Answer:

The correct answer is 1.2913 x
10^(5) square feet.

Explanation:

A factory builds a new warehouse that is approximately 1.28 x
10^(5) square feet = 128,000 square feet.

Later, they add on 1.13 x
10^(3) square feet = 1,130 square feet more for offices.

Thus the total size of the new building is given by 128000 + 1130 = 129130 square feet = 1.2913 x
10^(5) square feet.

Thus in scientific notation the total area of the factory is 1.2913 x
10^(5) square feet.
