Building and solving an equation to model the situation, it is found that it takes 4 min for the prairie dog to reach 13 feet underground.
- Initially, the dog is 5 feet underground.
- Each minute, the dog goes 2 more feet underground.
Hence, the underground height of the dog after t seconds is given by:

The time it takes for the dog to reach 13 feet underground is <u>t for which h(t) = 13</u>, hence:





It takes 4 min for the prairie dog to reach 13 feet underground.
A similar problem is given at brainly.com/question/25290003
A basket contains 12 apples and some other fruit
40% of the total fruit are apples...so 40% of the total fruit is 12..
0.40x = 12....with x being the total fruit in the basket <== ur equation
x = 12 / 0.40
x = 30....and u have 30 pieces of fruit in the basket
Answer:
height = 78 yd
Step-by-step explanation:
<u>Formula</u>
Volume of a rectangular prism = width × length × height
Given:
- volume = 4,212 yd³
- width = 2 yd
- length = 27 yd
Substituting given values into the formula and solving for height:
⇒ 4212 = 2 × 27 × height
⇒ 4212 = 54 × height
⇒ height = 4212 ÷ 54
⇒ height = 78 yd
No this number is not written in scientific notation
In scientific notation, it'll look like
4.8 * 10 ^14
In scientific notation it's 10 ^ n
NOT 100^n
Hope this helps
