1.  Chapter 5: Lesson 1: Powers of 10 and Scientific Notation Objective: Learn to use exponents to write powers of 10. Learn to write large numbers in scientific notation.

2. You have seen some numbers that are too large to be written down easily. Today you’ll learn a method created by scientists that make it easier to write and work with very large numbers.  A number like 1000 can be written as 10 × 10 ×10. When factors are repeated, you can use an exponent and a base.  You can write 10 × 10 ×10 as 10 3 because there are the three 10s multiplied together.  The product 1000 is called a power of 10.  10, 100, 1000, 10000, are also powers of 10. 3 factorsExamples: Evaluate 10 7 = 10,000,000 10 × 10 ×10 Evaluate 10 5 = Evaluate 10 9 = 10 3 Base

3. The numbers you have seen so far have been written in standard form. The number 88,000 is written in Standard Form. But it can also be expressed in powers of 10.  Scientific Notation is a way of writing large numbers. A number in scientific notation has 3 parts : a number greater than × a power of 10 or equal to 1 but less than 10 Example: 8.8 × 10 4 Your example: Write each number in scientific notation. 1)31,700,000,000 2) 9,600.5

4.  You must move the decimal point the same amount of spaces as the exponent. To write the numbers in standard form : You must move the decimal point the same amount of spaces as the exponent. Examples: Write in scientific notation. * 93,000 * 1,030,000,000 Write in standard form. 1) 4.1 × 10 5 2) 2.894 × 10 12 3) 5.98 × 10 6 4) 1.32 × 10 10

5. Homework: Write each number in standard form. 1. 8× 10 6 2. 6 × 10 8 3. 5.2 × 10 8 4. 1.2 × 10 12 5. 4.98 × 10 5 6. 2.368 × 10 10 Write each number in scientific notation. 7. 9,370,000,000 8. 8,500 9. 175 10. 10,100,000,000 11. 243,000,000 12. 439,300,000
