    • .74 x 10^5

    • 7.4 x 10^5

    Correct Answer
    A. 7.4 x 10^4
    Explanation
    The scientific notation is a way to express very large or very small numbers in a concise form. In this case, the number 74,000 can be written as 7.4 multiplied by 10 raised to the power of 4. This means that we move the decimal point 4 places to the right to get the original number. Therefore, the correct answer is 7.4 x 10^4.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

     is greater than 5. 

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    The given answer is true because the statement "is greater than 5" implies that the value being referred to is larger than 5. Since there is no specific value mentioned in the question, we can assume that any value greater than 5 would make the statement true.

    Rate this question:

  • 12. 

    Express using exponents

    • -5^3

    • -15

    • -1/125

    • 5^-3

    Correct Answer
    A. -5^3
    Explanation
    The given expression is -5^3. In this expression, the negative sign applies only to the base, which is 5. The exponent, 3, indicates that 5 is multiplied by itself three times. Therefore, -5^3 is equal to -5 * 5 * 5, which is -125.

    Rate this question:

  • 13. 

    • 3a^6

    • 1/16

    • -1/16

    • 16

    • -16

    Correct Answer
    A. 1/16
    Explanation
    The given correct answer is 1/16 because it is the only option that matches the given number 1/16. The other options (-1/16, 16, -16) do not have the same value as 1/16.

    • 9 x 10^6

    • 0.9 x 10^5

    • 0.9 x 10^-5

    Correct Answer
    A. 9 x 10^-6
    Explanation
    The given number, 0.000009, can be expressed in scientific notation as 9 x 10^-6. In scientific notation, the number is written as a decimal between 1 and 10, multiplied by a power of 10. In this case, the decimal is 9, and it is multiplied by 10 raised to the power of -6, indicating that the decimal point should be moved 6 places to the left to obtain the original number.
