The general formula for a percent increase is as follows: (Original Amount - New Amount/Original Amount) x 100. The original height of the stalks was 60 inches tall. The new height of the stalks is 72 inches. In the numerator of our fraction, we take 72-60 to get 12. Our denominator is the original amount, or 60. This gives us an overall fraction of 12/60, which when we divide gives us 0.2. Once we multiply our decimal by 100, we get an overall percent increase of 20%.

express 121,200 in exponential (powers of 10) notation. express the earth sun distance in kilometers in powers of 10 notation.

Mashutka [201]

The exponential form of given number 121200 is 1.212 × $10^5$

And the earth sun distance in kilometers in powers of 10 notation is 1.5 × $10^8$

For given question,

We need to express 121,200 in exponential (powers of 10) notation.

To use scientific notation, pick a value between 1 and 10, then multiply it by 10ˣ.

The number between 1 and 10 in 121200 is 1.212 with 5 decimal points.

So, the exponential notation of given number would be,

121,200 = 1.212 × $10^5$

Earth's average distance from the Sun is around 93 million miles (150 million kilometers). That's one AU.

So the number between 1 and 10 in 150,000,000 is 1.5, with 8 decimal points.

So, the distance between he Earth and the Sun is:

150,000,000 = 1.5 × 10⁸

Therefore, the exponential form of given number 121200 is 1.212 × $10^5$

And the earth sun distance in kilometers in powers of 10 notation is 1.5 × $10^8$
