Ok ratio and proportion
realheight:shadow=15:20

slide shadow=16
therefor find realheightslide

15:20=realheightslide:16
simplify
3:4=realheight:16
fractionfy
3/4=realheight/16
multiply both sides by 16
48/4=realheight
12=realheight


aswer is 12 feet

John was given a math equation. He completed it in 5 seconds. Is his answer correct? If it is, show how he got the answer. Show
Maru [420]

Yes; his answer is correct.

John can do this by multiple ways, but most likely he just remembered this one. Here are some ways.

1. He used his fingers; he put 1 finger, then another finger, and got 2 fingers up. The answer is 2.

2. He remembered it; usually Kindergarteners learn this and this is very easy to remember.

3. He used the things around him; I have 1 crayon then add another, how many do I have? 2.

PLEASE HELP!!!!!! 100 POINTS!!!!!!!!

Answer:

Answers are below

Step-by-step explanation:

Hour 0                 1 bacterium

Hour 1                  3 bacterium

Hour 2                 9 bacterium

Hour 3               27 bacterium

Hour 4                81 bacterium

Hour 5            243 bacterium

Hour 6            729 bacterium

After 24 hours, the number of the bacterium will reach 282,429,536,481.

B)  This table represents exponential growth because of the number of bacterium always being multiplied by 3.

C)  The reason that any number to the zero power is one is that any number to the zero power is just the product of no numbers at all, which is the multiplicative identity, 1.

D)  Y = 1 + 3 to the power of x

E)  The rule would change by having all of the numbers multiplied by 100 since there is 100 bacterium at Hour 0.

Why am this point be labeled with two names; 1 1/2 and 3/2
kakasveta [241]
3/2 is an improper fraction, where the denominator (bottom number) is smaller than the top (numerator)
1  1/2 is this same fraction but now it is not improper.
