Determine which of the following numbers below has the largest value? 2 x 10^-2 3.2 x 10^-1 3 x 10^-1 2.5 x 10^-1

I'd suggest you not use " x " to indicate multiplication. Usually, " x " is used as a variable name, not as an operator. Use " * " to indicate multiplication:

2*10^(-2).

Note that 10^(-2) is smaller than 10^(-1), so eliminate 2*10^(-2) as an answer choice. Then decide which of the coefficients of 10^(-1) is the largest:

3.2, 3, 2.5.

3.2 is the largest.

Thus, the final answer is: "The largest number here is 3.2*10^(-1)."

Here is your

Lets solve each equation to find out which has the greater value:

A. 2 x 10^-2

It's negative so move to the left:

= .002

B. 3.2 x 10^-1

It's negative so move to the left:

= .32 < Your answer.

C. 3 x 10^-1

It's negative so move to the left:

Remember each full number has a decimal point that you can't see:

= .3

D. 2.5 x 10^-1

It's negative so move to the left:

= .25

Therefore the answer is option B "3.2 x 10^-1."

Since how:

.32 > .002

.3 < .32

.32 > .25

Hope this helps!

false

step-by-step explanation:

false.   two legs of the trapezoid would be congruent, but the other two would not.   were all the legs congruent, then we'd have a square; were the 2 shorter sides congruent and the 2 longer sides also congruent, we'd have a rectangle.
