Problem 75
Question
Write each number in decimal notation without the use of exponents. $$-6.00001 \times 10^{10}$$
Step-by-Step Solution
Verified Answer
-600000000000.0
1Step 1: Understand the Exponent
The exponent is 10. Since this is a positive exponent, it tells us that we need to move the decimal point 10 places to the right.
2Step 2: Move the Decimal Point
Starting at the end of the number -6.00001, move the decimal point to the right 10 places. Since there are not enough digits, fill in with zeros as needed.
3Step 3: Write the Final Answer
With the decimal point moved 10 places to the right, the number without the exponent will be -600000000000.0.
