A micro-photograph of a human hair shows the hair magnified 150 times. If the hair is
stepan [7]

Answer:

<em>The actual width of the hair is 20 / 150 = 0.13 mm</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Scaling</u>

Objects can be represented in a reduced or augmented size by using scaling which is basically multiplying or dividing by a constant factor. We use scaling in several applications of real-life.

The human hair is magnified 150 times by a micro-phtograph. This is the scale factor.

The hair can be seen 2 cm wide in the photograph.

Converting to millimeters, 2 cm = 2*10 = 20 millimeters.

The actual width of the hair is 20 / 150 = 0.13 mm

Tom and Martin both worked 9 hours this week and sold $360 worth of meals. Their hourly wages are $2.15 and $2.50, respectively.
serious [3.7K]
Tom and Martin worked <u>9 hours</u> this week.

These are their hourly wages:

Tom: $2.15

Martin: $2.50

This means that:

Tom earned 9 x $2.15 in wages, which is equal to $19.35.

Martin earned 9 x $2.50 in wages, which is equal to $22.50.

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

Now, we've been told that Tom and Martin sold $360 worth
of meals but we were not told how much they received in tips.

For all intents and purposes, let's say that they received $n
in tips. 15% of $n in tips would be less than 20% of $n 
in tips. Now, Martin is already going to be receiving a higher
wage, and the fact that he is going to be receiving 20% of
$n in tips compounds the logical conclusion that at the end
of the week, he'd be leaving work with more money than Tom.

Answer:

Martin made more money than Tom.
