8.71 xx10^(12)
The exponent is a positive number. This means the decimal point moves to the right by the number of the exponent.
There are two digits to the right of the decimal point, so to move the decimal 12 places, you would need to add 10 zeros.
8.71 x 10^12 becomes 8,710,000,000,000.
Answer:
15 + .5x = 25

Step-by-step explanation:
You should always use the least number of significant figures. The exception is exact numbers or constants.
For example, there are 60 minutes in an hour. Even though this number has one significant figure, it is an exact number. So 15 minutes converted to hours would be 0.25 hr.
The Zero Product Property states that if ab = 0, then either a = 0 or b = 0, or both a and b are 0. When the product of factors equals zero, one or more of the factors must also equal zero. Once the polynomial is factored, set each factor equal to zero and solve them separately.
