Answer:
[tex]5.9* 10^{-3}[/tex]
Step-by-step explanation:
The negative exponent means that it is going backwards or decreasing the value of the number. Therefore, in order to get 0.0059, we would have to skip three times backwards to get that number.
Rule of thumb, big number, always positive exponent.
Small number, negative exponent.
Hope this helps.
