Answer:
3.33×10⁴
Step-by-step explanation:
You can use the hint, or you can use a common exponent. Here is the latter case.
(3.9×10⁴) -(5.7×10³) = (3.9×10⁴) -(0.57×10⁴) = (3.9 -0.57)×10⁴
= 3.33×10⁴
_____
With a little practice, you can see the effect on exponents of moving the decimal point. Here, we have ...
5.7×10³ = (0.57×10)×10³ = 0.57×(10×10³) = 0.57×10⁴
__
When adding or subtracting in scientific notation, all that is required is that the exponents of all the numbers be the same. The hint says make all the exponents be 0. Above, we have chosen to make them all be 4. You could also use 3:
(3.9×10⁴) -(5.7×10³) = (39×10³) -(5.7×10³) = (39 -5.7)×10³
= 33.3×10³ = 3.33×10⁴

Answer:
less than
Step-by-step explanation:
2.29 Is less than 34
a) Cube area = 6a^2
a = 6(5.25)^2
5.25 * 5.25 = 27.5625 * 6 = 165.375
Rounded, thats 165.38
b) Rectangular prism area = 2(wl + hl + hw)
Lets say l = 6.8, w = 8.2, h = 10
It equals about 441.52
volume of the rectangular prism = base area * height
base area = length * breadth
volume of the rectangular prism = length * breadth * height
volume of the rectangular prism = 5*8*2 = 80 inches ^3
volume of taken up by the eraser = 5.5 inches^3
volume that is not take-up by the eraser = 80-5.5 = 74.5 inches^3
