How do you solve 0.004 dm + 0.12508 dm?

1 answer:

7 0

0.004 of something added to 0.12508 of the same thing
adds up to 0.12908 of it.

The thing could be a glass of water, a sheet of paper,
a pound of ground beef, a gallon of gas, or a snowball.
In this problem, it just happens to be a dm.

Suppose that, from measurements in a microscope, you determine that a certain bacterium covers an area of 1.50 μm2. Convert this

Paladinen [302]

1 m = 1 000 000 ym

converted other way we can say that:

1 ym = $10^{-6}$ m

Now, since we have ym^2 which is ym*ym which means:
1 ym^2 = $(10^{-6}) ^2 = 10^{-12}$ m

we have 1,5 ym^2 which means that answer is:
$1.5* 10^{-12} m$

With 51 gallons of fuel in its tank, the airplane has a weight of 2390.7 pounds. What is the weight of the plane with 81 gallons

Shtirlitz [24]

Answer: 2561.7 pounds

Explanation:

If we assume the total weight of an airplane (in pounds units) as a <u>linear function</u> of the amount of fuel in its tank (in gallons) and we make a Weight vs amount of fuel graph, which resulting slope is 5.7, we can use the slope equation of the line:

$m=\frac{Y-Y_{1}}{X-X_{1}}$ (1)

Where:

$m=5.7$ is the slope of the line

$Y_{1}=2390.7pounds$ is the airplane weight with 51 gallons of fuel in its tank (assuming we chose the Y axis for the airplane weight in the graph)

$X_{1}=51gallons$ is the fuel in airplane's tank for a total weigth of 2390.7 pounds (assuming we chose the X axis for the a,ount of fuel in the tank in the graph)
