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

OleMash [197]
20 shares at 10 1/2 (or 10.5) = 20 * 10.5 = 210
20 shares at 11 1/4 (or 11.25) = 20 * 11.25 = 225

so the profit made would be : 225 - 210 = $ 15 <==

N a circle with a radius of 2.8 cm, an arc is intercepted by a central angle of π5 radians. what is the arc length? use 3.14 for
Vilka [71]
By definition, the arc length is given by:
 arc = (theta) * (R)
 Where,
 theta: central angle
 R: radius
 Substituting values we have:
 arc = (π / 5) * (2.8)
 Rewriting we have:
 arc = ((3.14) / 5) * (2.8)
 arc = 1.7584 cm
 Round to the hundredth:
 arc = 1.76 cm
 Answer:
 
the arc length is:
 
arc = 1.76 cm

The graph of the function f(x) = (x + 2)(x + 6) is shown below.
iren [92.7K]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = (x + 2)(x +6)

1) The function is positive for all real values of x where   x > –4 :

COUNTER-EXAMPLE : x =  - 3   you have -3>-4 but   (-3+2)(-3+6) = -1 ×3 =-3 no positive .

2) The function is positive for all real values of x where

x < –6 or x > –3.

COUNTER-EXAMPLE : x =  - 2.5   you have -2.5>-3 but   (-2.5+2)(-2.5+6) = -0.5 ×3.5 =-1.75 no positive .

same method for the statement : "The function is negative for all real values of x where

x < –2."

conclusion : statement about the function is true: "The function is negative for all real values of x where

–6 < x < –2."
