Can anyone help me with this please.Thanks!

The answer is no, because none of terms that are added by five will give you 97. Since 3 is the first term and you are adding 5, each number either ends in a 3 or an 8. When you get to the 90’s, you only get 93 and 98. In other words, 97 does not fit the pattern in the sequence. Which is why 97 is not a term in the sequence. I hope this is the answer you are looking for. If not, you can message me and I will help you further.

; you need to multiply 3 and 2, which gives you 6, and then add the exponents of the tens. In this case,  equals 6, so the exponent will be six, but the ten won't change.

If you have a scientific calculator, it's even easier. First press mode, which should probably be a button near the top left, depending on which type of calculator you have. Change the mode from norm (normal) to sci (scientific). Then if you just write in the numbers (using parentheses), you should get them in scientific notation. Just make sure you change the mode back to normal or all numbers will come out in scientific notation.

Hope this helped :)
