Answer:

115.2 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

What we must do is calculate the ratio between the real version and the version to be imitated, in this case the ice cream cone.

To calculate the ratio, we will do it through the diameter:

48 / 2.5 = 19.2

So the ratio is 19.2: 1

Which means that one inch of the ice cream cone represents 19.2 inches in the real version.

Therefore, in the case of height it would be:

6 * 19.2 = 115.2

Therefore, the height should be 115.2 inches.

What letter stays the same when reflected over the x-axis
valina [46]

When you reflect a point across the x-axis, the x-coordinate remains the same, but the y-coordinate is transformed into its opposite (its sign is changed). If you forget the rules for reflections when graphing, simply fold your paper along the x-axis (the line of reflection) to see where the new figure will be located.p explanation:
