Answer:
D 40,000nm
Step-by-step explanation: 1nm/10^-9m * 10^-6/1um = 10^3 nm/um
Therefore in 40 microns there are:
40um * 10^3 nm/um = 40 * 10^3 nm = 40,000 nm
X is the number:
Therefore, the equation is:
8(x-2)=3(x+3)
8x-16=3x+9
8x-3x=9+16
5x=25
x=25/5
x=5
Answer: the equation is: 8(x-2)=3(x+3), and the number is: 5
You are correct. The scale factor is 1/5 = 0.2
Nice work.
Answer:
-10
Step-by-step explanation:
Hello! So the sweater was marked off by 20% and the sale price is $60. To find the original price of the sweater, we can write and solve a proportion. Set it up like this:
60/x = 80/100
This is because 60 is a part of the whole (the original price), and even though the price was marked down by 20%, you still pay 80% of that price. Let's cross multiply the values. 60 * 100 is 6,000. 80 * x is 80x. That makes 6,000 = 80x. Now, divide each side by 80 to isolate the x. 80x/80 cancels out. 6,000/80 is 75. Let's check this. 75 * 80% (0.8) is 60. There. x = 75. The regular price of the sweater is $75.
