1 answer:

6 0

Slope of line perpendicular to ax+by=c is b/a

given
-2x-8y=18
slope of perpendicular is -8/-2=4

y=4x+b
find B
(4,5)
x=4,y=5
5=4(5)+b
5=20+b
minus 20
-15=b

y=4x-15

The diameter of the average cell in the human body is 1 x 10-5 meters. The diameter of a grain of sand is about 2 x 10-4 meters.

MariettaO [177]

PART A:

Scientific notation is given by A×10ⁿ where A is any number in a unit and 'n' is an integer.

0.000025 = 2.5×10⁻⁵

PART B:

Diameter of grain of sand ÷ Diameter of human body average cell
(2×10⁻⁴) ÷ (1×10⁻⁵)
(2÷1) × (10⁻⁴÷10⁻⁵)
2 × (10⁻⁴ ⁻ ⁻⁵) = 2 × 10⁽⁻⁴⁺⁵⁾ = 2 × 10¹ = 20 times bigger

PART C:

The diameter of human body's average cell in nanometer
1 × 10⁻⁵ metre = 1 × 10⁻⁵ × 10⁹ = 1 × 10⁽⁻⁵⁺⁹⁾ = 1 × 10⁴ nanometer

PART D:

Smallest bacteria = 300 nanometer
300 nm = 300 ÷ 10⁹ = (3 × 10²) ÷ 10⁹ = 3 × (10²⁻⁹) = 3 × 10⁻⁷ meter

PART E:

Laws of exponents that are applied in scientific notation is

xᵇ × xᵃ = x⁽ᵇ⁺ᵃ⁾
xᵇ ÷ xᵃ = x⁽ᵇ⁻ᵃ⁾

How do you do the distributive property for 7*7

Troyanec [42]

The distributive property: a(b + c) = ab + ac

7 × 7 = 7 × (10 - 3) = (7)(10) - (7)(3) = 70 - 21 = 49

7 × 7 = 7 × (5 + 2) = (7)(5) + (7)(2) = 35 + 14 = 49
