Answer:

A) 10

Step-by-step explanation:

In the US, a number in scientific notation will have a mantissa (a) such that ...

1 ≤ a < 10

That is, the value of "a" must be between 1 and 10 (not including 10).

_____

<em>Comment on alternatives</em>

In other places or in particular applications (some computer programming languages), the standard form of the number may be a×10^n with ...

0.1 ≤ a < 1

In engineering use, the form of the number is often chosen so that "n" is a multiple of 3, and "a" is in the range ...

1 ≤ a < 1000

This makes it easier to identify and use the appropriate standard SI prefix: nano-, micro-, milli-, kilo-, mega-, giga-, and so on.

HOW MANY BASEBALLS CAN FIT INTO THE TRACTOR TRAILER. THE TRAILER DIMENSIONS ARE 301.5"L X 96.99"W X 105.04"H AND CIRCUMFERENCE R

Shkiper50 [21]

Volume of tractor = length x width x height = 301.5 x 96.99 x 105.04 = 3,071,630.624

For baseballs of 9 inches:
$9=2\pi r \\ \\ r= \frac{9}{2\pi}$

Volume = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3= \frac{4}{3} \pi \left( \frac{9}{2\pi} \right)^3=12.31$

Number of 9 inches baseballs = $\frac{3,071,630.624}{12.31} = 249,513$

For baseballs of 9.25 inches:
$9.25=2\pi r \\ \\ r= \frac{9.25}{2\pi}$

Volume = $\frac{4}{3} \pi r^3= \frac{4}{3} \pi \left( \frac{9.25}{2\pi} \right)^3=13.37$

Number of 9.25 inches baseballs = $\frac{3,071,630.624}{13.36} = 229,824$

Therefore, the tractor can contain between 229,824 and 249,513 baseballs.
