Rachel has a box in the shape of a prism with a square base. The capacity of the box is 150 cubic inches. The height of the box (y) is times the base length of the box (x). Find the approximate height and the length of the box.
A. x = 4 and y = 6
B. x = 5 and y = 7.5
C. x = 4.2 and y = 6.3
D. x = 4.6 and y = 6.9

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

What do we know about that prism?

It's a rectangular prism with a square base.

Height: y (from question)

base length: x (from question)

base width: x (from question, since it's a square base).

Total volume: 150 cu inches

The question lacks a relationship between x and y the "is __ times", but we can see from the answer choices that they all show a constant relationship:

y = 1.5 x  

The volume of a prism is obtained by  multiplying the lengths of its 3 dimensions: V = length * width * height.  In our case, we then have

150 = x * x *  y

then we replace y by its x-expressed equivalent:

150 = x * x * (1.5x) = 1.5x³

then we isolate x³ by dividing each side by 1.5

x³ = 100, we do the cubic root on each side

x = 4.64

So, answer is D. x = 4.6 and y = 6.9

If you you 4.64 * 4.64 * 6.96 = you get 149.8, which is very close to 150.

Question 8 options:

a)

4


b)

0


c)

-1


d)

Answers

Answer:

d)  1

Step-by-step explanation:

3a = –2b – 7

We have the point (a, -5) so b = -5

Substituting in

3a = -2(-5) -7

3a = 10-7

3a = 3

Divide each side by 3

3a/3 = 3/3

a =1

Final answer:

To find the value of a in the equation 3a = -2b - 7, substitute the coordinates of the given point and solve for a. The value of a is -5.

Explanation:

In this given equation 3a = -2b - 7, o find the value of a, we can substitute the coordinates of the given point into the equation and solve for a. Let's substitute the value of a as -5:

3(-5) = -2b - 7

Simplifying the equation:

-15 = -2b - 7

Adding 7 to both sides:

-8 = -2b

Dividing both sides by -2:

The graph of which of the following will be parallel to the graph of 4x – 3y = –12? A.y= 4/3x -3/2 B.6x-4y=-8 C. y=3/4x+1 D.4x- 2y=-12

Answers

Answer:

A. [tex]y = \frac{4}{3} x - \frac{3}{2}[/tex]

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we have to turn 4x - 3y = -12 into slope-intercept form (y = mx + b). To do this, we first have to isolate 3y.

4x - 3y = -12

    +3y    +12     Add 3y to both sides and add 12 to both sides

4x + 12 = 3y

3y = 4x + 12

Isolate y by dividing 3 from both sides.

y = [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex]x + 4

The graph that is parallel will have the same slope as this equation, which is [tex]\frac{4}{3}[/tex].

Therefore, A. [tex]y = \frac{4}{3} x - \frac{3}{2}[/tex] would be the correct answer.

Answer:

A

Step-by-step explanation:

Solve for y.

4x – 3y = -12

4x + 12 = 3y

y = 4/3 x + 4

The slope of the line is 4/3.  So you need another line with the same slope.  So the answer is A.

A. $0.36
B. $0.30
C. $0.25
D. $0.94

Answers

Answer:

B. $0.30

Step-by-step explanation:

1 bar of candy = $0.20

3 bars of candy = $0.50

To solve, multiply for both:

If you pay for each candy bar individually, they each cost $0.20. Multiply 9 with 0.20:

9 x 0.20 = $1.80

If you pay for the candy bars by 3's, they cost $0.50 each pack. Divide 9 with 3, then multiply by 0.50:

9/3 = 3

3 x 0.50 = $1.50

Subtract the total cost of the individual from the pack:

$1.80 - $1.50 = $0.30

B. $0.30 is your answer.

If the sum of the interior angle measures of a polygon with n sides is 2280 degrees, find n.
Please Help Me!!

Answers

Answer is 18 but I’m just providing the linear equation method so in the future you can solve it!

Final answer:

Using the sum of the interior angles formula for a polygon, S = (n - 2) x 180 degrees, and substituting the provided sum of 2280 degrees, it is calculated that the polygon has 14 sides.

Explanation:

To solve for the number of sides n in a polygon given the sum of the interior angles, we use the formula:

S = (n - 2) × 180°

where S is the sum of the interior angles in degrees. Given that the sum of the interior angles S is 2280 degrees, we can set up the equation:

2280 = (n - 2) × 180

Divide both sides of the equation by 180:

2280 ÷ 180 = n - 2

12 = n - 2

Now, add 2 to both sides of the equation to find n:

n = 12 + 2

n = 14

So, the polygon has 14 sides.

Which of the following equations represents a line that is parallel to y=-4x-1
and passes through the point, (2, 2)?


A. y = -4x- 6
B. y = -x+2
C. y=-4x +10
D. y = -4x+4


Answers

Answer:

Option C : y = -4x+10

Step-by-step explanation:

Given equation of line is:

[tex]y = -4x-1[/tex]

Comparing it with standard form

y=mx+b

m = -4

As the slopes of parallel lines are equal, the slop of other line will also be -4.

Now, to find the value of b

[tex]2 = -4(2) + b\\2 = -8 + b\\2+8=b\\b=10[/tex]

Putting the values of b and m in standard form

[tex]y=mx+b\\y = (-4)x+10\\y= -4x+10[/tex]

Hence,

Option C is the correct answer ..

For this case we have that the equation of a line of the slope-intersection form is given by:

[tex]y = mx + b[/tex]

Where:

m: It's the slope

b: It is the cut point with the y axis.

By definition, if two straight lines are parallel then their slopes are equal.

So, if we have:

[tex]y = -4x-1[/tex]

A parallel line has slope [tex]m = -4[/tex]

y = -4x + b

We substitute the point (2,2) to find "b":

[tex]2 = -4 (2) + b\\2 = -8 + b\\b = 2 + 8\\b = 10[/tex]

Finally we have:

[tex]y = -4x + 10[/tex]

Answers

Answer:

7

Step-by-step explanation:

2x² - 28x + 98 = 0

x² - 14x + 49 = 0

(x - 7)² = 0

x = 7

Final answer:

To solve the equation 2x^2 - 28x + 98 = 0, we can use the quadratic formula. After substituting the values into the formula, we simplify the equation and solve for x. The solution is x = 7.

Explanation:Solution:

To solve the equation 2x2 - 28x + 98 = 0, we can use the quadratic formula:

x = (-b ± √(b^2 - 4ac)) / (2a)

In this case, a = 2, b = -28, and c = 98. Substituting these values into the formula:

x = (-(-28) ± √((-28)^2 - 4(2)(98))) / (2(2))

Simplifying the equation gives:

x = (28 ± √(784-784)) / 4

Since the term inside the square root is zero, we have:

x = (28 ± √0) / 4

The square root of zero is zero, so:

x = (28 ± 0) / 4

Simplifying further:

x = 28 / 4

x = 7

Therefore, the solution to the equation 2x2 - 28x + 98 = 0 is x = 7.

Answers

Answer:

Answers: 46, 23, and 111

Step-by-step explanation:

To answer, we need to know the angles. Therefore, give each angle a name. Angle 1 will be x, 2 will be y, 3 will be z. So, using this system of equations:

x=2y

z=y+88

x+y+z=180

Substituting, z = 1/2(x)+88, now plug z into the third equation:

x+1/2(x)+1/2(x)+88=180

this simplifies to 2x+88=180

subtracting 88 from both sides leaves 2x=92

x=46

plug this in to the first equation: 46 = 2y, so y = 23

plug this into the third one leaves z = 111

Adam put $100 in a savings account. After 10 years, he had $1649 in the
account. What rate of interest did he earn? Use the formula A = Per, where A
is the ending amount, Pis the principal (initial amount), r is the interest rate,
and t is time.

Answers

Adam earned approximately 12.48% interest on his savings account over 10 years.

To find the rate of interest (r) earned by Adam, we can use the formula for compound interest:

A = P * (1 + r[tex])^{t}[/tex]

where:

A = ending amount ($1649 in this case)

P = principal (initial amount) ($100 in this case)

r = interest rate (what we want to find)

t = time (in years) (10 years in this case)

We know the values of A, P, and t, so we can plug them into the formula and solve for r:

1649 = 100 * (1 + r)¹⁰

Divide both sides of the equation by 100:

16.49 = (1 + r)¹⁰

Now, let's isolate (1 + r) by taking the 10th root of both sides:

(1 + r) = √(16.49)

(1 + r) ≈ 1.12479

Now, subtract 1 from both sides to find the value of r:

r ≈ 1.12479 - 1

r ≈ 0.12479

Finally, convert the decimal to a percentage to get the interest rate:

r ≈ 0.12479 * 100

r ≈ 12.48%

So, Adam earned approximately 12.48% interest on his savings account over 10 years.
