Answer:

18 feet long.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the bottom section be x feet long, then:

x/6 + x/2 + x = 180

Multiply through by 6:

x + 3x + 6x = 1080

10x = 1080

x = 108 feet,

So the top section = 108/6

= 18 feet long.

X + 2x -20 = 85

Combine like terms:

3x -20 = 85

Add 20 to both sides:

3x = 105

Divide both sides by 3

X = 35

The diameter of a human red blood cell is 0.000009 m. The diameter of a cold virus is 0.00000003 m Approximately how many times
krek1111 [17]

Answer:

D. 3*10^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given the diameter of human red blood cell =  0.000009 m

diameter of a cold virus = 0.00000003 m

To know how many times as large is the diameter of a red blood cell as the diameter of a cold virus, we will take the ratio of the diameter of human red blood cell to that of a cold virus as shown;

diameter of human red blood cell/diameter of a cold virus = 0.000009 m/0.00000003 m

= 9*10^-6/3*10^-8

= 9/3 * 10^-6-(-8)

= 3 * 10^(-6+8)

= 3*10^2

Hence the diameter of a red blood cell is 3*10^2 larger than that of the cold virus

How do i find the rise over run
FromTheMoon [43]

Answer:

rise over run is 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, we want to calculate the ratio of the rise to the run

Mathematically, this is simply referring to the slope

To get the slope, we need to select any two points and then apply the slope formula

The two points selected are;

(8,-6) and (-4,-9)

The slope formula is;

m = (y2-y1)/(x2-x1) = (-9 -(-6))/(-4-8) = -3/-12 = 1/4
