2. Jamie used a microscope to measure the diameter of a hair. She found that the

diameter of the hair was 0.000072 meter. How is this number written in scientific

notation?

A. 7.2x10.5

B. 7.2 x 106

C.7.2 x 105

D.7.2 x 10

Type Your

7.2 *10⁻⁵

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the diameter of the hair expressed as 0.000072, we are to express it in scientific notation.

The standard form of scientific notation is expressed as;

A * 10ⁿ

A is a value from 1 to 9

n is any integer.

Rewriting 0.000072 in this form, we will need to shift the decimal point to the front 5 times to have;

0.000072 = 7.2 *10⁻⁵ where;

A = 7.2 and n = -5

Note that the power is a negative value since the value is less than 1.
