Step-by-step explanation:

the volume of a figure bases always on a calculation that multiplies 3 dimensions.

while a surface area bases always on a calculation that multiplies 2 dimensions.

since the figures are similar, that means that all dimensions or side lengths of one figure correlate to the corresponding dimensions or side lengths of the other figure via the same scale factor f.

and that means that

large side length = small side length × f.

and that means that f has to be multiplied in 3 times for the volume and 2 times for the surface area (once for every dimension).

so,

large volume = small volume × f × f × f =

= small volume × f³

1536 = 648 × f³

f³ = 1536/648 = 64/27

f = 4/3

and

large surface = small surface × f×f =

= small surface × f²

small surface = large surface / f² = 864 / 16/9 =

= 864 × 9/16 = 54 × 9 = 486 m²

Mrs. Owens was making Thanksgiving dinner for 10
saul85 [17]

Well if she is making dinner for 10 people and each person want 2 pieces then you need to multiple 10 x 2 = 20. So she is going to need to make 20 pieces.

If each of her pumpkin pies only has 8 pieces then she is going to have to make 3 pies.

3 pies x 8 pieces = 24 pieces of pumpkin pie. So she has to make 3 pies because she needs 20 pieces since everyone wants 2.

In conclusion Mrs. Owens has to make 3 pies and she is going to have 4 pieces left over.

Paul [167]
A. You may set the variables in either order. But for argument sake, let's set as follows:

x = Amount of bookshelves
y = Amount of tables

B. Because of the amount of things you need to make, the following is an inequality using those variables.

x + y > 25

Plus you can determine a second inequality based on the amount of money that you have to spend. 

20x + 45y < 675

Finally you may also add in that each value must be greater than or equal to zero, since they cannot have negative tables. 

C. By solving the system and looking at basic constraints when graphed, you can see the feasible region has 4 vertices.

Can someone help me out ? Don't just guess the answer :(
Monica [59]
1) 2m+6 / m² + 7m - 12  +  (m+2)/(m+4)

= 2(m+3) / (m+4)(m+3)  + (m+2)/(m+4)

= 2/(m+4) + (m+2)/(m+4)

= 2+m+2 / (m+4)

= m+4 / m+4

= 1  [ Option A ]

Answer 2) 3/ (x+4)  + 7/ (x-3)

=  3(x-3) + 7(x+4)/ (x² +x - 12)

= 3x-9 + 7x + 28 / (x² +x - 12)

= 10x + 19 / (x² +x - 12)  [ Option A ]

Hope this helps!
