List the measurement below from smallest to largest .7 cm 18 mm 1 m 3 dm
Ivanshal [37]
In order to list the measurements from smallest to largest, we convert all the measurement to a common unit. In this item, we convert the given to meters, m.

A. The conversion factor to be used here is 1 m = 100 cm
      (7 cm)(1 m / 100 cm) = 0.07 m

B. Conversion factor: 1 m = 1000 mm
     (18 mm) (1 m / 1000 mm) = 0.018 m

C. Let us list this as is, 1 m

D. The conversion factor here is 1 m = 10 dm
    (3 dm)(1 m / 10 dm) = 0.3 m

By the converted values, we are then able to arrange the given measurements.Hence, the arrangement should be 18 mm, 7 cm, 3 dm, and 1 m.

How do you solve for a y and x intercept?
FrozenT [24]

For a y-intercept, set x = 0 in your equation. Remember that a y-intercept intercepts the y-axis, which is found at x = 0. Thus, setting x = 0 will give you the place where your equation intercepts the y-axis.


For an x-intercept, do the opposite, set y = 0. This is because the x-axis is found at y = 0. Similar to the y-intercept, this will find you the point where your equation intercepts the x-axis.
