11. Slide 5- 11 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Objective 2 Write scientific notation in standard form.

12. Slide 5- 12 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Scientific notation: A number expressed in the form where a is a decimal number with and n is an integer. Scientific notation gives us a shorthand way to write very large or very small numbers. Changing Scientific Notation (Positive Exponent) to Standard Form To change from scientific notation with a positive integer exponent to standard notation, move the decimal point to the right the number of places indicated by the exponent.

13. Slide 5- 13 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Example Write in standard form. Solution Multiplying 4.26 by 10 5 means that the decimal point will move five places to the right.

14. Slide 5- 14 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Changing Scientific Notation (Negative Exponent) to Standard Form To write a number expressed in scientific notation with a negative exponent in standard form, move the decimal point to the left the same number of places as the absolute value of the exponent.

15. Slide 5- 15 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Example Write in standard form. Solution Multiplying 3.87 by 10 –4 is equivalent to dividing by 10 4, which causes the decimal point to move four places to the left.

16. Slide 5- 16 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Objective 3 Write standard form numbers in scientific notation.

17. Slide 5- 17 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Changing Standard Form to Scientific Notation To write a number greater than 1 in scientific notation: 1. Move the decimal point so that the number is greater than or equal to 1, but less than 10. (Tip: Place the decimal point to the right of the first nonzero digit.) 2. Write the decimal number multiplied by 10 n, where n is the number of places between the new decimal position and the original decimal position. 3. Delete zeros to the right of the last nonzero digit.

18. Slide 5- 18 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Example Write 875,000 in scientific notation. Solution Place the decimal to the right of the first nonzero digit, 8. Next, we count the places to the right of this decimal position, which is five places. We write the 5 as the exponent of 10. Finally, we delete all the 0s to the right of the last nonzero digit, which is 5 in this case. Move the decimal point here to express a number whose absolute value is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10. There are five places to the right of the new decimal point.

19. Slide 5- 19 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Changing Standard Form to Scientific Notation To write a positive decimal number that is less than 1 in scientific notation: 1. Move the decimal point so that the number is greater than or equal to 1, but less than 10. (Tip: Place the decimal point to the right of the first nonzero digit.) 2. Write the decimal number multiplied by 10 n, where n is a negative integer whose absolute value is the number of places between the new decimal position and the original decimal position.

20. Slide 5- 20 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Example Write 0.0000000472 in scientific notation. Solution Place the decimal point between the 4 and 7 digits, so that we have 4.72, which is a decimal number greater than 1 but less than 10. Since there are eight decimal places between the original decimal position and the new position, the exponent is –8. Move the decimal point here to express a number whose absolute value is greater than or equal to 1 but less than 10. There are eight decimal places in between the original position and the new position, so the exponent is –8.

55. Slide 5- 55 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley We can add and subtract polynomials in the same way that we add and subtract numbers. In fact, polynomials are like whole numbers that are in an expanded form. In our base-ten number system, each place value is a power of 10. We can think of polynomials as a variable-base number system, where x 2 is like the hundreds place (10 2 ) and x is like the tens place (10 1 ). To add whole numbers, we add the digits in like place values; in polynomials, we add like terms. Adding Polynomials To add polynomials, combine like terms.

70. Slide 5- 70 Copyright © 2006 Pearson Education, Inc. Publishing as Pearson Addison-Wesley Consider 2 3 2 4, which is a product of exponential forms. To simplify 2 3 2 4, we could follow the order of operations and evaluate the exponential forms first, then multiply. 2 3 2 4 = 8 16 = 128 However, there is an alternative. We can write the result in exponential form by first writing 2 3 and 2 4 in their factored forms. 2 3 means three 2s. 2 4 means four 2s. Since there are a total of seven 2s multiplied, we can express the product as 2 7. Notice that 2 7 = 128.
