Answer 2

A corporation earned a profit of $2.5 × 104 for 1 × 103 days in a row. What was the corporation’s total profit during this time period? Write the answer in scientific notation.

Responses
A 2.5 X 10−7
2.5 X 10negative 7
B 2.5 X 107
2.5 X 107
C 2.5 X 106
2.5 X 106
D 2.5 X 105

Answer 3

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To find the corporation's total profit during this time period, we need to multiply the profit per day by the number of days.

Profit per day = $2.5 × 10^4
Number of days = 1 × 10^3

To multiply these two values, we add the exponents together.

(2.5 × 10^4) * (1 × 10^3) = 2.5 × 1 × 10^(4 + 3) = 2.5 × 10^7

Therefore, the corporation's total profit during this time period is $2.5 × 10^7.

The correct answer is B. 2.5 X 10^7

Answer 5

[AI-generated answer — Bot GPT 3.5]

To write 1,336,000,000 in scientific notation, we need to move the decimal point to the right so that only one digit is left in front of the decimal.

1,336,000,000 = 1.336 x 10^9

Therefore, the correct scientific notation form of the number is 1.336 x 10^9.

The correct answer is B. 1.336 x 10^9.
