Answer:

4\times 10^{-2}.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have bee a number 0.037854921. We are asked to estimate the number to the nearest hundredth and and express answer as a single digit times a power of 10.

Round to nearest hundredth (two decimals after decimal):

0.037854921\approx 0.04 (Thousandths digit is greater than 5; round up)

Now, we will write 0.04 as a fraction.

0.04\times\frac{100}{100}=\frac{4}{100}

Write 100 as a power of 10:

\frac{4}{100}=\frac{4}{10^2}

Using exponent rule \frac{1}{a^m}=a^{-m}, we will get:

\frac{4}{10^2}=4\times 10^{-2}

Therefore, our required number in scientific notation would be 4\times 10^{-2}.

To solve this problem you must apply the proccedure shown below:

1. Let's round the value to the nearest hundredth. As you can see, the digit 8 is in the thousandths place and is greater than 5, therefore, you must round up to 0.038.

2. Now express the value as a single digit times a power of 10, as following:

38x10^{-3}

Therefore, the answer is: 38x10^{-3}

Got this online. Pour the distilled water in the beaker until it is half full. Add 3 tbsp. of salt to the water and mix until completely dissolved.

Insert the two electrodes into the salt water. They should be on either side of the beaker. Once this is done, the light bulb should light up.
