4. The half-life of uranium-238 is 4.464 x 10^11 years longer than the half-life of uranium-235, which is 700,000,000 years. Therefore, the half-life of uranium-238 is (4.464 x 10^11) + (700,000,000) = 516,300,000,000 years. Therefore, the answer is A. 516,300,000,000.
5. The new storage capacity of the phone after buying the additional bytes is (1.28 x 10^11) + (384,000,000,000) = 5.12 x 10^11 bytes. Therefore, the answer is A. 5.12 x 10^11 bytes.
1. To add the two numbers in scientific notation, we need to make sure that the exponents are the same. In this case, we can rewrite the numbers as:
7.3 x 10^7 + 1.7 x 10^7
Now that the exponents are the same, we can add the numbers:
(7.3 + 1.7) x 10^7
Simplifying the addition gives us:
9 x 10^7
Therefore, the correct sum is option D: 9.1 x 10^7.
2. To find the sum of the populations of the two cities in scientific notation, we can simply add the two numbers:
3.45 x 10^6 + 1.3 x 10^5
The exponents are already the same, so we can add the numbers:
(3.45 + 0.13) x 10^6
Simplifying the addition gives us:
3.58 x 10^6
Therefore, the sum of the populations of the two cities in scientific notation is option D: 3.58 x 10^6.
3. To find the weight of the dump truck after adding 15,300 pounds, we can simply add the two numbers, which are already in scientific notation:
2.8 x 10^5 + 1.53 x 10^4
The exponents are already the same, so we can add the numbers:
(2.8 + 0.0153) x 10^5
Simplifying the addition gives us:
2.8153 x 10^5
Therefore, the weight of the dump truck after adding 15,300 pounds in scientific notation is option D: 2.953 x 10^5 pounds.
4. To find the half-life of uranium-238, we need to add the given half-life of uranium-235 (700,000,000 years) to the additional half-life of uranium-238 (4.464 x 10^11 years):
700,000,000 + 4.464 x 10^11
Since both numbers are already in decimal form, we can simply add them:
700,000,000 + 446,400,000,000
Simplifying the addition gives us:
446,400,700,000
Therefore, the half-life of uranium-238 in decimal form is option A: 516,300,000,000.
5. To find the total storage of the phone after buying the additional bytes, we need to add the initial storage (1.28 x 10^11 bytes) to the additional bytes (384,000,000,000):
1.28 x 10^11 + 384,000,000,000
The exponents are already the same, so we can add the numbers:
(1.28 + 384) x 10^11
Simplifying the addition gives us:
385.28 x 10^11
Therefore, the total storage of the phone after buying the additional bytes in scientific notation is option D: 385.28 x 10^11 bytes.
1. To add numbers in scientific notation, we need to make sure that the exponents (the numbers after the "x 10^") are the same. In this case, we have 7.3 x 10^7 and 1.7 x 10^7. We can add the numbers in front of the "x 10^" normally, which gives us 7.3 + 1.7 = 9.1. The common exponent is 7 in this case. Therefore, the correct sum is 9.1 x 10^7. So the answer is option D.
2. Similar to the previous question, we need to make sure the exponents are the same. We have 3.45 x 10^6 and 1.3 x 10^5. Adding the numbers in front of "x 10^" gives us 3.45 + 1.3 = 4.75. The common exponent is 6 in this case. Therefore, the sum of the populations of the two cities is 4.75 x 10^6. So the answer is option D.
3. To find the weight of the dump truck with the additional weight, we simply add the numbers in front of the "x 10^". 2.8 + 15,300 = 15,302.8. However, we need to express the answer in scientific notation. The weight of the dump truck with the additional weight is 1.53028 x 10^4 pounds. So the answer is not among the options provided.
4. To find the half-life of uranium-238, we add the given half-life of uranium-235 (700,000,000 years) and the additional time (4.464 x 10^11 years). Adding these gives us 700,000,000 + 4.464 x 10^11 = 4.4647 x 10^11 years. So the answer is option C.
5. To find the total storage of the phone after buying the additional bytes, we add the initial storage (1.28 x 10^11 bytes) and the additional bytes (384,000,000,000 bytes). Adding these gives us 1.28 x 10^11 + 3.84 x 10^11 = 5.12 x 10^11 bytes. So the answer is option A.
