Lacey picks blueberries and raspberries from her garden. She has 1/5 as many pounds of blueberries as raspberries. If she picks 1_5^4 pounds more blueberries, she will have equal weights of berries. Let x represent the weight of raspberries. What equations could be used to find the weight of blueberries Lacey has?

Drag and drop the answers into the boxes to complete this informal argument explaining how to derive the formula for the volume of a cone. since the volume of a cone is part of the volume of a cylinder with the same base and height, find the volume of a cylinder first. the base of a cylinder is a circle. the area of the base of a cylinder is , where r represents the radius. the volume of a cylinder can be described as slices of the base stacked upon each other. so, the volume of the cylinder can be found by multiplying the area of the circle by the height h of the cylinder. the volume of a cone is of the volume of a cylinder. therefore, the formula for the volume of a cone is 1/3 1/2 1/3πr^2h 1/2πr^2h πr^2h πr^2

The height of a flare fired from the deck of a ship in distress can be modeled by h(t)= -2(8t^2-52t-28), where h is the height of the flare above water and t is the time in seconds. a. find the time it takes the flare to hit the water.
