Answer:

4 times as tall.

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of the box with the smaller base = 2*2* h1 = 4h1 where h1 is its height.

Similarly the volume of the larger base box =  4*4 * h2 = 16h2 with height h2.

So the ratio of their volumes is  16h2 / 4h1 = 4h2 / h1.

Now the volumes are equal so 4h2 = h1.

Therefore   h2 = h1/4  so h1 = 4h2.

The box with the smaller base is 4 times as tall as the other box.

Murrr4er [49]
The general rule for 90° counterclockwise rotation about the origin is given by:
(x,y)→(-y,x)
thus given that S has coordinates of (5,4), then rotation through 90° will map the the figure on S'(-4,5). Hence the answer is:
C](-4,5)

A student collected monetary pledges for a fundraiser. One donor pledged to contribute $5 for each mile walked by the student du
Snezhnost [94]

Answer:

A. The situation is discrete B. i. { x : 0 ≤ x ≤ 6; x ∈ Z} ii. { C = 5x : 0 ≤ C ≤ 30; C ∈ Z}

Step-by-step explanation:

A. The situation is discrete since we have integral values for the amount paid per mile walked. The amount per mile is $5 and is only paid if a complete mile is walked. So, it is a discrete situation.

B. i. Since 0 miles represents 0 distance and the student walks a maximum of 6 miles, let x represent the distance walked. So the domain is 0 ≤ x ≤ 6 where x ∈ Z where Z represent integers.

{ x : 0 ≤ x ≤ 6; x ∈ Z}

ii. Since at 0 miles the amount earned is 0 miles × $5 per mile = $ 0 and at the maximum distance of 6 miles, the amount earned is 6 miles × $5 per mile = $ 30, let C represent the amount donated in dollars. So the range is 0 ≤ C ≤ $ 30 where C = 5x.

{ C = 5x : 0 ≤ C ≤ 30; C ∈ Z}

If a fair coin is tossed three​ times, find the probability of getting heads on the first toss and tails on the second and third
poizon [28]

Answer:

The answer is: \frac{1}{8}

Step-by-step explanation:

The sample space when tossing a coin three times is [HHH, HHT, HTH, HTT, THH, THT, TTH, TTT]  and the total number of occurrence is 8.

Getting Head on first toss, tail on second and third is: HTT and it occurs just once in our sample space.

Therefore, the probability of getting Head on first toss, tails on second and third tosses is: \frac{1}{8}

Note probability = \frac{number of possible occurrence}{number of total occurrence}
