Ok, so we can fill the part of the box that corresponds to the 8x4 inches with the boxes that are 1 cubic inch - that wound be 8x4, that is 32 such boxes.

then the rest would be 8x \frac{1}{2} inches, that is 4 cubic inches.

In order to fill in 4 cubic inches with  \frac{1}{8} inches boxes we calculate:

4/ \frac{1}{8}=4*8=32  So it's also 32 such small boxes!

Let’s say Reena and Greg each work for 20 minutes making envelopes. Who will have more envelopes to sell in the flea market? Wha
Veronika [31]

Answer:

The slope of f(x) is greater than g(x). In fact, it is double the slope of g(x). This means Reena can make envelopes two times as fast as Greg. But the y-intercept of g(x) is greater than f(x), meaning at 0 minutes, Greg starts with more envelopes than Reena. If they work for 20 minutes, Greg will have 10 more envelopes than Reena. But if they work longer than 30 minutes, Reena will have a larger stock of envelopes than Greg.

Please help find domain and range
Oxana [17]
<h3>Answer:  Choice A</h3>
  • Domain:  x > 4
  • Range: y > 0

========================================================

Explanation:

We want to avoid having a negative number under the square root. Solving x-4 \ge 0 leads to x \ge 4

So it appears the domain could involve x = 4 itself; however, if we tried that x value, then we'd get a division by zero error.

So in reality, the domain is x > 4.

-------------

The range of y = sqrt(x) is the set of positive real numbers. So y > 0 is the range for this equation. Shifting left and right does not affect the range, so the range of y = sqrt(x-4) is also y > 0.

We are dividing a positive number (3) over some positive number in the denominator. Overall, the expression \frac{3}{\sqrt{x-4}} is positive because positive/positive = positive.

Therefore, the range of the given equation is y > 0

-------------

The graph is shown below. We have a vertical asymptote at x = 4 and a horizontal asymptote at y = 0. The green curve is fenced in the upper right corner (northeast corner).

The diameter of Circle Q terminates on the circumference of the circle at (3,0) and (3,-7) . Write the equation of the circle in
Deffense [45]

Step-by-step explanation:

The center of a circle with 2 end points of a di diameter is the midpoint of the two endpoints.

The formula needed to find the minpoints is

(x,y) = (x2 + x1)/2, (y2 + y1)/2

x2 = 3

x1 = 3

y2 = 0

y1 = -7

midpoint = (3 + 3)/2, (0 - 7)/2

midp[oint = 3,-3.5

The midpoint is the center of the circle. Observe that the signs get changed when entering the values for (x,y)

So far what you have is (x - 3)^2 + (y + 3.5)^2 = r^2

To determine r^2 you need only take the distance from the center to oneof the endpoints.

r^2 = (3 - 3)^2 + (3.5 - 0)^2

r^2 = 3.5^2

r^2 = 12.25

Answer: (x - 3)^2 + (y + 3.5)^2 = 12.25
