Answer:

  no

Step-by-step explanation:

Opposite numbers are the same distance from 0 on the number line, but in opposite directions. Steps I would follow:

  • first, check the directions to make sure they are opposite,
  • then read the digits, or count the tick marks or compare lengths with dividers or ruler or marks on a piece of paper to see if the distances are the same.

  3 is not the opposite of -6

__

  6 is the opposite of -6

Answer: Sample Response: Although 6 and 3 are on opposite sides of sea level, or 0, they are not opposites because they are unequal distances from 0.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 is 3 units above 0 on a vertical number line.

–6 is 6 units below 0 on a vertical number line.

3 is not the opposite of –6.

Opposites are equal distances from 0.

The diameter of a dime is 17.91 mm. The diameter of a strand of human hair is
irina [24]

The diameter of a dime tells us the circumference of a dime is approximately 299 times larger than human hair.

<h3>Diameter</h3>

The diameter of an object is used to calculated the circumference or area of the object. This also helps us to know the width of a circular object.

In this problem, the diameter tells us about the length of the each quantity.

The diameter of a dime tells us how wide the coin is and the diameter if a hair tells us the width of the hair.

Comparing both values

Dime = 17.91mm

Hair = 6.0*10^-2

Divide both quantity together.

17.91 / 6.0*10^-2 = 298.5≅299
