Human hair grows at a rate of about 6.849×10−^4 cm per hour to 2.329×10−^2 cm per hour. The rate depends on gender, genetics, age, and health. Find the difference between the high end and the low end of the range. Express your answer in scientific notation. Do not round your answer.

The high end of the range is 2.329×10−^2 cm per hour.
The low end of the range is 6.849×10−^4 cm per hour.
To find the difference between the high end and the low end, we subtract the low end from the high end:
2.329×10−^2 - 6.849×10−^4 = 2.329×10−^2 - 0.0006849 = 0.02329 - 0.0006849 = 0.0226051
Therefore, the difference between the high end and the low end of the range is 2.26051×10−^2.
Thats wrong
