Math Problem Statement

The image contains various problems related to mathematical concepts including variables, units, formula manipulation, and unit conversion.

Solution

Let's walk through the concepts and problems in the image you've shared.

  1. Variables vs. Units
    It explains that a variable represents a measurable quantity in a formula. For example, in the table:

    • Time is denoted as "t" with units like seconds (s) or hours (h).
    • Distance is "d" in meters (m) or kilometers (km).
    • Speed is "v" in meters per second (m/s) or kilometers per hour (km/h).
  2. Manipulating Formulas
    This section guides how to rearrange formulas to solve for different variables. For example:

    • The formula A=l×wA = l \times w (area = length × width) can be rearranged to solve for length or width.
      • a) To solve for ll, rearrange to l=Awl = \frac{A}{w}.
      • b) To solve for ww, rearrange to w=Alw = \frac{A}{l}.

    Similarly, for speed v=dtv = \frac{d}{t}:

    • a) To solve for distance dd, rearrange to d=v×td = v \times t.
    • b) To solve for time tt, rearrange to t=dvt = \frac{d}{v}.
  3. Converting Between Units

    • Several conversion problems are provided. Here’s how to approach each:
      • a) Convert meters to centimeters: 1m=100cm1 \, \text{m} = 100 \, \text{cm}
      • b) Convert kilometers to meters: 1km=1000m1 \, \text{km} = 1000 \, \text{m}
      • c) Convert kilograms to grams: 1kg=1000g1 \, \text{kg} = 1000 \, \text{g}
      • d) Convert milligrams to grams: 1g=1000mg1 \, \text{g} = 1000 \, \text{mg}
      • e) Convert centimeters to meters: 1cm=0.01m1 \, \text{cm} = 0.01 \, \text{m}
      • f) Convert grams to kilograms: 1kg=1000g1 \, \text{kg} = 1000 \, \text{g}
      • g) Convert milligrams to kilograms: Combine conversions 1kg=1000000mg1 \, \text{kg} = 1000000 \, \text{mg}
      • h) Convert meters to millimeters: 1m=1000mm1 \, \text{m} = 1000 \, \text{mm}

    New: Converting m/s to km/h

    • Use the formula to convert m/s\text{m/s} to km/h\text{km/h}:
      ms×1km1000m×3600s1h=36001000=3.6km/h per m/s\frac{\text{m}}{\text{s}} \times \frac{1 \, \text{km}}{1000 \, \text{m}} \times \frac{3600 \, \text{s}}{1 \, \text{h}} = \frac{3600}{1000} = 3.6 \, \text{km/h per m/s}.
