The height of Ernies shadow is 4 feet when his height is 6 feet.

<h3>equation</h3>

An equation is an expression used to show the relationship between two or more variables and numbers.

Let x represent the length of his shadow. Given that the ratio of ernie's height to his shadow's height is 1.5 to 1. Hence:

  • (1.5/2.5) * y = 6
  • y = 10 feet

(1/2.5) * 10 = x

x = 4 feet

The height of Ernies shadow is 4 feet when his height is 6 feet.

Use the zero product property to find the solitions to the equation(x+2)(x+3)=12.
kykrilka [37]

Answer:

(x + 2) (x + 3) = x² + 3x + 2x + 6 = 12  (multiply the binomials)

(x + 2) (x + 3) = x² + 5x + 6 = 12

(x + 2) (x + 3) = x² + 5x + 6-12 = 0  (add the like term and bring the positive 12 to the other side which makes it negative)

x² + 5x + 6 = 0

Using the snowflake method -  (finding the factors of 6 that adds/subtracts to give you 5).  

This method will give you the factors (x + 6)(x - 1)

ZERO PROPERTY RULE:

(x + 6) = 0

x = -6

(x - 1) = 0

x = 1

The two solutions to the equation are -6 and 1.

The answer would be the second option B) because we can cross out A) and D) since those are multiplication, and it's not C) because that's commutative property, not associative.

Blood is a buffer solution. When carbon dioxide is absorbed into the bloodstream, it produces carbonic acid and lowers the pH. T
Irina18 [472]

Answer:

x ≅ 20.10 torr

Step-by-step explanation:

Given that the equation which models blood pH in the question is;

pH(x)=6.1+log(800/x)

where;

pH = 7.7

x = partial pressure of carbon dioxide in arterial blood, measured in torr.

we are asked to find (x)

In order to do that, we use the given equation:

pH(x)=6.1+log(800/x)

since pH = 7.7

7.7 = 6.1 + log (800/x)

7.7 - 6.1 =  log (800/x)

1.6 =  log (800/x)

10^{1.6}= \frac{800}{x}

x= \frac{800}{10^{1.6}}

x = 20.09509145

x ≅ 20.10 torr

Volume of a ice cream cone is about 65.94cm^3 if the raduius of the cone is 3cm what is the height of cone
kodGreya [7K]
The volume of a cone is
\pi {r}^{2} (h \div 3)
since V=65.94 and r=3, you just plug it in and solve for h which results to 6.996cm
