he values of a and k when 299,790,000 is written in scientific notation. is 8

below is the solution:

299,790,000 = 2.9979 x 10^8

a = 2.9979
k = 8

Answer from: morgan4411

The value of a=2.9979 and the value of k is 8.

Further details:

As the normalized form of scientific notation is

a×10^k

so when we write the value of 299,790,000 into scientific notation, it would be written as

2.99×10^8

So, by viewing this equation, the value of a=2.9979 and the value of k is 8.

Where the white dots are is where your points should be plotted.a translation is simply just moving something from one place to another. in this case, you would move each plot point of the original shape 2 units up, and 5 units to the left.
