A scientist uses an electron microscope to look at tiny structures called stereocillia, which sits in top of hair cells. The diameter of one sterocillium is found to be approximately 2.5 meters. What is the diameter expressed in a scientific notion

Step-by-step explanation:

To write a number in scientific notation or standard form we write the number and multiply it by 10 to the power of any number

  The proper format for scientific notation is a x 10^b  and it is read "a times 10 to the power of b"

Given the diameter of 2.5

in standard form or scientific notation is

b

step-by-step explanation:

the final amount you will pay is $68.04.

the tip is determined by the pre-tax amount, so we calculate the tip based on the original bill, not after we've added sales tax.

to find the tip:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we multiply that by 18.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 18 = 9.72

tip = 9.72$

to find the tax:

we can divide 54.00 by 100 to get 1% of 54. then we can multiply that by 8 to get 8%.

54 / 100 = .54

.54 x 8 = 4.32

tax= 4.32

now we can add the tip and tax to the bill to get our total.

54 + 9.72 + 4.32 = 68.04

total: $68.04
