Find the value of x.

1 answer:

4 0

Because corresponding sides of similar figures are in proportion, we can obtain the equation:

(x+3)/4 = (2x-4)/3

Multiplying both sides by 12,

3(x+3)=4(2x-4)
3x+9=8x-16
x=5

About how many times larger than the diameter of a red blood cell is the diameter of a grain of sand? Write your answer using a

Alchen [17]

Answer:

$0.29\cdot10^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Red blood cell: $8.4\cdot 10^{-6}$

Grain of sand: $2.4\cdot 10^{-3}$

The "how many times larger" part can be figured out by forming a ratio between the two diameters above:

$\frac{2.4\cdot 10^{-3}}{8.4\cdot 10^{-6}} = \frac{2.4}{8.4}\cdot\frac{10^{-3}}{10^{-6}}\approx 0.29\cdot 10^{-3-(-6)}=0.29\cdot10^3$

Note that dividing the powers of ten corresponds to subtracting the denominator power from the numerator power of 10.
