What is (1.7x10^4)x(8.5x10^-2) in standard form

1.445 × 10³

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form is a way of writing a small number or a large number easily.

We should give the final answer in standard form.

1) (1.7 × 10⁴) × (8.5 × 10⁻²)

We enter this directly into the calculator to obtain a solution.

= 1445

We write this in standard form we have :

1.445 × 10³

solution:

as, mean is defined as sum of all the observations divided by total number of observations.

and , median is mid value of the data whether arranged in ascending order or descending order.

consider, roadsters:

2,3,4,5,6,7,8,9

mean =

also, median= , because number of observations is even, so median is mean of two mid values.

now, coming to bandits

2,3,4,5,6

mean =  

median = 4, as number of observations is odd.

so, roadsters has greater median as well mean than bandits.

→option a is true about the repairs performed on 2 types of cars:

bandits have lower median and mean than roadsters.
