A certain bacterium covers an area of

1.50 μm² = 1.50 × 10⁻¹² m²Further explanation

Some units of length and its conversion that need to be recalled are:

1 ~ foot = 30.48 ~ cm

1 ~ inch = 2.54 ~ cm

1 ~ foot = 12 ~ inches

1 ~ mile = 1609.34 ~ metres

1 ~ yard = 0,9144 ~ metres

$1 ~\mu m = 1 \times 10^{-6} ~ m$

Let us now tackle the problem !

Given:

Bacterium covers an area of 1.50 μm²

$1 ~\mu m = 1 \times 10^{-6} ~ m$

$1 ~\mu m^2 = (1 \times 10^{-6})^2 ~ m^2 = 1 \times 10^{-12} ~ m^2$

$\large {\boxed {1.50 ~\mu m^2 = 1.50 \times 10^{-12} ~ m^2} }$

A certain bacterium covers an area of

1.50 μm² = 1.50 × 10⁻¹² m²Learn moreVelocity of Runner : linkKinetic Energy : linkAcceleration : linkThe Speed of Car : linkAnswer details

Answer from: multibeastpr

The area covered by the bacterium in square meters is $\boxed{1.50 \times {{10}^{ - 12}}{\text{ }}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}}.$

Further explanation:

Given:

A certain bacterium covers an area of $1.50\mu {m^2}.$

Explanation:

The area covered by the bacteria is $1.50\mu {m^2}.$

Area is the square of the length. The unit of area is square units.

$\mu$ represents the micrometer.

In one micrometer there are ${10^{ - 6}}meter.$

$1\mu m = 1 \times {10^{ - 6}}{\text{ m}}$

In one micrometer square there are ${10^{ - 12}}meter.$

$1\mu {m^2} = 1 \times {10^{ - 12}}{\text{ }}{{\text{m}}^2}.$

$1.50\mu {m^2}$ in ${m^2}$ can be expressed as follows,

$\begin{aligned}1.50\mu {m^2} &= 1.50 \times {\left( {1 \times {{10}^{ - 6}}} \right)^2}\\&= 1.50 \times {10^{ - 12}}{\text{ }}{{\text{m}}^2}\\\end{aligned}$

The area covered by the bacterium in square meters is $\boxed{1.50 \times {{10}^{ - 12}}{\text{ }}{{\text{m}}^{\text{2}}}}.$

Answer from: Quest

step-by-step explanation:

f(x)=2x^2 -1

translation is a function transformation that transform the function in a way of translating. by translating the function its graph is moved up an down. moving the function f(x) 2 units to the left will be the new function g(x) with the equation: g(x)=f(x+2)=2(x+2)^2 -1
