About 18 inches / 1 foot and 6 inches

If hair grows about 6 inches every year, and we want to find out how much will grow in 3 years, we multiply.

6 x 3 = 18 inches

Then we can simplify it because there are 12 inches in a foot

18/12 = 1 6/12

A man is standing at a radar base and observes an unidentified plane at an altitude 6000m flying towards the radar base at an an
liubo4ka [24]

Answer:

The speed in of the plane is 115.47 m/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Height at which the plane is flying = 6000 m

Angle of elevation at the radar base = 30 Degrees

Angle of elevation at the radar base after one minute  = 60 Degrees

To Find:

The Speed of the plane in meter per second = ?

Solution:

Let us use the tangent of the angle to find the distance (d) to a point directly below plane:

<u>when the angle is 30 degrees</u>

tan(30) = \frac{6000}{d1}

d1   = \frac{6000}{tan(30)}

d1 = \frac{6000}{0.577}

d1 = 10392.3 meters

<u>when the angle is 60 degrees</u>

tan(60) = \frac{6000}{d2}

d2  = \frac{6000}{tan(60)}

d2  = \frac{6000}{1.732}\\

d2 = 3464.1 meters

<u>distance travelled by aircraft in 1 min is  </u>

=>d1 - d2

=>0392.3 - 3464.1

= 6928.2 m/min

<u>Now converting to m/sec</u>

=>\frac{6928.2}{60}

=>115.47 m/sec

Sarah paid $3.84 for 32 ounces of carrots. Sue paid $5.20 for 40 ounces of carrots. Who paid less per ounce
Tatiana [17]

Answer:

Sarah

Step-by-step explanation:

For Sarah

Sarah paid $3.84 for 32 ounces of carrots.

32 ounces = $3.84

1 ounce = x

Cross Multiply

x = $3.84/32

x = $0.12

For Sue

Sue paid $5.20 for 40 ounces of carrots.

40 ounces = $5.20

1 ounce = x

Cross Multiply

x = $5.20/40

x = $0.13

Who paid less per ounce?

Sarah paid less per ounce

Answer:

y = 3x + 3

Step-by-step explanation:

when you check, only that equation delivers the correct x and y pairs.

x = 0, => y = 3×0 + 3 = 3

x = 1, y = 3×1 + 3 = 3+3 = 6

x = 2, y = 3×2 + 3 = 6 + 3 = 9

x = 3, y = 3×3 + 3 = 9 + 3 = 12

it all fits.
