Sure, let's tackle these questions one by one:
1. For what value of \(a\) will \(8 \times 10^3\) be 40 times larger than \(a \times 10^2\)?
\[
8 \times 10^3 = 40 \times (a \times 10^2)
\]
Dividing both sides by 40, we get:
\[
\frac{8 \times 10^3}{40} = a \times 10^2
\]
Simplifying,
\[
0.2 \times 10^3 = a \times 10^2
\]
\[
2 \times 10^2 = a \times 10^2
\]
\[
a = 2
\]
So, the value of \(a\) is 2.
2. One second is approximately 0.0000115741 of a day. What is this number in scientific notation?
\[
0.0000115741 = 1.15741 \times 10^{-5}
\]
3. The temperature of the sun at its center is about \(2.7 \times 10^7\) degrees Fahrenheit. What is this temperature written in decimal notation?
\[
2.7 \times 10^7 = 27,000,000
\]
4. Use scientific notation to determine which of these numbers has the least value: 98,789,000; 987,890,000; 89,987,000. Write your answer in scientific notation expressed to the exact decimal place.
\[
98,789,000 = 9.8789 \times 10^7
\]
\[
987,890,000 = 9.8789 \times 10^8
\]
\[
89,987,000 = 8.9987 \times 10^7
\]
The least value is \(8.9987 \times 10^7\).
5. Place the numbers in descending order:
\[
2.3 \times 10^{-10}, 3.2 \times 10^{-10}, 2.3 \times 10^{-12}, 2.3 \times 10^{-8}
\]

\[
(1.42 + 1.2) \times 10^6 = 2.62 \times 10^6
\]
So, \(A. 2.62 \times 10^6\).
8. The distance from Earth to the sun is about 26,000,000 miles (which is \( 2.6 \times 10^7 \)):
\[
2.6 \times 10^7
\]
9. Calculate \(4.8 \times 10^{-3} - 9.4 \times 10^{-6}\):
\[
4.800 \times 10^{-3} - 0.0094 \times 10^{-3} = 4.7906 \times 10^{-3} \approx 4.79 \times 10^{-3}
\]
10. A grain of rice (0.002 ounces) is heavier than a strand of hair (\(2.17 \times 10^{-5}\) ounces):
\[
0.002 - 2.17 \times 10^{-5} = 0.002 - 0.0000217 = 0.0019783 \approx 1.9783 \times 10^{-3}
\]
11. Light travels \(1.9 \times 10^5\) miles/second. How many miles in a year?
\[
(1.9 \times 10^5 \text{ mi/sec}) \times (3.2 \times 10^7 \text{ sec/year}) = 6.08 \times 10^{12} \text{ mi/year}
\]
12. The average tectonic plate moves \(0.006\) m/year. In \(2 \times 10^6\) years, it will move:
\[
0.006 \text{ m/year} \times 2 \times 10^6 \text{ years} = 1.2 \times 10^4 \text{ m}
\]
13. An asteroid is \(3.311 \times 10^8\) miles away from Earth, traveling at \(7.7 \times 10^4\) mi/hr. How many hours before it hits?
\[
\frac{3.311 \times 10^8}{7.7 \times 10^4} \approx 4.30 \times 10^3 \text{ hours}
\]
14. A field of \(3.9 \text{ mi}^2\) is being subdivided into \(1.3 \times 10^3\) family gardens. Area per garden:
\[

\]
