Answer:

I'm assuming that "106" is really 10^6

Explanation:

4.17 is equivalent to 4.17 × 100. NO 4.17 x 100 = 417

[If this is really 4.17 is equivalent to 4.17 × 10^0. Then YES. 10^0 = 1]

4.17 is equivalent to 4.17 × 101. NO 4.17 x 101 = 421.17

Again, if this is 10^1, then no. 10^1 = 10

The product has a positive exponent. YES

The coefficient is 6.

Coefficient? NO. Exponent? Then YES

The E in the product is the indicator that the solution is in scientific notation. YES 4.17E6 is 4.17 x 10^6

The exponent of the product is the product of the original exponents.

NO. In multiplication, the exponents are added (as long as they have the same base)
