Mathematics

Answer:

<em>Choice B. 16 feet.</em>

<em>The height of the tree is 16 ft</em>

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Similar Triangles</u>

Similar triangles have their corresponding side lengths proportional by a fixed scale factor.

We are given the drawings of a tree and a wall and it's assumed both triangles are similar. We need to find the scale factor and find the height of the tree.

Comparing the corresponding distances from the viewer to the base of the tree and the base of the wall, we can calculate the scale factor as 24/6=4.

Applying the same factor to the height of the model, we get the height of the tree is 4*4 = 16 ft.

Choice B. 16 feet

The height of the tree is 16 ft

Given a soda can with a volume of 21 and a diameter of 6, what is the volume of a cone that fits perfectly inside the soda can?
lutik1710 [3]
If the soda can is a cylinder, which is most likely, than that means we need to find the height of the cone. The formula for volume of a cylinder is V= пr^2h (look at the pic for clearer formula) and we know the diameter of the soda can is 6, we know the radius is 3 because diameter is a line reaching from one point of the circle to the other. Radius is a line reaching from the center of the circle to the outside as shown in the image. We divide pi (you can put in the calculator 3.14) from 21, then we get 6.688 (if we round up) and then you must look at the formula now

it looks like
6.688=r^2h

that means we must find 3^2
that basically means 3x3 which is 9

then you have to divide that from 6.688

then you get 0.743

that is your height.

now we must find the volume of the cone. The formula for that is

V=пr^2(h/3)

now lets plug in our info

V=(3.14)(9)(0.743/3)

you get 6.999

5000 ones = how many hundreds?
kenny6666 [7]
<span>Five Thousand ones equals Fifty hundred ones; this can be understood by moving the numerical comma on place 5,000 becomes 50,00; to change the notation you can also divide 5,000 by 100 which equals 50. Therefore it equals 50 hundred ones. By simple division you can arrive at the answer for this.</span>
