Answer:

48 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

At a particular time, objects and their shadows are proportionate.

Therefore, in figure,

AB/FD = BC/DE --- (1)

where AB is the height of the lighthouse, BC, its shadow and FD is the height of Zara and DE is her shadow.

From the given information,

BC = 36 feet

FD = 4 feet and DE = 3 feet

(1) becomes

AB/4 = 36/3

AB = 12

AB = 48

Hence, the height of the lighthouse is 48 feet.

If you are given the graph of h(x)=log6x. how could you graph m(x)=log6(x+3)
Dovator [93]

We have been given the function h(x)=\log_6x

Now, we can see that in the transformed function  h(x)=\log_6(x+3), we have added 3 in the x.

Whenever we add/subtract some constant in the x, then the function gets translated to either left or right.

We know that if f(x) is a parent function and if we add a constant c then the function gets shift to c unit left.

Therefore, the given graph will get shifted 3 units left.

D is the correct option.

Translate each point of the graph of h(x) 3 units left.

Water has a density of 1.00g/cm^3 per cubic centimeter. What is the mass of half a liter of water?
anygoal [31]

Answer:

The mass of half a liter of water is 500g, that is, 0.5kg.

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is mass divided by the volume, that is:

d = \frac{m}{v}

Here, we have to be careful. Since the density is in grams per cm³, m has to be in grams and v in cm³.

We have that:

d = 1

What is the mass of half a liter of water?

One liter is 1000 cm³.

So half a liter is 1000/2 = 500 cm³, which means that v = 500

Then

d = \frac{m}{v}

1 = \frac{m}{500}

m = 500

The mass of half a liter of water is 500g, that is, 0.5kg.
