Answer:
x2 = 60
Step-by-step explanation:
If the variables x and y are inversely proportional, the product x * y is a constant.
So using x1 and y1 we can find the value of this constant:
Now, we can use the same constant to find x2:
So the value of x2 is 60.
Given that the volume of a cell is 50 cubic micrometers. It says to find the number of cells present in 1 cubic centimeter.
So we need to first convert the units of volume of a cell, then we can find the total number of cells in 1 cubic centimeter.
We know 1 meter = 100 centimeters = 1000000 micrometers
So 1 centimeter = 10000 micrometers
Taking Cubic powers on both sides :-
1 cubic centimeters = 10¹² cubic micrometers
1 cubic micrometers = 10⁻¹² cubic centimeters
50 cubic micrometers = 50 × 10⁻¹² = 5 × 10⁻¹¹ cubic centimeters
So volume of one cell = 5 × 10⁻¹¹ cubic centimeters
Number of cells = = 2 × 10¹⁰ cells.
So, total number of cells = 2 × 10¹⁰ cells.
