In the example problem, 0.000000005 = 5 x 109. What is the standard form of 10-??
1 answer:
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
In this case, the example is missing the negative sign.
This is an example of scientific notation, which is used to reduce a very large number into a short expression like: 0.000000005, which is reduced in the expression .
It's important to say that the negative sing in the exponent, indicates that all zeros that are being reduce, are placed at the right of the number. Also, to apply a correctly scientific notation, the number reduced should be between 0 and 10.

So to solve for the value of a variable in an equation, you would need to isolate x on one side. The first thing you have to do is multiply 2 and (x + 7) together, which can be rewritten as 2(x) + 2(7). After multiplying, your equation would be: , or A.

So the rule with multiplying exponents with the same base is to add the exponents together, and the rule with dividing exponents with the same base is to subtract the exponents. Your equation will be simplified as such:
Now the rule with converting negative exponents into fractions is . In this case, 4^-2 would turn into
, or C, which is your final answer.
