6. Which of the following shows the product represented in scientific notation? (5.6 x 104)(4.3 x 107)

Explanation

The product of (5.6 x 10^4) and (4.3 x 10^7) is equal to 24.08 x 10^11. However, none of the answer choices match this value. Therefore, the correct answer is not available.

7. Which of the following represents the product in scientific notation?(3.1 x 10-7)(5.8 x 10-6)

Explanation

When multiplying numbers in scientific notation, you multiply the coefficients and add the exponents. In this case, (3.1 x 10-7)(5.8 x 10-6) equals 17.98 x 10-13. However, in scientific notation, the coefficient should be between 1 and 10. Therefore, 17.98 x 10-13 can be written as 1.798 x 10-12, which is the correct answer.

Submit
8. Which of the following represents the quotient in scientific notation? 2 x 107 8 x 104  

Explanation

The given answer, 2.5 x 102, represents the quotient in scientific notation. In scientific notation, a number is written as a product of a decimal number between 1 and 10 and a power of 10. In this case, 2.5 is the decimal number between 1 and 10, and 102 is the power of 10. Therefore, 2.5 x 102 is the correct representation of the quotient in scientific notation.
