Question
Chapter 3, Problem 60E
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
The time taken to draw the squares in an exponential fashion is to be determined.
Concept Introduction:
Figures which contain high order numbers, such as those with ten or more zeroes, are tedious to write. A better way to express them is exponentially. It is an easier as well as an accurate way of writing a numeral. It is also termed as scientific notation.
