A prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base. What shape is formed?

The shape formed, when a prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base, will be congruent to its base. Hence, it will also be <u>heart-shaped</u>.

A prism is a polyhedron made up of n parallelogram faces that connect the n-sided polygon base, the second base, which is a translated duplicate of the first base, and the n faces. The bases are translated into all cross-sections that are parallel to them.

In the question, we are informed that a prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base.

We are asked what shape is formed.

From the above discussion, we know that the bases are translated into all cross-sections that are parallel to them, that is, all cross-sections parallel to the base, will be congruent to the base.

Thus, the shape formed, when a prism with a heart-shaped base is sliced parallel to the base, will be congruent to its base. Hence, it will also be <u>heart-shaped</u>.

Determine the volume in litres of 14kg of petrol of density 700kg/m³​
valkas [14]

Answer:

p =  \frac{m}{v}

Step-by-step explanation:

Density is the ratio of an object's mass to its volume, and it measures how compact an object is. The density of an object, p, is directly proportional to its mass, m, and inversely proportional to its volume, V:

p =  \frac{m}{v}

For what values of x is f(x) = |x + 1| differentiable? I'm struggling my butt off for this course
pav-90 [236]

By definition of absolute value, you have

f(x) = |x+1| = \begin{cases}x+1&\text{if }x+1\ge0 \\ -(x+1)&\text{if }x+1

or more simply,

f(x) = \begin{cases}x+1&\text{if }x\ge-1\\-x-1&\text{if }x

On their own, each piece is differentiable over their respective domains, except at the point where they split off.

For <em>x</em> > -1, we have

(<em>x</em> + 1)<em>'</em> = 1

while for <em>x</em> < -1,

(-<em>x</em> - 1)<em>'</em> = -1

More concisely,

f'(x) = \begin{cases}1&\text{if }x>-1\\-1&\text{if }x

Note the strict inequalities in the definition of <em>f '(x)</em>.

In order for <em>f(x)</em> to be differentiable at <em>x</em> = -1, the derivative <em>f '(x)</em> must be continuous at <em>x</em> = -1. But this is not the case, because the limits from either side of <em>x</em> = -1 for the derivative do not match:

\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-1^-}f'(x) = \lim_{x\to-1}(-1) = -1

\displaystyle \lim_{x\to-1^+}f'(x) = \lim_{x\to-1}1 = 1

All this to say that <em>f(x)</em> is differentiable everywhere on its domain, <em>except</em> at the point <em>x</em> = -1.

I need help I don’t get this
AlexFokin [52]

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

-2(2x+5)-x=5(x+1) +15

distribute

-4x-10-x=5x+5+15

add common terms

-5x-10=5x+20

move common terms to the same sides

-30=10x

divide

x=-3
