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.

Sammy and David were selling water bottles to raise money for new football uniforms famous or 5 water bottles for every 3 water
ANTONII [103]
In the given question, we come to know that Sammy sold 5 bottles for every 3 water bottles sold by David. In this case we get the ratio as 5:3
Now this ratio indicates that the total number of bottles can be divided into 8 parts for finding out a single part. the total number of water bottles that are sold by Sammy and David together are 160.
Now on dividing this total number of bottles by 8 we get the 20 as one part.
The,
Number of Bottles sold by Sammy = 5 * 20
                                                         = 100
Number of bottles sold by David = 3 * 20
                                                   = 60
So Sammy sold 100 water bottles and David sold 60 water bottles from the total of 160 water bottles.

Lisa bought stock three years ago and sold it today for a profit of $1,200. this is a _____.
goldenfox [79]
Well if you are looking for the profit margin we need how much is was when she bought it, because it doesn't say, you can't say It's a increase or a decrease, so you could say this is a investment.
But considering you put this under mathematics I assume there is more to this question you forgot to post.

How well does the idea of the melting pot reflect U.S. immigration around 1900?
Minchanka [31]

Answer:

The melting pot theory of ethnic relations, which sees American identity as centered upon the acculturation or assimilation and the intermarriage of white immigrant groups, has been analyzed by the emerging academic field of whiteness studies. This discipline examines the "social construction of whiteness" and highlights the changing ways in which whiteness has been normative to American national identity from the 17th to the 20th century.
