Answer:

The difference in height is 5.36 × [tex]10^{2}[/tex] feet

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to get the difference in height in the given units of "feet".

The difference in height of the two buildings is 1,483 - 947 = 536 feet

536 feet can now be expressed in standard scientific notation of the form

A × 10^n, where A is a number between 1 and 10, and "n" is a positive integer (n > 0)

So, 536 feet = 5.36 × 100  = 5.36 × [tex]10^{2}[/tex] feet in standard scientific notation
