stepan [7]

Answer:

<em>The actual width of the hair is 20 / 150 = 0.13 mm</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Scaling</u>

Objects can be represented in a reduced or augmented size by using scaling which is basically multiplying or dividing by a constant factor. We use scaling in several applications of real-life.

The human hair is magnified 150 times by a micro-phtograph. This is the scale factor.

The hair can be seen 2 cm wide in the photograph.

Converting to millimeters, 2 cm = 2*10 = 20 millimeters.

The actual width of the hair is 20 / 150 = 0.13 mm

Distribute each term in one parenthesis to the other terms in the other parenthesis.

(x - 2) (2x + 3)

First, distribute x. When distributing, multiply

x(2x) = 2x²

x(3) = 3x

Next, distribute the other term, -2. Remember to change the signs.

-2(2x) = -4x

-2(3) = -6

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2x² + 3x - 4x - 6

Combine like terms

3x - 4x = -x

2x² - x - 6

-------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------------

2x² - x - 6 is your answer

Tommy is using a bucket to collect nuts from a nut tree. He then dumps the bucket into a barrel for shipping of the nuts. He not
NISA [10]

Answer:

  • 3/8 bucket

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that 1/4 bucket of nuts fills 2/3 of the barrel

PART A

<u>To find the amount of nuts that fills entire basket we can put this as:</u>

  • 1/4 bucket → 2/3 barrel
  • x bucket → 1 barrel

<u>Use cross-multiplication to find the value of x:</u>

  • x×2/3 = 1×1/4
  • x = 1/4 ÷ 2/3
  • x = 1/4×3/2
  • x = 3/8 bucket

PART B

  • Using the bucket to barrel ratio to solve the problem. Having the number of required buckets as x and considering full barrel as 1 helps to find the value of x.
