32 mm = length × 100

(32 mm)/100 = length . . . . . divide both sides by 100

0.32 mm = length

The actual length of the organism is 0.32 mm.

Let L be the actual length.  Then 100 L = 32 mm, and so L = 3 1/8 mm or 3.125 mm.

If 1200 cm2 of material is available to make a box with a square base and an open top, find the largest possible volume of the b
Colt1911 [192]

Answer:

The largest possible volume V is ;

V = l^2 × h

V = 20^2 × 10 = 4000cm^3

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Volume of a box = length × breadth × height= l×b×h

In this case the box have a square base. i.e l=b

Volume V = l^2 × h

The surface area of a square box

S = 2(lb+lh+bh)

S = 2(l^2 + lh + lh) since l=b

S = 2(l^2 + 2lh)

Given that the box is open top.

S = l^2 + 4lh

And Surface Area of the box is 1200cm^2

1200 = l^2 + 4lh ....1

Making h the subject of formula

h = (1200 - l^2)/4l .....2

Volume is given as

V = l^2 × h

V = l^2 ×(1200 - l^2)/4l

V = (1200l - l^3)/4

the maximum point is at dV/dl = 0

dV/dl = (1200 - 3l^2)/4

dV/dl = (1200 - 3l^2)/4 = 0

3l^2= 1200

l^2 = 1200/3 = 400

l = √400

I = 20cm

Since,

h = (1200 - l^2)/4l

h = (1200 - 20^2)/4×20

h = (800)/80

h = 10cm

The largest possible volume V is ;

V = l^2 × h

V = 20^2 × 10 = 4000cm^3

How many discontinuities does the piecewise function have.?
Aleks04 [339]

In piecewise linear functions, the endpoint of one segment and the initial point of the next segment can have the same x-coordinate but a different value of f(x).

Such difference in values is called a step or discontinuity and such a function is called a discontinuous function.

Here in this case, there are 3 discontinuities: x=-3, x=3 and x = 5.

x = -3 because x is smaller than or greater than -3 but not equal.

x = 3 since greater than 3 in one of the inequalities.

x = 5 since x is smaller than 5 in one of the limits.

Please help me, I will give brainliest
ipn [44]

Answer:

        8w² < 4w(150-w)

Step-by-step explanation:

Square area of  living  : w  · w  =  w²

Money spent : 8 · w²

Square area of  artichokes : (150 - w) · w    

Money earned : 4 · w · (150 - w)

Julia manages to save some money every week. That means that the money earned is bigger than the money spent ( the money spent is less than the money earned)

8 · w² < 4 · w · (150 - w)

Determine whether the vectors u and v are parallel, orthogonal, or neither. u = (5,4) v = (-10,9)
12345 [234]

Answer:

Neither

Step-by-step explanation:

5 x -10 = -50

4 x 9 = 36

-50 + 36 = -14 and therefore can not be orthogonal

sqrt(25+16)=sqrt(41)

sqrt(100+81)=sqrt(181)

sqrt(41) x sqrt(181) is not equal to -14 so therefore it is not parallel

So the answer is then neither
