A new playground is in the shape of a square. on a scale drawing, the vertices of the playground’s coordinates are: (6,0.5)

If you were to roll the dice one time what is the probability it will NOT land on a 2? Put your answer in fraction form.

OLEGan [10]

Answer:

5/6

Step-by-step explanation:

On a standard 6-sided die, there is only one 2. That means that there are 5 other numbers that it could land on (1, 3, 4, 5, 6).

Using that information, the probability of it not landing on a 2 is 5 out of 6 or 5/6. This is because you must do part over whole. The "part" in this situation is the 5 "wanted" numbers, and the "whole" is 6 because there are six potential numbers that it could land on.

I hope this helps.

Explain how to use the Pythagorean Theorem to find the missing length of a right triangle.<br>

tino4ka555 [31]

Pythagorean theorem.

a^2+b^2=c^2

This means that the square of the length of the 2 legs of a right triangle added together = the square of the length of the hypotenuses or diagonal.

If you know 2 of the values in the 3 variables a,b,c what would you do to find the missing variable value?

I will not write the exact answers to this problem. I think you can figure how to write it out yourselves.

See the attached picture.

Create an equation for the volume of the box, find the zeroes, and sketch the graph of the function.

The resulting box has a volume

$V(x)=x(8-x)(12-x)=x^3-20x^2+96x$

because the volume of a box is the product of its width $(12-x)$ , length $(8-x)$ , and height $(x)$ .

find the zeroes

You know right away from the factored form of $V(x)$ that the zeroes are $x=0,8,12$ . (zero product property)

sketch the graph of the function

Easy to plot by hand. You know the zeroes, and you can check the sign of $V(x)$ for any values of $x$ between these zeros to get an idea of what the graph of $V(x)$ looks like. See the second attached picture.

Here's what I mean by "check the sign" in case you don't follow. We know $V(x)=0$ when $x=0$ and $x=8$ . So we pick some value of $x$ between them, say $x=1$ , and find that

$V(1)=1(8-1)(12-1)=7\cdot11=77$

which is positive, so $V(x)$ will be positive for any other $x$ between 0 and 8. Similarly we would find that $V(x)$ for $x$ between 8 and 12, and so on.

What is the size of the cutout he needs to make so that he can fit the most marbles in the box?

It's impossible to answer this without knowing the volume of each marble...

If Thomas wants a volume of 12 cubic inches, what size does the cutout need to be?

Thomas wants $V(x)=12$ , so you solve

$x^3-20x^2+96x=12$

While this is possible to do by hand, the procedure is tedious (look up "solving the cubic equation"). With a calculator, you'd find three approximate solutions

$x\approx0.1284$
