Q. Add. Write your answer in scientific notation.\newline(3.99×107)+(2.27×107)(3.99 \times 10^7) + (2.27 \times 10^7)\newlineChoices:\newline(A) 9.06×1069.06 \times 10^6\newline(B) 9.06×1079.06 \times 10^7\newline(C) 6.26×1076.26 \times 10^7\newline(D) 6.26×1066.26 \times 10^6
  1. Add Coefficients: We have the following expression to add:\newline(3.99×107)+(2.27×107)(3.99 \times 10^7) + (2.27 \times 10^7)\newlineSince the powers of 1010 are the same, we can directly add the coefficients.\newlineWhat is 3.99+2.273.99 + 2.27?\newline3.99+2.27=6.263.99 + 2.27 = 6.26
  2. Convert to Scientific Notation: Write the answer in scientific notation.\newlineSubstitute 6.266.26 for the coefficient and 77 for the exponent in a×10ba \times 10^b.\newlineScientific notation: 6.26×1076.26 \times 10^7
  3. Choose Equivalent Expression: Choose the equivalent expression for (3.99×107)+(2.27×107)(3.99 \times 10^7) + (2.27 \times 10^7).(3.99×107)+(2.27×107)=6.26×107(3.99 \times 10^7) + (2.27 \times 10^7) = 6.26 \times 10^7The correct choice is (C) 6.26×1076.26 \times 10^7.
