Scientists have found that the life span of a mammal living in captivity is related to the mammals mass. The life span in years

L can be approximated by the formula L=12m^1/5, where m is the mammal's mass in kilograms. How much longer is the life span of a lion compared with that of a wolf?
wolf=32 kg
lion=243 kg

To know the life span of the wolf and the lion, we simply substitute their mass to the formula for L.

Mass of wolf:
L=12 m^{ \frac{1}{5} }= 12 (32)^{ \frac{1}{5} }=24

Mass of lion:
L=12 m^{ \frac{1}{5} }= 12 (243)^{ \frac{1}{5} }=36

Therefore, the wolf has a life span of 24 and the lion has a life span of 36. With this information, we can determine how much longer the life span of the lion is:
36-24=12

ANSWER: The life span of the lion is 12 longer than the life span of the wolf.

Amy has a garden covering 900 square feet.
blagie [28]
A.900/10=90 therefore, 10% of the garden will be covered moss roses so that transfers to 90 square feet

B.900 square feet is equal to 25% of the garden so 900x4=3600 therefore, the area of the yard in square feet could either be 30x120, 60x60, or 180x20

a cone with a radius of 3” has a total area of 24pie square inches. Find the volume of the cone. 12pie, 24 pie or 15 pie
Ratling [72]

Answer:

12\pi (inches)^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

radius of cone = 3 inch

Total area of cone = 24\pi (inch)^{2}

Find the volume of the cone?

We know the area of cone = \pi r(r+s) -------(1)

Where r = radius

Ans s = side of the cone

Put the area value in equation 1

24\pi=\pi r(r+s) -------(1)

\frac{24\pi }{\pi r} =r+s

\frac{24}{ r}-r =s

Put r value in above equation.

s =\frac{24}{ 3}-3

s=8-3

s=5

The side s = 5 inches

We know the side of the cone formula

s^{2}=r^{2}+ h^{2}

h^{2}=s^{2}- r^{2}

Put r and s value in above equation.

h^{2}=5^{2}- 3^{2}

r^{2} = 25-9

r^{2} = 16

r = 4

The volume of cone is

V = \frac{1}{3} \pi r^{2} h

Put r and h value in above equation.

V = \frac{1}{3} \pi (3)^{2}\times 4

V = 12\pi (inches)^{2}

The Volume of the cone is 12\pi (inches)^{2}

Through: (3, 4), slope = -2​
sineoko [7]

Answer:

y = -2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope-Intercept Form: y = mx + b

Points: (3, 4)

Slope: -2

y = -2x + b

4 = -2 ( 3 ) + b

4 = -6 + b

b = -2

y = -2x - 2
