Last year a large trucking company delivered 9.5 x 10^5 tons of goods with an average value of $20,000 per ton. What was the total value of the goods delivered? Write the answer in scientific notation.

Answer 1

Just took the test

1.9 X 10 (squared)10

Answer 2

9.5 x 10^5 = 950.000
950.000 x 20.000 = 19.000.000.000
the decimal of 19.000.000.000 is 1.9 x 10^9
