Why can't you compare 5 minutes in 240 seconds without making some kind of change

1 answer:

5 0

You have to have the same unit of measure. Here your units are "minutes" and "seconds". In order to compare the two, you must change to 240 seconds into minutes (dividing by 60 = 4 mins) OR change the 5 minutes into seconds (multiply by 60 to give you 300 seconds)

The thing is that every 4 years, the tree grows 6 inches, so that could be expressed as a ratio, 4/6. That also means that every two years, the tree grows 3 inches since it could be simplified to 2/3.

A cone-shaped paper cup can hold 35 cubic inches of food. If the radius of the cone is 2.4 inches, what is the height of the con

SVETLANKA909090 [29]

$\bf \textit{volume of a cone}\\\\
V=\cfrac{\pi r^2 h}{3}~~
\begin{cases}
r=radius\\
h=height\\
-----\\
r=2.4\\
V=35
\end{cases}\implies 35=\cfrac{\pi (2.4)^2 h}{3}\implies 105=5.76\pi h
\\\\\\
\cfrac{105}{5.76\pi }=h\implies 5.805467091295 \approx h\implies 5.81 \approx h$
