Scientific Notation Flashcards
What to do in +/- when the variable and the exponent is the same?
Perform the indicated sign then copy the exponent.
What to do in +/- when the variable is the same while the exponent is not?
Change the smaller exponent to be the same as the bigger exponent, then perform the sign.
What happens when the decimal place is moved to the right?
The constant becomes a smaller value while the exponent becomes a bigger value.
What happens when the decimal place is moved to the right?
The constant becomes a bigger value while the exponent becomes a smaller value.
What to do in multiplying Scientific Notation when the bases are the same?
Perform the indicated sign then add the exponents.
What is the rule of Scientific Notation?
More than 1 but is less than 10.
What to do in dividing scientific notation when the bases are the same?
Perform the indicated sign then subtract the exponents.
What to do when the Scientific Notation is under a square root?
Separate the constant and the x10^n
Then make the x10^n/2
Then simplify then multiply
What to do when the constant is too small inside the square root?
Move the decimal point to the right then make the exponent smaller. Perform the same was as it is under a square root sign.
What to do when the Scientific Notation is raised to squared, cubes, or etc..?
Distribute the exponent to the constant and the x10^n
