Answer:

Red Cell is 300 times larger than the virus

Step-by-step explanation:

Size in scientific Notation

  • Red Cell = 9 * 10^-6
  • Virus = 9 * 10^-8

Procedure.

  • Count the number of zeros in the decimal
  • Red Cell = 5 ; virus = 7
  • And one more to each
  • Red Cell = 6; virus = 7
  • change the numbers to minus
  • Red Cell = -6 ; virus = - 7
  • The last row is the powers as shown above.

Answer

9*10^-6/3 * 10^-8

3*10^(-6 - - 8)

3*10^(-  6 + 8)

3^10^2 or 300 times larger

I need help on this question I just don't understand how to do it
melisa1 [442]
The process used in the picture is cross multiplying. Make an x through the numbers and multiply them by each other. That's why 21 was multiplied by 14 and 49 was multiplied by n. The value of n is unknown, so it simplifies to 49n, and 14*21=21.4. So basically to recap, make an x, multiply the terms that are diagonal from each other, write both of the answers next to each other, and put an = sign in between them. If you don't understand I can try to explain differently ☺

Simplify.<br> 8^-4<br> 8-^10 thats a fraction to<br> A) 8^-14 <br> B) 8^-6 <br> C) 8^6 <br> D) 8^14
gogolik [260]

We have 8^(-4) over 8^(-10). The bases are both 8, so we subtract the exponents (numerator minus denominator).

\frac{8^{-4}}{8^{-10}} = 8^{-4-(-10)} = 8^{-4+10} = 8^{6}

The final answer is choice C) 8^6
