When Writing 6000 in scientific notation, we must first count the decimal places from the right side of the number going to the left then multiplied by 10 raised to the number of decimal places. So to write 6000 in scientific notation: Answer:6.0x103 Because since there are 3 decimal places going to the right multiplied by 10 and raised to the number of decimal places.Likewise if 0.00006 is expressed in sci.(scientific) notation we write it as: Answer:6x10-4 Rule: If the decimal point goes to the left, the exponent is positive but if it goes to the left,the exponent is negative
Not necessarily.
Because when there is a positive and a negative in the same problem, it gives you a negative. An easy way to solve problems like that is if there is an odd number of negative signs, then your answer is going to be negative. If there is an even number of negative signs, then your answer is going to be positive. (no matter if there is a positive sign in a math problem).
No, there is a big difference between 2^(-4) and (-2)^4 The first is 1/16 and the second is 16. A negative exponent is the reciprocal of a positive exponent. a^b is going to be 1/ (a^(-b)), Similarly, (a^b)*(a^(-b))=1 for two reasons. First multiplying reciprocals cancels them out. Second, when you multiply the same base you add the exponents, so (a^b)*(a^(-b)) = a^0 which equals 1◄
Positive!

The result will always be negative. Positive X Positive = Positive Negative X Negative = Positive Positive X Negative = Negative
Negatives and Positives Positive + Positive = Positive Negative + Negative = Positive Negative + Positive = Negative Positive + Negative = Negative
When dividing numbers that are different the answer will be negative.

Im going to have to say negative.
Positive!
I would call that positive.
It's a positive if you didn't like where you were. It's a negative if you don't know where you're going.
none. they would explode if there were no positive with negative charges
