Her house is -----------------------24 feet tall

Her model is----------------------- 8 inches tall

The inch is a unit of length used primarily in the imperial and U.S. customary measurement systems, representing 1/12 of a foot

 in =ft * 12.000

24 feet=12*24=288 inches

Her house is -----------------------288 inches tall

Her model is----------------------- 8 inches tall

 

288/8=36 scale of reduction

Her brother is 5 feet tall

<span>The figurine in the model that represents her brother  (5/36)</span>=0.138889 feet

<span>0.138889*12=1.67 inches</span>

A prairie dog left its burrow 5 feet underground and started digging deeper into the ground. It digs straight down at a constant
SpyIntel [72]

Building and solving an equation to model the situation, it is found that it takes 4 min for the prairie dog to reach 13 feet underground.

  • Initially, the dog is 5 feet underground.
  • Each minute, the dog goes 2 more feet underground.

Hence, the underground height of the dog after t seconds is given by:

h(t) = 5 + 2t

The time it takes for the dog to reach 13 feet underground is <u>t for which h(t) = 13</u>, hence:

h(t) = 5 + 2t

13 = 5 + 2t

2t = 8

t = \frac{8}{2}

t = 4

It takes 4 min for the prairie dog to reach 13 feet underground.
