1. Problem Description

The problem gives the equation y=7x70y = \frac{7}{\sqrt{x}} - 70. We need to find the value of yy when x=2.53×108x = 2.53 \times 10^{-8}, and express the answer in standard form.

2. Solution Steps

First, we substitute the given value of xx into the equation:
y=72.53×10870y = \frac{7}{\sqrt{2.53 \times 10^{-8}}} - 70
Next, we evaluate the square root:
2.53×108=2.53×1081.5906×104\sqrt{2.53 \times 10^{-8}} = \sqrt{2.53} \times \sqrt{10^{-8}} \approx 1.5906 \times 10^{-4}
Then we substitute this back into the equation for yy:
y=71.5906×10470y = \frac{7}{1.5906 \times 10^{-4}} - 70
Now, we calculate the fraction:
71.5906×10444008.62\frac{7}{1.5906 \times 10^{-4}} \approx 44008.62
Finally, we subtract 70 from the result:
y44008.6270=43938.62y \approx 44008.62 - 70 = 43938.62
To express this in standard form, we write it as 4.393862×1044.393862 \times 10^4. Rounding to two decimal places, we get 4.39×1044.39 \times 10^4.

3. Final Answer

4.39×1044.39 \times 10^4
