Solve the word problem. the table shows the low outside temperatures for monday, tuesday, and wednesday. what was the change in the low outside temperature from tuesday to wednesday? this function table shows the outside temperature for a given day. monday, -12.5 (degrees celsius). tuesday, -8.6 (degrees celsius). wednesday, -10 (degrees celsius). –10⁰–1.4⁰18.6⁰–18.6⁰

the largest number of the four options is 1.8 x 10-2

you have it in scientific notation.

1.80 x 10-6   = 0.00000180

1.80 x 10-4   = 0.000180 (bigger, or "less small", than the former one)

so

1.8 x 10-2       = 0.0180. as you see. the "less small", or the biggest one of them all.

as you have negative exponent, it means you are dividing 1.8 by 100 (i.e. moving the dot towards left, two times).

if you had positive exponent for the scientific notation, power of tenths, you would be multiplying times 100 (moving the dot towards right) as below:

1.8 x (10)2 = 180

so. if you have negative exponent in scientific notation, move the dot toward left. if it is positive, toward right as many times the exponent tells you.

answer is b
