Jim Beam, your method is a good one although the answer should have been 38.3 x 10 ⁵ ,
also it should then be changed back to scientific notation 3.83 x 10 ⁶ OR just written as an ordinary number.

(3.4 x 10^6) + (4.3 x 10^5)
The best way to do this on a calc is
3.4 exp 6 + 4.3 exp 5
If you use the exp button DO NOT put in any 10s.

Find the x-intercepts for y=3x^2+19x-40
The equation of the x axis is y = 0
So plug this into the formula
You can do it the way Jim Beam said to get an approximation or you can just use the quadratic formula to get the exact answers.

1.24x10to the 5th divided by6.2x10 to the -third=?
Can you do it on your calc?
to put in 1.24x10 ₅
enter
1.24 exp 5
If the exponential is a fraction or negative, put it in brackets.

think about it

You know that 3 x 6 = 18
so how can you work out
3 x what = 18
I mean, how do you have to put the 3 and 18 together to get the 6 ?

Do the same for your queston.
