The Learning Goal for this assignment is:<br />

Determine appropriate and consistent standards of measurement<br />

for the data to be collected in a survey or experiment.<br />

Notes Section<br />

For Example:<br />

11.) 0.0006.633<br />

The decimal point moves from the first point to the second in 4 moves<br />

therefore, making 6.633x10^-4<br />

Since its making the number bigger, than the exponent is going to be a negative<br />

12.) 4.69.4<br />

The decimal point moves from the second one to the first decimal point in 2 moves<br />

therefore, making 4.694x10^2<br />

Since its making the number smaller, than the exponent is going to be positive<br />

The decimal number has to be between 1 and 9, so this means that if you find a<br />

scientific notation that isn't between those numbers, you have to change it to meet<br />

the requirement of being considered a scientific notation.<br />

When changing, the exponent changes as well because you have to move the<br />

decimal point.<br />
