1 m = 1 x 10⁶ μm
1 m² = (1 x 10⁶)² μm²
1 m² = 1 x 10¹² μm²

area = 1.5 / 1 x 10¹² m²
Area = 1.5 x 10⁻¹² m²

What is the value of x in this proportion?

astra-53 [7]

Answer:

(a) x=−20 1/2

Step-by-step explanation:

Multiply by the product of the denominators and solve the resulting linear equation in the usual way.

$\dfrac{2}{7}=\dfrac{-5}{x+3}\\\\2(x+3)=-5(7)\qquad\text{multiply by $7(x+3)$}\\\\2x+6=-35\qquad\text{simplify}\\\\2x=-41\qquad\text{subtract 6}\\\\\boxed{x=-20\dfrac{1}{2}}\qquad\text{divide by 2}$
