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.

In ΔUVW, w = 9 cm, v = 2.2 cm and ∠V=136°. Find all possible values of ∠W, to the nearest 10th of a degree.
Alja [10]

Complete Question

In ΔUVW, w = 9 cm, v = 22 cm and ∠V=136°. Find all possible values of ∠W, to the nearest 10th of a degree.

Answer:

16.5°

Step-by-step explanation:

In ΔUVW, w = 9 cm, v = 22 cm and ∠V=136°. Find all possible values of ∠W, to the nearest 10th of a degree.

We solve using Sine rule formula

a/sin A = b/sin B

We are solving for angle W

∠V=136°

Hence:

22 /sin 136 = 9 /sin W

Cross Multiply

22 × sin W = sin 136 × 9

sin W = sin 136 × 9/22

W = arc sin [sin 136 × 9/2.2]

W = 16.50975°

W = 16.5°

If (1)=3 and f(n)=f(n-1)-1 then find the value of f(6)
katrin [286]

Answer:

f(1) = 3

f(n) = f(n-1) - 1

Otherwise,

f(n) = f(1) - (n-1)

=> f(6) = 3 - 5 = -2

Hope this helps!
