Q. 3. Solve and express your answer in both scientific and standard notation. (4pts)0.000856+(1.3×10−6)Scientific Standard
Write in Scientific Notation: First, let's write both numbers in scientific notation to make it easier to add them.0.000856 is the same as 8.56×10−4.1.3×10−6 is already in scientific notation.
Add Numbers in Scientific Notation: Now, we add the two numbers together.Since the exponents are different, we can't add them directly. We need to make the exponents the same.Let's convert 1.3×10−6 to have the same exponent as 8.56×10−4.1.3×10−6 is the same as 0.0013×10−4.
Convert Exponents: Now we can add them together.8.56×10−4+0.0013×10−4=(8.56+0.0013)×10−4.
Perform Addition: Let's do the addition.8.56+0.0013=8.5613.So, 8.56×10−4+0.0013×10−4=8.5613×10−4.
Write in Scientific Notation: Now, let's write the answer in scientific notation. 8.5613×10−4 is already in scientific notation.
Convert to Standard Notation: Finally, let's convert the scientific notation back to standard notation. 8.5613×10−4 is the same as 0.00085613.
