The width of a strand of fiber is 19.2 micrometers. if 1500 strands are adhered side by side, how wide would the resulting fabric be if measured in centimeters?

The fabric would be 2.88 cm

Explanation:

1- getting width of fabric in micrometers:

We are given that a single strand is 19.2 micrometers and that the fabric would be formed by connecting 1500 strand.

This means that:

width of fabric = 19.2 * 1500 = 28800 micrometers

2- getting the width in cm:

The basics of conversions states that:

1 micrometer = 0.0001 cm

To convert 28800 micrometers to cm, all you have to do is cross multiplication as follows:

1 micrometer ....................> 0.0001 centimeters

28800 micrometers .......> ?? centimeters

width of fabric = = 2.88 cm

Hope this helps :)

the length of o'p' is .

step-by-step explanation:

it is given that the quadrilateral m'n'o'p' is the image of quadrilateral mnop after dilation.

the center of dilation is origin and the scale factor is 1.5.

in dilation the image and preimge are similar figures. it means the sides of image and preimage are proportional.

the scale factor is defined as

the scale factor is 1.5.

multiply both sides by op.

note: if the value of op is given, then multiply the value of op with 1.5 to get the length of side o'p'.

therefore length of o'p' is .
