I did not catch well, but i think you already got your answers. Let me explain. For the first part you got your notation right: for 0.0045 the correct scientific notation is 4.5 x 10^-3. Now the second part, the answer would be the first one, the notation that you are giving is the one who corresponds to <span>4.5 x 10^-2, the first option you have. Hope it helps</span>
a) (0.17 ac)×(126 min/ac) = 21.42 min
b) I can mow 1/126 ac/min; you can mow 1/117 ac/min. Together, we can mow at a rate that is the sum of these:
... (1/126 + 1/117) ac/min = (117 + 126)/(126×117) = 243/14,742 ac/min
Then it will take 14,742/243 min/ac × 0.17 ac/lawn ≈ 10.31 min/lawn
