How do you write the standard number 862,900 in scientific notation?

8.629 * 10^5

Step-by-step explanation:

862,900

Scientific notation is of the form a * 10 ^b  where a is between 1 and less than 10

Move the decimal 5 places to the left so that there is one number before the decimal

Since we moved the to left the 5 is positive and it is our value for b

8.62900* 10 ^5

The zeros  at the end of the decimal are extra and can be left off

8.629 * 10^5

hi there!

first we need to find out how much they are adding to each number to make the next number.

ex: 4 + 4 = 8, 8 + 8 = 16, and so on.

so continuing with 32,

32 + 32 = 64

64 + 64 = 128

128 + 128 = 256

256 + 256 = 512

4, 8, 16, 32, 64, 128, 256, 512

the 8th term of the sequence will be 512

hope this ! ~
