neurons are cells in the nervous system that process and transmit info. An average neuron is about 5 x 10^-6 meter in diameter. A standard table tennis ball is 0.04 meter in diameter. About how many times as great is the diameter of a ball

Ratio = Diameter of ball/Diameter of neuron

Ratio = 0.04 m/5×10⁻⁶ m

Ratio = 8,000

Therefore, the tennis ball is 8,000 times larger than the neuron,

Step-by-step explanation:

it's equivalent, so we can say that its equal.

let's call the denominator x and the numerador is 18 less then denominator, x - 18.

multiply

2.x = 5.(x - 18)

2x = 5x - 90

90 = 5x - 2x

90 = 3x

x = 90/3

x = 30

so:

h= 12 inches
