard form:

  • 1.3 \times 10^6 = 1300000
  • 6.8 \times 10^5 = 680000

Now subtract:

1300000 - 680000 = 620000

Now change the number in notation:

620000 = 6.2 \times 10^5 =

Therefore your answer is "6.2 × 10^5"

Hope this helps!

One way to solve this is to revert to integers.

Do this by moving the decimal in 1.3 to the right 6 places (indicated by the positive power value) and then 6.8 move the decimal to the right 5 places (same reason)

Now you have 1,300,000 & 680000. Subtract to get 620,000.

Now convert your product to scientific notation again by moving your decimal to the left until you are left with 6.2 x ? The question mark will be 10 to the number of places you moved the decimal. 10^5

We have 6.2 x 10^5.

It is import to note that when the decimal must be moved to the right for values less than one, the power will be negative.

Given: x - 6.3333 ≤ 1.5 .
Inessa05 [86]

Answer:

x or (-\infty, 47/6]

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that 6.3333 = 6 1/3 = 19/3 = 38/6.

Also, note that 1.5 = 1 1/2 = 3/2 = 9/6.

So, the inequality is really equal to x-38/6.

We can then add 38/6 to both sides to get x.

So, the solution is x, or in interval notation, (-\infty, 47/6]
