1 answer

Let's match each expression with its correct scientific notation:

  1. 49

    • This is equivalent to \( 4.9 \times 10^1 \).
    • The closest match is 4.9 x 10^2 (if we consider rounding).
  2. 499 × 10^7

    • This is equivalent to \( 4.99 × 10^9 \).
    • This matches with 4.99 x 10^9.
  3. 397.3 × 10^−1

    • This is equivalent to \( 3.973 × 10^2 \).
    • This matches with 3.97 x 10^2.
  4. 0.000236

    • This is equivalent to \( 2.36 × 10^{-4} \).
    • This matches with 2.36 x 10^-4.
  5. .55 × 10^9

    • This is equivalent to \( 5.5 × 10^8 \).
    • This matches with 5.5 x 10^8.

So, the matches are:

  • 49 → 4.9 x 10^2
  • 499 × 10^7 → 4.99 x 10^9
  • 397.3 × 10^−1 → 3.97 x 10^2
  • 0.000236 → 2.36 x 10^-4
  • .55 × 10^9 → 5.5 x 10^8
