The metric system uses one unit for each category of measurement.

What is a metric system?

A system of measurements is called the metric system. It is employed in calculations and research across the globe.

Measurements for length include millimeters (mm), decimeters (dm), centimeters (cm), meters (m), and kilometers (km).

A foot equals 30.48 cm, however, a popular 30 cm rule measures every 1 cm, therefore the metric system also provides more exact measurements.

The English system is in fact based on the metric system because they look for reference materials to get the measurements.

The length of cell A is 8x10 to the power of negavtive 6 m. The length of cell B is0.0000004 m. What is the ratio of cell​ A's length to cell​ B's length? Use pencil and paper. Is it easier to find the ratio when the numbers are expressed in scientific notation or in standard​ form? Explain your reasoning.

Answers

Answer:

Ratio of length of cell A to cell B is 20 : 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Length of cell A = [tex]8\times 10^{-6}[/tex] m

Length of cell B = 0.0000004 m

Convert the length of cell B into scientific notation.

Length of cell B = [tex]4.0\times 10^{-7}[/tex]

Now the ratio of the lengths of cell A and cell B = [tex]\frac{8.0\times 10^{-6}}{4.0\times 10^{-7}}[/tex]

                                                                                = [tex]2\times 10^{7-6}[/tex]

                                                                                = 20

Therefore, ratio of length of cell A to cell B is 20 : 1

Answer: 7.5

Step-by-step explanation:

Yeah 7.5 is correct!


Explanation:

Places A and B are 100km apart from each other on a highway. A car starts from A and another from B at the same time. If they move in the same direction, they meet in 10 hours and if they move in opposite directions, they meet in 1 hour and 40 minutes. Find the speeds of the cars.

Answers

Answer:

Speed of the first car = x = 35km/hr

Speed of the second car = 25km /hr

Step-by-step explanation:

The calculation of speeds of the cars is given below:-

Assume that the speed of the 1st car which is opening from A = x km/hr

and assume the Speed of the 2nd car which is starting from B

= y km/hr  

As we know that

Time = Distance ÷ Speed

So, the distance lies between two places i.e.  A and B are

80km d = 80 km

1. now when the car moves in the similar  direction

So, the corresponding speed of them = (x + y)km/hr

Time = 8hr

d = 80km

[tex]8 = \frac{80}{(x + y)}\\\\x + y = \frac{80}{8}\\\\x + y = 10 ..... (i)[/tex]

2. when two cars moving in the inverse direction,

So, the corressponding speed = (x - y) km / hr

Time = 1 hr 20 minutes

That means

= (1 + 20 ÷ 60) hr

= (80 ÷ 60)

= 4/3 hr

d = 80km

Now

4 ÷ 3 = 80 ÷ (x -y)

x -y = (80 × 3) ÷ 4

x - y = 60 ..... (ii)

Now, we will sum equation 1 and equation 2 we will get

2x = 70

x = 35

now, Put x = 35 in (i) we will get

y = 25

Speed of the first car = x = 35km/hr

Speed of the second car = 25km /hr

Work out the size of angle x

Answers

Answer:

Let's name the angle right close to 51 as c.

c = 180°-51° since angles on a straight line is equal to 180°.

so c= 129°

so x = 129° since it corresponds to c

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Notice that the line that the variable x is on is equal to 180 degrees. Because the angle that it is next to is equal to 51 degrees, you subtract 180 from 51:

180-51=129

The final answer to this problem is 129 degrees.

What is an equation of the line that passes through the point
(-6, -2) and is parallel to the line 3x – 2y = 2?

Answers

Answer: y=3/2x+7

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the equation of the line that passes through the given point, let's first convert the given equation to slope-intercept form.

3x-2y=2           [subtract both sides by 3x]

-2y=-3x+2        [divide both sides by -2]

y=3/2x-1

Now that we have the equation in slope-intercept form, we know that the slope must stay the same because parallel lines NEVER touch. All we have to do is plug in the given point to find the y-intercept.

-2=3/2(-6)+b    [multiply]

-2=-9+b            [add both sides by 9]

b=7

Now, we know that the parallel equation is y=3/2x+7.

In the polynomial shown in the graph below, are there any places that could be described as either a local minimum or local maximum? Neither? Both?

Answers

Answer:

Local Min and Local Max

Step-by-step explanation:

Since our end behavior of our graph is goes on to infinity and negative infinity, we know that we will not have an absolute min or max. However, we will have relative/local min and max.

The local min and max are mins and maxes relative to the surrounding points. We see that our local min would happen around x ≈ 0.75 and our local max will happen at x ≈ -1.9.

Logan has two aquariums. One aquarium contains 1.3 cubic feet of water and the other contains 1.9 cubic feet of water. The water in the larger aquarium weighs 37.44 pounds more than the water in the smaller aquarium. Write an equation with a variable on both sides to represent the situation. Then find the weight of 1 cubic foot of water.

Answers

Answer:

62.4

Step-by-step explanation:

1. 1.3x+37.44=1.9x

2. 1.3x+37.44-1.3x=1.9x-1.3x

0.6x=37.44

3. x=37.44/0.6=62.4

The weight of 1 cubic foot of water is 62.4 lb.

Representing Equation with variable on both sides

Let 'x' pounds be the weight of 1 cubic foot of water.

We know one aquarium contains 1.3 cubic feet of water. So, the weight of 1.3 cubic feet of water = 1.3x

The other aquarium contains 1.9 cubic feet of water. So, the weight of 1.9 cubic feet of water = 1.9x

It is given in the question that the water in the larger aquarium weighs 37.44 pounds more than the water in the smaller aquarium.

The equation would be

1.9x  =  1.3x + 37.44

The above equation quality the condition of variable on both sides.

To find out the weight of 1 cubic foot of water, we will solve the above equation to find the value of x.

1.9x  =  1.3x + 37.44

1.9x - 1.3x = 37.44

0.6x  =  37.44

x = 37.44/0.6

x  =  62.4

So, the weight of 1 cubic foot of water is 62.4 lb.
