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.

Zina [86]

Answer and Explanation:

Gina wanted to swim at the pool. She is allowed to spend at most $30. The cost to swim in the pool is 3 dollars per hour plus a flat fee of $3. How many hours can Gina swim without going over her spending limit?

This problem can be represented by  3x+3\leq 30.

'x' would be the number of hours. "At most" means less than or equal to. So, the value of x would have to be less than or equal to 30.

3x+3\leq 30-3\\\\3x\leq 27\\\\3x/3\leq 27/3\\\\\boxed{x\leq9}

So, Gina would have a maximum of 9 hours to swim in the pool.

Hope this helps.

Nezavi [6.7K]

Answer:

Position function is s(t)=-12t^2

Step-by-step explanation:

Given a(t)=-24, since velocity is the antiderivative of acceleration, then v(t)=-24t.

Also, since position is the antiderivative of velocity, then s(t)=-12t^2.
