An animal's weight is proportional to its volume. The strength in its legs to support its weight is proportional to their cross-sectional area. Imagine magnifying a mouse to the size of an elephant. If its length is multiplied by 65, and its density and proportions stay the same, what are the multipliers for its weight and the cross-sectional areas for its legs? Would a mouse this size be able to support itself? Complete the explanation. The ratio of leg cross-section to weight has been reduced by a factor of . The mouse (would not/ would) be able to support itself.

Desmond wants to sell his car that he paid $8,000 for 2 years ago. the car depreciated, or decreased in value, at a constant rate each month over a 2-year period. if x represents the monthly depreciation amount, which expression shows how much desmond can sell his car for today? 8,000 + 24x 8,000 - 24x 8,000 + 2x 8,000 - 2xdesmond wants to sell his car that he paid $8,000 for 2 years ago. the car depreciated, or decreased in value, at a constant rate each month over a 2-year period. if x represents the monthly depreciation amount, which expression shows how much desmond can sell his car for today? 8,000 + 24x 8,000 - 24x 8,000 + 2x 8,000 - 2x
