Metric is used world-wide and is used everywhere except in english places (britan and USA)

some examples why metric is nice

base 10 system
1cm=10mm=0.1m=0.01km
1cm^3=1ml
1000cm^3=1L
1000ml=1L

0 C⁰=freezing tempurature
100 C⁰=boinling tempurature



in english
12in=1foot
3ft=1yd
16oz=1lb
8oz=1cup
3tsbs=1tbs
2c=1pt
2pt=1qt
4qt=1gal
32 F⁰=freezing
2hundred something=boiling


metric is nice because everything is in multiplules of 10

and also this exerpt from a book
"<span>In metric, one milliliter of water occupies one cubic centimeter, weighs one gram, and requires one calorie of energy to heat up by one degree centigrade which is 1 per cent of the difference between its freezing point and its boiling point. An amount of hydrogen weighing the same amount has exactly one mole of atoms in it. Whereas in the American system the answer to <em>'How much energy does it take to boil a room-temperature gallon of water?'</em> is go **** yourself because you can't directly relate any of those quantities "</span>

If you vertically compress the absolute value parent function, f(x) = x1, by a
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given the absolute value parent function f(x) = |x| and this function is vertically compressed by a factor 3.

If we multiply the function with a constant (say a) then the parent function will get stretch/compressed vertically.

We have below conditions for vertical stretch and compression.

a > 1 => vertically stretch

0 < a < 1 => vertically compression

Hence, in order to vertical compression by a factor 3, we have to multiply the whole function by 1/3

Therefore, the equation for new function is

In AABC, MZA = 16°, mZB = 49°, and<br> a = 4. Find c to the nearest tenth.
zhannawk [14.2K]

Answer:

  (c)  13.2

Step-by-step explanation:

The sum of angles in a triangle is 180°, so angle C is ...

  C = 180° -A -B

  C = 180° -16° -49° = 115°

The measure of side c can be found from the Law of Sines:

  c/sin(C) = a/sin(A)

  c = a·sin(C)/sin(A) = 4·sin(115°)/sin(16°)

  c ≈ 13.2
