The image shows a dust mite as seen under a microscope. The scale of the drawing to dust is 100:1
1 answer:
The actual length of the dust termite observed under the microscope is 1.5 mm
- The scale of image produced under the microscope 100 : 1
- This means image is magnified 100 times its original size as microscopes are used to enlarge or magnify the size objects.
- Taking the measured size of the dust termite under the microscope in millimeter = 150 mm
The actual length of the termite will be :
- Measured size under microscope ÷ 100
- 150 mm ÷ 100
- 1.5 mm
Therefore, the actual length of the dust termite is about 1.5 mm

Answer :
it says that width is half the length . which also implies that length is double the width . as we shift the 2 from denominator , it gets multiply on RHS
let the length be 2x
and
width be = x
length × breadth = 34
2x × x = 34
2x^2 = 34
x = width = 5.8309518948
