On the way home from visiting his family, vincent’s plane cruised at an altitude of 3.2 × 104 feet. he had heard that a man named felix baumgartner skydived from an altitude of 1.28 × 105 feet. vincent wants to know how much higher felix went on his skydiving trip. question 1 you have already seen how adding numbers works in either scientific notation or standard notation. but can you subtract numbers in scientific notation and get the same results as subtracting in standard notation? to find out, first solve vincent’s problem in standard notation. part a write the cruising altitude of vincent’s plane in standard notation.

Aparking lot is to be 400 feet wide and 370 feet deep. how many standard-sized cars fit in this lot considering a double-loaded (w4) two way traffic set up, an angle of 90° and a sw of 9’ 0’’? (do not consider handicapped parking spaces, and consider 15’ for turning aisles). show your work.

On average, how many more hits will he get when he bats 100 times at home during the day as opposed to 100 times away at night?
