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

Well if she missed 27, we would need to divide 27 by 3 which gives us 9, then we’d multiply 7 by nine and it’s 63. She made 63 free throws

Answer:

-103

243

Step-by-step explanation:

(q•r)(5) = q(r(5))

r(5) = 2(5²) + 1 = 51

q(51) = -2(51) - 1 = -103

(r•q)(5) = r(q(5))

q(5) = -2(5) - 1 = -11

r(-11) = 2(-11)² + 1 = 243

Please I don’t understand help me?!

Answer:

BD = 35

Step-by-step explanation:

Calculate CD in right triangle ABC, then BD in right triangle BCD

Using Pythagoras' identity in both triangles.

The square on the hypotenuse is equal to the sum of the squares on the other two sides.

In Δ ADC

CD² + AD² = AC² , substitute values

CD² + 9² = 15²

CD² + 81 = 225 ( subtract 81 from both sides )

CD = 144 ( take the square root of both sides )

CD = \sqrt{144} = 12

----------------------------------------------------------------

In Δ BCD

BD² + CD² = BC² , substitute values

BD² + 12² = 37²

BD² + 144 = 1369 ( subtract 144 from both sides )

BD² = 1225 ( take the square root of both sides )

BD = \sqrt{1225} = 35
