To write 3482000000 in scientific notation. Put down the first number (3) and all numbers that come after it (not 0) put after a decimal point. Then count all of the numbers after the decimal points including 0's and that's your exponent. Like so,
3.482*10^9
Hope this helps!=)

<span>Equation:
silver + silver = silver
0.45x + 0.60(40-x) = 0.48*40
----------------
45x + 60*40 - 60x = 48*40
--------
-15x = -12*40
x = (4/5)40
x = 32 lbs (amt of 45% slloy needed)
40-x = 8 lbs (amt of 60% alloy needed)</span>
