Do you believe that the Us should convert to the metric system explain why or why not

This is an opinion question so I’ll give both sides.

The US should convert since the rest of the world is using it and it will make communicating ideas and thoughts more easily. This is why the scientific world uses it. The metric system is also easier since it’s based on powers of ten.

Now for the other view...

The US shouldn’t convert since the Imperial system is used at a lot of places. On highway signs, in notebooks, it’s taught in school too. Switching to the metric system would cost a lot of money just changing highway signs and changing units on chip bags and things like that. All Americans would also need to learn a new system too

Lesechka [4]

Answer: Long -term capital gain

Step-by-step explanation:

Serena is single, so based on the Taxpayer Relief Act of 1997, she would pay no capital gains tax on the first $250,000 gain.

Therefore, $300,000 - $250,000 =  $50,000

<em>The remaining $50,000 gain is taxable because of her being single and it has been her principal residence for three years.</em>

cluponka [151]
<h2>Answer:</h2><h2>volume of the cylinder = 2πx^{3}</h2>

Step-by-step explanation:

The height of a cylinder is twice the radius of its base.

Let the height of the cylinder = 2x

Let the radius of the cylinder = x

By formula, volume of the cylinder = πr^{2} h

here r = x, h = 2x

substituting the values in the equation, we get

volume of the cylinder = πr^{2} h =  π x^{2} (2x)

volume of the cylinder = 2πx^{3}

2. Substitute the numbers into the correct values.

105 - 15 = ?/5 = 18

105 - 18 = ?/5 = 3.48

105 - 12 = ?/5 = 18.6

105 - 23 = ?/5 = 16.4

It is A because it is the only one in which the answer is equivalent to the cost.
