By definition, the scientific notation is given by:

$a * 10 ^ b$

Where:

a: It is a number greater than or equal to 1 and less than 10. It is called "mantissa".

b: It is the order of magnitude.

We have the following decimal number:

0.001742

Rewriting in scientific notation we have:

$0.001742 = 1.742 * 10 ^{ -3}$

Answer:

$1.742 * 10 ^{ -3}$

X = rate of mechanic who worked 5 hours

y = rate of mechanic who worked 15 hours

x + y = 200
