Final answer:To transform a number intoscientific notation,shift the decimal point so that the number lies between 1 to 10, then multiply this by 10 raised to the number of places you moved the decimal point. The resulting numbers are 1.99 x 10^-7, 2.407 x 10^4, 5.9 x 10^2, 3.08 x 10^-3, and 5.00 x 10^-4.Explanation:To write a number in scientific notation, you shift thedecimal pointuntil you have a number between 1 and 10. Then, youmultiplythis by 10 raised to the number of places you shifted the decimal point. A positive exponent means you shifted to the left (making the number smaller), while a negativeexponentmeans you shifted to the right (making the number larger).0.000000199 becomes 1.99 x 10-7(moved decimal point 7 places to the right)24,070 becomes 2.407 x 104 (moved decimal point 4 places to the left)590 becomes 5.9 x 102 (moved decimal point 2 places to the left)0.00308 becomes 3.08 x 10-3 (moved decimal point 3 places to the right)0.000500 becomes 5.00 x 10-4 (moved decimal point 4 places to the right)Learn more about Scientific Notation here:brainly.com/question/2005529#SPJ11...
