An artist is creating a sculpture where a globe with a diameter of 48 inches sits in a cone like a scoop of ice cream. She wants

the cone of her sculpture to be geometrically similar to an actual ice cream cone that has a diameter of 2 1/2 inches and height of 6 inches. What should be the height of the cone in the artists sculpture?

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.

Match each exponential function to the description of its percent rate of change. 22% growth 12% decay 2% decay 20% growth 20% d
makvit [3.9K]

The exponential function is defined as y = a(1+r)^x, where "a" represents the original account and "r" the rate of growth or decay.

Then we have the following:

1) 22% grow

y = a( 1 + 22%/100 )^x = a(1.22)^x

So the solution is: 124(1.22)^x

2) 12% decay

y = a( 1 - 12%/100 )^x = a(0.88)^x

So the solution is: y = f(x) = 44(0.88)^x

3) 20% decay

y = a( 1 - 20%/100 )^x = a(0.8)^x

So the solution is: f(x) = 22(0.8)

4) 12% Groth

y = a( 1 + 12%/100 )^x = a(1.12)^x

So the solution is: f(x) = 42(1.12)^x
