The stalactites become 0.004 + 0.006 = 0.01 inches closer each year, and begin 10 feet apart, or 120 inches apart.
let y be the distance between them, and x be the number of years that go by:
y = -0.01x + 120
We want to find where y = 0, where they meet:
0 = -0.01x + 120 Add 0.01x to both sides
0.01x = 120 Multiply both sides by 100
x = 12,000
The stalagmite and stalactite will meet in 12,000 years

➷ Area = length x width
Convert all the values into just inches:
7'3'' = 87 inches
4'2'' = 50 inches
Substitute these values in:
area = 87 x 50
Solve:
area = 4350 in^2

Answer:
C. 12
Step-by-step explanation:
Corresponding sides are proportional. Sides with the same mark are the same length.
WX/XY = LM/MN = LM/KJ
WX/10 = 18/15
WX = 180/15 . . . . multiply by 10
WX = 12
Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
1 : 3 : : 4: x
Multiply 1 and x and multiply 3 and 4
x = 12
Answer:
59 patients
Step-by-step explanation:
Total patients Sam saw in a week = 236
Percentage of patients near-sighted = 25%
How many of the patients Sam saw were near-sighted?
Number of patients near-sighted = 25% of 236
= 25/100 × 236
= 0.25 × 236
= 59
Number of patients near-sighted = 59 patients
The number of patients Sam saw in a week that were near-sighted is 59 patients
