<h3>Miguel's Tower is the same height as Jacqui's Tower</h3>

<h3>Further explanation</h3>

To solve the above questions, we need to recall some of the formulas as follows:

Volume of Prism = Base Area × Height

Area of Square = (Side Length)²

Let us now tackle the problem !

<u>Given:</u>

Miquel's Tower Square Base Length = L₁ = 4 in.

Jacqui's Tower Square Base Length = L₂ = 6 in.

Volume of Miquel's Tower = V₁ = 128 in.²

Volume of Jacqui's Tower = V₂ = 288 in.²

<u>Unknown:</u>

Heigth of Miquel's Tower : Height of Jacqui's Tower = H₁ : H₂ = ?

<u>Solution:</u>

This problem is about Volume of Prism.

\texttt{Volume of Miguel's Tower} = (\texttt{Base Area}) \times (\texttt{Height of Miguel's Tower})

128 = (4)^2 \times (\texttt{Height of Miguel's Tower})

\texttt{Height of Miguel's Tower} = 128 \div 4^2

\texttt{Height of Miguel's Tower} = \boxed {8 ~ \texttt{inches}}

\texttt{Volume of Jacqui's Tower} = (\texttt{Base Area}) \times (\texttt{Height of Jacqui's Tower})

288 = (6)^2 \times (\texttt{Height of Jacqui's Tower})

\texttt{Height of Jacqui's Tower} = 288 \div 6^2

\texttt{Height of Jacqui's Tower} = \boxed {8 ~ \texttt{inches}}

<h2>Conclusion:</h2>

Height of Miguel's Tower is the same as Height of Jacqui's Tower

Jacqui's tower is taller than miguel's. How did I manage to pull that out? I divide the volume by the product of the length and wide of the base tower and that should give me the height of the tower. <span />

Find the value of the variable 7x + 19 11x -89 60°​
I am Lyosha [343]
<h2>7x + 19 = 208</h2><h2>11x - 89 = 208</h2><h2>--------------------------------------</h2>

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

let third angle be x

60° + 60° + x = 180° (Δ sum property)

x = 60°

so, this is a equilateral triangle (all Δ equal)

<h2>-----------------------------------------</h2>

in equilateral triangle --> all sides are equal

so, therefore =>>

7x + 19 = 11x - 89

19 + 89 = 11x - 7x

108 = 4x

108 ÷ 4 = x

27 = x

<h3>x = 27</h3><h2>-----------------------------------------</h2>

so variable

1.) 7x + 19

= 7(27) + 19

= 189 + 19

= 208

2.) 11x - 89

= 11(27) - 89

= 297 - 89

= 208

Solve the proportion below.
melamori03 [73]
Cross multiply

19(x) = 30(9.5)

Simplify

19x = 285

Divide 19 from both sides

19x/19 = 285/19

x = 285/19

x = 15

B. 15 is your answer

Write an expression for 40% of 25
Montano1993 [528]

For this case we must find an expression to find 40% of 25. So, we make a rule of three:

25 -----------> 100%

x -------------> 40%

Where "x" represents the amount that determines 40% of 25.

x = \frac {40 * 25} {100}\\x = 10

40% of 25 is 10. And an expression to find it is:

x = \frac {40 * 25} {100}

Answer:

x = \frac {40 * 25} {100}

Tasha claims that her skateboard weighs about 3 pounds. is Tasha's claim reasonable? Explain
gladu [14]
Yes, It would be reasonable since thats about the weight of a skateboard.
However, the average skateboard is closer to 6 pounds. So, the skateboard in the question is very possible- but it would be really low quality.

However- given that you are in middle school- I would say yes, it is reasonable.
