Your principal surprises you by buying your class a turtle. He brings the turtle to your class along with a sheet from the pet s

tore titled "Turtle Tank Rule."
*Tank walls must be at least 1 foot tall so the turtle can't climb out.

*There must be at least 400 square inches of floor space for the turtle to walk around on.

Your teacher says the volume of the tank must be smaller than 5000 cubic inches so it doesn't take up too much room in the classroom.

Give the dimensions of a tank that would work for your new turtle. Use words and numbers to explain how your tank satisfies the "Turtle Tank Rules" and your teacher requirements.

The height of the tank must be at least 1 foot, or 12 inches. We know the floor area (which is length x width) must be at least 400 inches. Therefore these minimum dimensions already tell us that the minimum volume is 400 x 12 = 4800 cubic inches. Since we have a maximum of 5000 cubic inches, the volume must be within the range of 4800 - 5000 cubic inches.

We can set the height at exactly 1 ft (or 12 inches). Then we can select length and width that multiply to 400 square inches, for example, L = 40 inches and W = 10 in. This gives us a tank of dimensions 40 x 10 x 12 = 4800 cubic inches, which fits all the criteria.

marta [7]
The team made 2,061.50 at the first game and 2,000.00 at the second game. Because 2,000.00 would be 61.50 less than the amount made at the first game. You can check it by adding 2,061.50 + 2,000.00 which equals $4,061.50.

Which choice would transform the rectangle to quadrant IV?
8090 [49]

Answer:

reflect over the x-axis​

Step-by-step explanation:

Transformation is the movement of  point from its initial location to a new location. Types of transformation is rotation, reflection, translation and dilation.

If a point A(x, y) is rotated 180° clockwise about the origin the new position would be A'(-x, -y)

If a point A(x, y) is reflected over the y-axis the new position would be A'(-x, y).

If a point A(x, y) is reflected over the x-axis the new position would be A'(x, -y)

If a point A(x, y) is translated a units left the new position would be A'(x-a, y).

The rectangle has points at (2, 2), (2, 5), (7,2), (7,5). If the rectangle is reflected over the x-axis the new position would be at (2, -2), (2, -5), (7, -2), (7, -5) which is at the fourth quadrant
