Answer:

10000 micrometers.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have to convert the 1cm length of the edge of the cube to micrometers Remember the following conversion units:

1\times 10^{-6} m= 1 \mu m and 1\times 10^{-2} m= 1 cm denoting m for meters, cm for centimeters and μm or micrometers. In particular, dividing on both sides of the first equation we get the identity 1=\frac{1\mu m}{1\times 10^{-6} m}

Combine the previous information to get:

1 cm=1\times 10^{-2} m= (1\times 10^{-2} m) \cdot (1)= (1\times 10^{-2} m)\frac{1\mu m}{1\times 10^{-6} m}=\frac{10^{-2}}{10^{-6}}\mu m=10^4 \mu m=10000 \mu m

Note how we "cancelled" the m symbolically as if it was a variable. This is one of the methods to convert units, and the fractions involved are known as conversion factors.

Janice makes a box in the shape of the rectangular prism. Show your work and explain how you solved using first, next & last
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The surface area is 376in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The surface area of a rectangular prism is calculated using the formula;

S.A=2[lw+lh+wh]

The length of the rectangular prism is l=10in

The height is h=6in

The width is w=8in

The surface area

S.A=2[10(8)+10(6)+8(6)]

S.A=2[80+60+48]

S.A=2(188)

S.A=376in^2

How do you solve this equation: -2m+3=|15+m|
Elden [556K]

Any number inside the modulus sign becomes positive. This means |15+m|=|-(15+m)|=|-15-m| and so we have,

-2m+3=|15+m| \Rightarrow \left \Big\{ {{-2m+3=15+m} \atop{-2m+3=-15-m}} \right

Solving these gives us

-2m+3=15+m \Rightarrow m=-4

-2m+3=-15-m \Rightarrow = m=18

However if we check the second solution in the original equation we obtain -2(18)+3=|15+18| \Rightarrow -33=33. This is false and so m=18 can't be a solution.

Therefore the only solution is m=-4.

(Note: I'm not sure why the second solution didn't work but when there's a modulus sign involved it always pays to check your final answers to be sure. I'll have a think about it but in case you find out before I do, I'd be interested to know in the comments.)
