You could use the shadow made by the tower. For this you would need the length of the shadow and the hypotenuse of the triangle created. As for a picture of it you can just make a line and label it as a tower, then a line underneath as the shadow length then just connect the two lines forming a triangle that will be the hypotenuse.

We have been given that Susan has a 12-inch board for constructing a wooden chair.The directions say to use a board that is 29 centimeters long. We are asked to determine if Susan's board is long enough to cut or not.

We know that 1 inch is equal to 2.54 cm.

Let us convert 12 inches into cm by multiplying 12 by 2.54.

$12\text{ inches}=12\times 2.54\text{ cm}$

$12\text{ inches}=30.48\text{ cm}$

Since 12 inches is equal to 30.48 centimeters and 30.48 is greater than 29, therefore, Susan's board in long enough to cut.

An ice cream cone has a diameter of 3 inches.The distance from the top of the cone to the point at the bottom (height) is 5 inch

solong [7]

Answer:

11.781 cubic inches (round accordingly)

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a cone is:

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

where r is the radius and h is the height.

For our ice cream cone:

d = 3 inches

r = 1.5 inches (the radius is half of the diameter)

h= 5 inches

So all we have to do is plug in our values and solve for the volume:

$\frac{1}{3}\pi (1.5)^{2}(5) = 11.781$

So our final answer is around 11.8 cubic inches.

I just need help set up

Vilka [71]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Set up equations (L= Lisa; M = Maria; A = April; J = Jim)

L = 12M

A = 2J

Substitute x for Maria and 6x for Jim

L = 12x

A = 2(6x) = 12x

So, you get:

Maria = x

Jim = 6x

Lisa = 12x

April = 12x
