Problem 70
Question
Write each number in decimal notation without the use of exponents. $$-8.17 \times 10^{6}$$
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
-8170000
1Step 1: Understand the components of the number in scientific notation
-8.17 is the mantissa and \(6\) is the exponent. The exponent is a positive number, which means the decimal point in the mantissa should be moved to the right.
2Step 2: Move the decimal point
Since the exponent is \(6\), move the decimal point in -8.17 six places to the right. For every place you move to the right, if there isn't another digit, simply add a zero.
3Step 3: Write the final number
After moving the decimal point, the final number is -8170000.
