If the surface area of the box of cereal is 272 inches squared, find the length of the box.
LekaFEV [45]

Answer:

x= 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

you left out the other lengths but since i had this same question once, the other lengths are 12 and 2-

dimensions of the box:

12 in x 2 in x ?

=272 square inches

and we know that there are 6 faces

area=  2 *(12 * 2) + 2 *(2*x) + 2 *(12*x)

area = 272 sq. in.  = 48 + 4x + 24x

272 = 48 + 28x

272 - 48 = 28x

224 = 28x

x = 8 inches

good luck :)

i hope this helps

brainliest would be highly appreciated

have a nice day!

What is the solution to the inequality below x2>25​
4vir4ik [10]

Answer:

Ans: (-5, 5)

-5 < x < 5

Step-by-step explanation:

Standard form: f(x) = x^2 - 25 < 0.

First solve x^2 - 25 = 0 --> x = +- 5

Use the algebraic method to solve f(x) < 0. Between the 2 real roots (-5) and (5), f(x) < 0, as opposite in sign to a = 1.

Answer by open interval: (-5, 5)

What is the center of the circle that you can circumscribe about a triangle with vertices A(2, 6), B(2, 0), and C(10, 0)?
denis23 [38]
The three points A,B,C are all points on this circle.
Each point is then equal distance from the center, that distance being the radius of the circle.
Using the distance formula, we can find the center of the circle  (x,y):
d^2 = (x-x_0)^2 + (y-y_0)^2
Plugging in points A and B into distance formula, then setting them equal to each other gives:
(x-2)^2+(y-6)^2 = (x-2)^2 + y^2
Right away we can cancel out the x terms leaving:
(y-6)^2 = y^2
Expand Left side and Solve for y:
y^2 -12y +36 = y^2
y = 3
Plug in points B and C as before:
(x-2)^2 + y^2 = (x-10)^2 + y^2
Here we can cancel the y-terms.
Expand and solve for x:
x^2 -4x+4 = x^2 -20x+100
16x = 96
x = 6
Therefore the center of the circle is the point (6,3)
