What is the purpose of scientific notation?​

Mathematics

Kisachek [45]3 years ago

Answer:

The primary reason for converting numbers into scientific notation is to make calculations with unusually large or small numbers less cumbersome. Because zeros are no longer used to set the decimal point, all of the digits in a number in scientific notation are significant.

From experience... Scientific notation is helpful when discussing very large numbers. For example... when discussing atomic masses, the values are so small... that it is much easier to write in scientific notation that to write out all of the 0's that come after the decimal

The safety inspector in a large city wants to estimate the proportion of buildings in the city that are in violation of fire cod
storchak [24]

Answer:

Check Explanation.

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample will be a representative of the entire build us in the city.

For a sample size 35, 3 have fire code violations, hence, the proportion of houses with fire code violations = (3/35) = 0.0857 = 8.57 %

The uncertainty in the estimate is given in the form of standard error.

Standard error = √[(p(1-p)/n]

n = sample size = 35, p = 0.0857, 1 - p = 0.9143

Standard error of the sample = √(0.0857×0.9143/35) = 0.1616

In terms of the population, (0.1616/35) = 0.00462

Proportion of buildings with fire code violations = (8.57 ± 0.462) %
