Okay! Metric system.
K(kilo)
H(hecto)
D(eca)
B(gram, liter, etc.)
d(deci)
C(centi)
M(milli)

Since we have to go from Milli to Kilo, we count the number of spaces between them. 6 spaces. 6 zeroes. Slap a one onto that (since it's one kilo and one milli)
and you've got 1000000. One Million. It's not 0.000001 because it goes up, or if it were horizontal, to the left, meaning the decimal point goes to the right. (yes, confusing. it's hard to explain without visuals) This sounds really confusing, and even reading back at it, it's confusing for me, but I'm not good at explaining. Sorry.

What is the slope of the line?

Alexxx [7]

Answer:

Should be, (-3,5) (if rise over run aka y,x)

Step-by-step explanation:

When attempting to find a slope like this, you need to locate pretty points. Pretty points are any time the line meets an exact corner on the box. If you look at -3,1, you can see the line makes a pretty point there. Then, try to find the next one, which is at 2,-3. Once you found these pretty points, try to connect them by drawing a line towards each other THAT IS STRAIGHT until those intersect. Where they intersect is where the slope of the line is. In this case, when I drew the line, they met at down three, over (right) 5.

Palindrome numbers are numbers that read the same foward or backward. Here are some palindrome numbers: 11, 121, 75257, and 1234

KatRina [158]

Answer:

99.

Step-by-step explanation:

A palindrome number is one that can be read in the same way both from the front and from the back. A clear example is the number 242, which starts and ends in the same way from the front or back.

Between 10 and 100, there are 9 palindromes, from 11 to 99. In turn, between 100 and 200, 200 and 300 and so on, each hundred has within it 10 palindromes (101, 111, 121, 131, 141 , 151, 161, 171, 181 and 191, for example).

Therefore, considering the 9 hundreds between 100 and 1000, there will be 90 palindromes, which added to the 9 between 10 and 100 give a total of 99 palindromes.

A statue casts a shadow that is 9 ft long. A boy that is 4 ft tall casts a shadow that is 6 ft long. How tall is the statue?

kumpel [21]

Answer:

6 feet tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

The boy is 4 ft tall, but he casts a 6 ft long shadow. You need to find how long a shadow would be if a person/thing was just 1 ft tall.

To do this, you would need to divide 4 by 4, and 6 by 4 as well.

6/4 is 1.5, or 1 and a half.

If a person (or a thing) is 1 foot tall, the statue will cast 1 and a half feet long shadow.

The statue casts a 9 ft long shadow.

Since we already figured out 1 ft = 1 and 1/2 ft shadow, and since the statue casts a 9 foot long shadow, you need to divide 9 by 1.5.

(You'll get 6.)

This means that the statue is 6 feet tall, and it casts a 9 foot long shadow.

In a USA TODAY/Gallup Poll, respondents favored Barack Obama over Mitt Romney in terms of likeability, 61% to 32% (Los Angeles T

dybincka [34]

Answer:

a) percentage of respondents that favored neither Obama nor Romney in terms of likeability = 7%

b) For a given survey of 500, the number of respondents that favored Obama than Romney is 145.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that none of those surveyed can favour the two candidates at the same time,

n(Universal set) = n(U) = 100%

n(Obama) = n(O) = 61%

n(Romney) = n(R) = 32%

n(That favour Obama and Romney) = n(O n R) = 0%

To calculate for the number that favour neither of the candidates

n(O' n R')

n(U) = n(O) + n(R) + n(O n R) + n(O' n R')

100 = 61 + 32 + 0 + n(O' n R')

n(O' n R') = 100 - 93 = 7%

b) For a given survey of 500, how many more respondents favored Obama than Romney?

Number of those surveyed that favour Obama = 61% of 500 = 305

Number of those surveyed that favour Romney = 32% of 500 = 160

Difference = 305 - 160 = 145
