Kevin had to measure the diameter of a hair strand and the diameter of a grain of sand for his science experiment. He found the

diameter of the hair strand to be 0.00006 inches and the diameter of a grain of sand to be 1.3 × 10-3 inches.

This is the concept of linear scale factors. 
Diameter of hair strand is 0.00006=6×10^-5 inches
Diameter of sand grain is 1.3x10^-3 inches
Thus the the number of times the hair sand grain is bigger than hair strand will be:
linear scale factor=(diameter of sand grain)/(diameter of hair strand)
=(1.3×10^-3)/(6×10^-5)
=21 2/3 times

Answer:

a) 72 cm^2

b) 9 cm^2

c) 9 cm^2

d) 60.39 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

a) the the length is 12 cm and the width is 6 cm. Area = lw

A=(12)(6)

A=72 cm^2

b) base equals 3 cm

Height equals 6 cm

A=1/2(3)(6)

A= 9 cm^2

c) base = 3 cm

height=6 cm

Area=1/2(3)(6)

A=9 cm^2

d) to to find the area of the parallelogram, You need to use Pythagorean theorem for one of the triangles.

3^2 + 6^2 = x^2

9 + 36 = x^2

45=x^2

✓45 = ✓x^2

x = 6.71 cm

12-3 = 9

now that you have all the sides for the parallelogram, multiply 6.71 times 9 to get the area.

A= 60.39 cm^2

Which point, (5/2, 3) or (3/2, 20), is on the graph of 2x - 2/3y =3?<br><br> show steps pls!
Anna11 [10]
You should try both points
put  x=5/2 and y=3
5-2=3
the first one is on the graph
put  x=3/2 and y=20
3-40/3≠3
the second one is not on the graph

Step-by-step explanation:

hello : the system is :

y = 4x - 3

y= -x - 13

put x = -2

y = 4(-2) - 3=- 11

y= -(-2) - 13 = -11
