Answer:

In the picture attached, the question is shown.

a) Applying Pythagorean theorem to triangle ABC, and solving for AC:

CB² + BA² = AC²

5² + 12² = AC²

√169 = AC

13 cm = AC

b) Applying Pythagorean theorem to triangle ACD, and solving for AD:

CD² + AC² = AD²

5² + 13² = AD²

√194 = AD

13.9 cm = AD

Write an expression that represents the volume of a rectangular-shaped box with a length 3 inches less than its height and a wid
AfilCa [17]

The expression that represents the volume of a rectangular-shaped box is: A. x³ + x² - 12x.

<h3>What is the Volume of a Rectangular Prism?</h3>

A rectangular-shaped box is a rectangular prism. To find the volume of a rectangular-shaped box, we would apply the formula of the volume of a rectangular prism, which is expressed as: V = (length)(width)(height).

We are given the following dimensions of the rectangular-shaped box:

Let the height be represented as x

Height of the rectangular-shaped box = x in.

Length of the rectangular-shaped box = (x - 3) in.

Width of the rectangular-shaped box = (x + 4) in.

Plug in the values into the volume formula:

Volume of the rectangular-shaped box = (x - 3)(x)(x + 4)

Expand (x - 3)(x)(x + 4)

Volume of the rectangular-shaped box = x³ + x² - 12x.

Therefore, the expression that represents the volume of a rectangular-shaped box with the given dimensions is: A. x³ + x² - 12x.

HELP!! WITH THESES MATH QUESTION! WILL MARK BRAINLIEST 70 POINTS!!! PLEASE HELP

1. Let hardcover books = X

Paperback books would be 4x -3 ( 3 less than 4 times)

Now you have:

X + 4x-3 = 447

Simplify:

5x - 3 = 447

Add 3 to each side:

5x = 450

Divide both sides by 5:

x = 450/5

x = 90

He has 90 hardcover books.

2. 300 miles / 25 miles per gallon = 12 gallons of gas.

12 gallons x $$ per gallon = $48 dollars

3. Subtract base pay from total:

1916 - 800 = 1,116 worth of commissions.

Divide commissions by percentage:

1116 / 0.09 = $12,400 total sales.

4.

Find the median of the heights: 65-50 = 15. 15/2 = 7.5

Median = 50+7.5 = 57.5

The equation would be |h-57.5| < 7.5
