Answer:
D: 9.041 × 10^(10)
Step-by-step explanation:
The correct expression is;
(9.84 × 10^(10)) – (7.99 × 10^(9))
To subtract this, we need to ensure that both terms have the same powers.
Thus, (7.99 × 10^(9)) = (0.799 × 10^(10))
Lets now solve;
>> (9.84 × 10^(10)) – (0.799 × 10^(10))
Collecting like terms we have;
(9.84 – 0.799) × 10^(10)
>> 9.041 × 10^(10)
