Amedical researcher has two petri dishes containing viruses. dish a has a population density of 1.2 viruses per square millimeter. dish a has an area of about 2,826 square millimeters. if both petri dishes have the same population density, approximately how many viruses are in dish a?

= 3,391 viruses

Therefore; for an area of 2,826 square millimeters, there will be;

  = 2,826 multiplied by 1.2 viruses

 = 2,826 × 1.2

 = 3391.2 viruses,

and since we can have a fraction or decimal virus then the population would be 3391 viruses

There are 3391.2 viruses in petri dish A.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given statements : The population density is 1.2 viruses per square millimeter.

each square millimeter is representing  population of 1.2 viruses.

There is a directly proportional relation between the area and the population  .

Let x be the population of virus in perti dish A.

Therefore,

Hence, there are 3391.2 viruses in petri dish A.

answer:   segregation violated the equal protection clause of the 14th amendment, which holds that no state can “deny to any person within its jurisdiction the equal protection of the laws.”

details/explanation:

brown v. board of education of topeka, decided by the us supreme court in 1954, ruled that all americans are entitled to the same civil liberties and protections in regard to access to education. until that decision, it was legal to segregate schools according to race, so that black students could not attend the same schools as white students.   an older supreme court decision, plessy v. ferguson (1896), had said that separate, segregated public facilities were acceptable as long as the facilities offered were equal in quality.   in the case of brown v. board of education, that standard was challenged and defeated.   segregation was shown to create inequality, and the supreme court unanimously ruled segregation to be unconstitutional.

the ruling was important in advancing civil rights because it affirmed that the 14th amendment applies to all rights and privileges of citizens, including access to   education.   this was being violated by states whose laws supported the segregation of schools.   section 1 of the 14th amendment reads as follows:
