If a menorah is 20 cubits high, and 1 cubit=18 inches, then simply multiply 20 by 18. 18*20=360 inches. Since there are 12 inches in 1 foot, 360/12=30. So, according to the code of Jewish law, a menorah can be 30 feet high.

Answer:

30 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

Interesting question.

  • 1 cubit = 18 inches
  • 20 cubits = x
  • 1/20 = 18/x       Cross multiply
  • x = 20 * 18
  • x = 360 inches.

The maximum height is 360 inches.

  • 1 foot = 12 inches
  • x feet = 360 inches   Cross multiply
  • 12x = 360 * 1
  • 12x/12 = 360/12
  • x = 30

The maximum height reached was 30 feet.

I am a decimal
dybincka [34]
0.6<2x<0.65 (because it's closer to 6)
0.3<x<0.325

Since the thousandths digit of 2x is 2, then the thousandths digit of x is 1 or 6, so the decimal could be 0.301, 0.302, 0.311, 0.312, 0.321

Hope this helps :)

Yesterday 270 concert tickets were sold. today 216 were sold. what is the percent of change
UNO [17]
Given:
yesterday = 270
today = 216

yesterday's number of tickets sold is the basis of the percent of change. So, 270 is the 100%.

270 - 216 = 54  * value of the change in ticket sales

54/270 = 0.20 x 100% = 20%  * percent of change

There was a 20% decrease in ticket sales.
