What is the sum of 5.3 x 10 5 and 3.8 x 104 in scientific notation?

5.3×10^5=53×10^4

53×10^4+3.8×10^4

=56.8×10^4

=5.68×10^5. Hope it help!

5.68 x 10^5

Step-by-step explanation:

5.3 x 10^5 + 3.8 x 10^4 = 5.68 x 10^5

the answer   is 200

step-by-step explanation:

this is a problem about poisson probabilities.   i don't know if you've

already studied poisson distributions, or if you have a place to look

to read more about the subject.  

here's how you can see a poisson distribution coming.   when there are

a lot of events that may happen at any time (or any place), and when

you're counting how many of them happen at a particular time (or a

particular place), and each event is independent of the others, then

the result is a poisson distribution.   this is roughly true for the

chocolate chips; one chip being in a cookie has only a small effect on

the probability that another chip will be in the cookie.

once you know you have a poisson distribution, you know a lot.   there

is only one parameter to a poisson distribution, so if you know the

mean, you know everything.   the form of the distribution is

  probability of n chips = {[e^(-x)]*(x^n)} / (n! )

true? is that what you're asking or do you mean something else?
