Answer:

The old tower has 150 steps

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the number of steps in the old tower be m

Mathematically, time = distance/speed

In this case, the distance is the number of steps while the speed is the rate of climbing or descending

For climbing, time spent = m/3

For descending time spent = m/2

Since it took her 25 longer when descending;

This means that;

m/2 - m/3 = 25

(3m-2m)/6 = 25

m/6 = 25

m = 6 * 25

m = 150 steps

A cone is 3 inches high and has a base with a surface area of 7 square inches. What is the volume of the cone?
lawyer [7]

Answer: the answer should be 7

Step-by-step explanation:  V=πr2h

3=π·1.52·3

3≈7.06858

you can find the radius for the area of the base 7 by dividing by \pi like such 7/3.1459 the squared because remember its in r2 form which give you 1.5 then plug this in for one of two ways to solve A·\pi 1/3 or V=πr2h

In science class, Priscilla heats water and measures the temperature of the water every 2 minutes\or data are shown in the table
Dima020 [189]

Answer:

  37.5 °C

Step-by-step explanation:

The temperature appears to be increasing linearly at the rate of 5 °C in 2 minutes, or 2.5 °C per minute.

1 minute after 4 minutes, when the temperature is 35 °C, we expect it to be 2.5 °C higher, or 37.5 °C.

Answer: maximum height of the football = 176 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

We want to determine the maximum height of the football from the ground. From the function given,

h(t) = -16t^2+96t +32, it is a quadratic function. Plotting graph if h will result to a parabolic shape. The maximum height of the football = the vertex of the parabola. This vertex is located at time, t

t = -b/2a

b = 96 and a= -16

t = -b/2a = -96/2×-16= 3

Substituting t = 3 into the function if h

h(t) = -16×3^2+96×3 +32

=-16×9 + 96×3 +32

= -144+ 288+32

=176 feet
