Answer: A. 2\times10^{-6}.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: The diameter of bacterium = 0.0000029 meter

≈  0.000002 meter  [ with 6 decimal places]

=\dfrac{2}{1000000}=\dfrac{2}{10^6}

=2\times10^{-6} meters    [\dfrac{1}{a^n}=a^{-n}]

i.e. 2\times10^{-6} closest to 0.0000029.

Hence, the correct option is A. 2\times10^{-6}.

Question below please help
damaskus [11]

Answer:

  B  They are similar, but not congruent.

Step-by-step explanation:

Reflection, rotation, and translation are "rigid" transformations. They result in congruent figures.

Dilation is not a rigid transformation. For any dilation scale factor other than 1, the figures will be different sizes, so will not be congruent. They will be similar. (Angles will be congruent, and lines/sides will be parallel.)

The combination of dilation (by 0.5) and reflection results in similar, but not congruent, figures.

What’s the 30th of the linear sequence<br><br> -5,-2,1,4,7
Vika [28.1K]

The 30th term of the given sequence is 82.

<u>Step-by-step explanation</u>:

  • The general form of an Arithmetic Progression is a, a + d, a + 2d, a + 3d and so on.
  • The given linear sequence (-5,-2,1,4,7) is in the form of Arithmetic Progression with a common difference of 3.
  • -5, -5+3 = -2, -2+3 = 1, 1+3 = 4 and so on.

The nth term is given by the formula nth term = a + (n - 1) d

where  

a = first term

d = common difference

<u>To find the 30th term in the given sequence :</u>

The first term, a = -5 and the common difference, d = 3.

30th term = -5 + (30-1) 3

⇒ -5 + (29) 3

⇒ -5 + 87

⇒ 82

Therefore, the 30th term in the given sequence is 82.
