To solve this problem, we can set up the equation:

8 × 103 = 40(a × 102)

First, let's evaluate the right side of the equation:

a × 102 = 100 × a (1 zero after 1)

Next, we substitute this value back into the equation:

8 × 103 = 40(100 × a)

Now, let's simplify the right side of the equation:

8 × 103 = 4000 × a

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 4000 to isolate "a":

(8 × 103) / 4000 = a

2000 / 4000 = a

a = 0.5

Therefore, the value of "a" that makes 8 × 103 equal to 40 times larger than a × 102 is 0.5.

To solve this problem, we can set up the equation:

8 × 10^3 = 40(a × 10^2)

Now, let's simplify the right side of the equation:

8 × 10^3 = 40a × 10^2

Since the bases (10) are the same, we can combine the exponents on the right side:

8 × 10^3 = 40a × 10^(3-1)

Now, let's simplify further:

8 × 10^3 = 40a × 10^2

8 × 1000 = 40a × 100

8000 = 4000a

Finally, divide both sides of the equation by 4000 to isolate "a":

8000 / 4000 = a

2 = a

Therefore, the value of "a" that makes 8 × 10^3 equal to 40 times larger than a × 10^2 is 2.

To write the temperature of the sun at its center, 2.7×107 degrees Fahrenheit, in decimal notation, we simply remove the exponent:

2.7 × 10^7 = 27,000,000

Therefore, the temperature is written as 27,000,000 degrees Fahrenheit in decimal notation.

To determine which of these numbers has the least value, we need to compare them in scientific notation. Let's convert each number into scientific notation:

98,789,000 = 9.8789 × 10^7
987,890,000 = 9.8789 × 10^8
89,987,000 = 8.9987 × 10^7

Comparing the exponents, we can see that 8.9987 × 10^7 has the smallest exponent. Therefore, 89,987,000 has the least value among the given numbers.

To place the numbers in descending order, we can compare the exponents first:

2.3 × 10^(-12)
2.3 × 10^(-10)
2.3 × 10^(-8)
3.2 × 10^(-10)

Now, let's compare the coefficients (the numbers before 10^x):

2.3 × 10^(-12)
2.3 × 10^(-10)
3.2 × 10^(-10)
2.3 × 10^(-8)

We can see that the numbers with the highest exponent of -8 will have the greatest value. Among those numbers, 3.2 × 10^(-10) has the greater coefficient (3.2 > 2.3), so it will come first. Finally, the numbers with the exponents of -12 and -10 will be ordered based on their coefficients:

3.2 × 10^(-10)
2.3 × 10^(-10)
2.3 × 10^(-12)
2.3 × 10^(-8)

Therefore, in descending order, the numbers are:

3.2 × 10^(-10), 2.3 × 10^(-10), 2.3 × 10^(-12), 2.3 × 10^(-8)
Answered by GPT 3.5
Apologies for the incorrect response. Let's accurately place the numbers in descending order:

2.3 × 10^(-12)
2.3 × 10^(-10)
3.2 × 10^(-10)
2.3 × 10^(-8)

Now, comparing the exponents, we see that 10^(-8) has the largest exponent. Among the numbers with that exponent, 2.3 × 10^(-8) has the largest coefficient.

So, the correct descending order is:

2.3 × 10^(-8)
3.2 × 10^(-10)
2.3 × 10^(-10)
2.3 × 10^(-12)

Apologies for the repeated errors. Let's correctly place the numbers in descending order:

3.2 × 10^(-10)
2.3 × 10^(-10)
2.3 × 10^(-12)
2.3 × 10^(-8)

We compare the exponents first, and since -8 is the highest exponent, the number 2.3 × 10^(-8) will come first. Next, we compare the coefficients of the numbers with an exponent of -10. The number 3.2 × 10^(-10) has a higher coefficient than 2.3 × 10^(-10), so it will come next. Finally, the number with an exponent of -12, 2.3 × 10^(-12), will come last.

Therefore, the correct descending order is:

2.3 × 10^(-8), 3.2 × 10^(-10), 2.3 × 10^(-10), 2.3 × 10^(-12)

To determine the most appropriate unit, we need to consider the magnitude of the values.

Out of the given options:
- 1.05¯¯¯¯¯ × 10^4 hours is a relatively large value, representing 10,500 hours.
- 3.8 × 10^7 seconds represents a much larger duration of approximately 38 million seconds.
- 6.3¯¯¯ × 10^5 minutes indicates a duration of approximately 630,000 minutes.
- 4.39814¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯¯ × 10^2 days suggests a smaller value, around 439 days.

Given the options, 3.8 × 10^7 seconds represents the most appropriate unit since it represents the longest duration.

To find the total number of acres in the park and the forest combined, we add their individual areas:

1.42 × 10^6 acres (park)
+ 1.2 × 10^6 acres (forest)

To add these, we need to make sure the numbers are written in the same power of 10. Let's convert 1.2 × 10^6 to the same power as 1.42 × 10^6:

1.42 × 10^6 acres (park)
+ 0.12 × 10^(7) acres (forest) (moving the decimal one place to the right increases the power of 10)

Now we can add the two numbers:

1.42 × 10^6 acres
+ 0.12 × 10^7 acres = 1.54 × 10^6 acres

Therefore, the total number of acres in the park and the forest combined is 1.54 × 10^6 acres.

To calculate 4.8×10^(-3) - 9.4×10^(-6), we need to subtract the coefficients while keeping the exponent the same.

4.8×10^(-3) - 9.4×10^(-6) can be rewritten as:

4.8×10^(-3) - 0.0094×10^(-3)

Now, subtract the coefficients:

4.8 - 0.0094 = 4.7906

Finally, express the answer in scientific notation, rounding to 2 decimal places:

4.7906 can be written as 4.79. In scientific notation, this is:

4.79×10^(-3)

To find out how much heavier a grain of rice is than a strand of hair, we need to subtract the mass of the strand of hair (2.17×10^(-5) ounces) from the mass of a grain of rice (0.002 ounces).

0.002 ounces - 2.17×10^(-5) ounces

First, we need to express both numbers in the same decimal format:

0.002 ounces - 0.0000217 ounces

Now, we can subtract the numbers:

0.002 - 0.0000217 = 0.0019783

To express this in scientific notation, we need to convert it to a decimal between 1 and 10:

0.0019783 = 1.9783 × 10^(-3)

Therefore, a grain of rice is 1.9783 × 10^(-3) ounces heavier than a strand of hair.

To calculate the distance light travels in a year, we need to multiply the speed of light (1.9×10^5 mi./sec) by the number of seconds in a year (3.2×10^7 seconds).

(1.9×10^5 mi./sec) × (3.2×10^7 seconds)

Multiplying the coefficients and adding the exponents, we get:

(1.9 × 3.2) × (10^5 × 10^7) = 6.08 × 10^12

So, light travels approximately 6.08×10^12 miles in a year.

To calculate the distance the tectonic plate would move in 2×10^6 years, we need to multiply the rate of movement (0.006 m/year) by the number of years (2×10^6 years).

(0.006 m/year) × (2×10^6 years)

Multiplying the coefficients, we get:

0.006 × 2 = 0.012

Now, we multiply the powers of 10:

10^6 × 10^(-3) = 10^(6-3) = 10^3

Combining the coefficient and the power of 10, we get:

0.012 × 10^3 = 1.2 × 10^(-2) × 10^3 = 1.2 × 10^(3-2) = 1.2 × 10^1 = 1.2

So, the tectonic plate would move approximately 1.2 meters in 2×10^6 years.

To calculate the time it will take for the asteroid to hit Mars, we need to divide the distance to Mars (3.311×10^8 miles) by the rate of the asteroid (7.7×10^4 mi./hr).

(3.311×10^8 miles) / (7.7×10^4 mi./hr)

Dividing the coefficients and subtracting the exponents, we get:

(3.311 / 7.7) × (10^8 / 10^4) = 0.429350649 × 10^4

To express the answer in scientific notation, we need to convert it to a decimal between 1 and 10:

0.429350649 × 10^4 = 4.29350649 × 10^(-1+4) = 4.29350649 × 10^3

Therefore, it will take approximately 4.29350649 × 10^3 hours for the asteroid to hit Mars.
