We need to express this statement into a equation:
First of all. We will walk through the statement step by step into a mathematical language, so:
1. The sum of five and x:
x + 5
2. Twice the sum of five and x:
2(x + 5)
3. Eight less than x:
(x-8)
Finally the whole statement is:
4. <span>Twice the sum of five and x is eight less than x:
</span>
2(x + 5) = (x-8)
2x + 10 = x - 8
x = -18
Answer:
the transistors have L=1 mm of linear size
Step-by-step explanation:
For the silicon chip the area is A=1 cm² and for the transistors the area is At=L² (L=linear size) . Then since N= 10 billion transistors of area At should fit in the area A
A=N*At
A=N*L²
solving for L
L= √(A/N)
Assuming that 1 billion=10⁹ (short scale version of billion), then
L= √(A/N) = √(1 cm²/10⁹) = 1 cm / 10³ = 1 mm
then the transistors have L=1 mm of linear size
Multiply the number of minutes in an hour(60) by 4.5
