Multiply the numbers on the left side of the multiplication sign. 

7.2 * 6 = 43.2

Combine the exponents attached to the 10s.

2 + (- 7) 
2 - 7
- 5

Your scientific notation should be 43.2 x 10⁻⁵.

As a way to check your answer:

7.2 x 10² = 720 (move the decimal to the right twice)

6 x 10⁻⁷ = 0.0000006 (move the decimal to the left 7 times because it's a negative exponent)

Multiply the two together on a calculator, you get 0.000432. If you move the decimal 5 times to the left on 43.2 (again, because it's a negative exponent), you get 0.000432. The answers match.

Elden [556K]

Answer:

k = -14

Step-by-step explanation:

We should cross-multiply

9/(k -  7)  =  6 / k

9*k  = 6 * (k - 7)

9k = 6k  - 42

9k - 6k = -42

3k = -42

k = -14
