10. Adding and Subtracting Scientific Notation Mrs. Spanier Algebra 1

11. To Add or Subtract… 1.Change numbers to standard form. 2.Add or subtract them. 3.Convert answer back into scientific notation.

12. Solve. Write answers in scientific notation. 2.4 x 10 2 )+(1.3 x 10 5 ) 1. (2.4 x 10 2 )+(1.3 x 10 5 ) = 240 + 130,000 = 130,240 = 1.3024 x 10 5 x 10 -2 )+(7.4 x 10 1 ) 2. (5 x 10 -2 )+(7.4 x 10 1 ) = 0.05 + 74 = 74.05 = 7.405 x 10 1 4 x 10 3 ) – (3.1 x 10 5 ) 3. (4 x 10 3 ) – (3.1 x 10 5 ) = 4,000 – 310,000 = -306,000 = -3.06 x 10 5 x 10 -3 ) – (2 x 10 -3 ) 4. (8.1 x 10 -3 ) – (2 x 10 -3 ) = 0.0081 – 0.002 = 0.0061 = 6.1 x 10 -3

13. Warm Up Simplify. Write your answer in Scientific Notation. (5.2 x 10 4 ) + (5.3 x 10 4 ) 1.05 x 10 5 52,000 + 53,000 = 105,000 HW Check Today! Find others with your card # and sit together wherever you like. Find others with your card # and sit together wherever you like.
