Answer:
Maria
Step-by-step explanation:
A typical snake bite delivers 0.0045 grams of venom.
Maria wrote it in scientific notation as [tex]4.5\times 10^{-3}[/tex]
Tammy wrote it in scientific notation as [tex]4.5\times 10^{3}[/tex]
Any number can be written in the form of scientific notation as follows :
[tex]N=a\times 10^b[/tex] (a is real no and b is integer)
The given no is 0.0045.
There are 2 zeroes before 4. Also the decimal is there before 2 zeroes.
[tex]0.0045=\dfrac{45}{10000}\\\\=\dfrac{45}{10}\times \dfrac{1}{1000}\\\\=4.5\times 10^{-3}[/tex]
Hence, Maria is correct.
