After clarification we see the respective diameters are

A = 2.3 \times 10^{-a}

B = 2.3 \times 10^{-b}

We're asked about the ratio

A:B =  2.3 \times 10^{-a} :  2.3 \times 10^{-b} = 10^{-a} : 10^{-b} = 10^b : 10^a = 10^{b-a} : 1

Now we can go through the choices.

A. If a = 4 and b = 6, then cell a is 100 times greater than cell b.

A:B=10^{6-4}:1 = 100:1

It would be more proper to say the diameter of cell A is 100 times the diameter of cell B, but yes, this is TRUE.

B. If a = 4 and b = 6, then cell b is 100 times greater than cell a.

FALSE. 10 to the minus 4 is 100 times bigger than 10 to the minus 6, so a is bigger.

C. If a = 4 and b = 6, then cell a is 2 times greater than cell b.

FALSE. We already calculated its 100 times bigger.

D. If a = 4 and b = 6, then cell b is 2 times greater than cell a.

FALSE.

Answer:

A. If a = 4 and b = 6, then cell a is 100 times greater than cell b.

Step-by-step explanation:

2.3/2.3= 1

10(-4)/10(-6)=10(2)

your answer is 100, cell a is 100 times greater than cell b.

3. A straight line passes through two points with
kirza4 [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the slope of the line

(x₁ , y₁) = (6 , 8)   & (x₂ , y₂) = (0 , 5)

Slope = \frac{y_{2}-y_{1}}{x_{2}-x_{1}}\\\\=\frac{5-8}{0-6}\\\\=\frac{-3}{-6}\\\\=\frac{1}{2}

m = 1/2  ;(x₁ , y₁) = (6 , 8)

y - y₁ = m(x - x₁)

y - 8 = \frac{1}{2}(x - 6)\\\\y - 8 =\frac{1}{2}x -\frac{1}{2}*6\\\\y - 8 =\frac{1}{2}x- 3\\\\y = \frac{1}{2}x - 3 + 8\\\\y = \frac{1}{2}x + 5
