Andy is designing a dice tray in the shape of a rectangular prism to use during a role-playing game. The tray needs to be three

centimeters high and have a volume of 252 cubic centimeters in order for the dice to roll properly. The length of the tray should be five centimeters longer than its width.
The volume of a rectangular prism is found using the formula V = l · w · h, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height.

Complete the equation that models the volume of the tray in terms of its width, x, in centimeters.

<span>The volume of a rectangular prism is 
 V = l · w · h
V= 252 cm3
h= 3 cm
l=5+W
W=x then l=5+x
V=(5+x)*x*3=252
3x</span><span>^2+15x=252 cm3

</span><span>the equation that models the volume of the tray in terms of its width, x, in centimeters.
</span>3x^2 +15x=252 cm3<span>
</span>

for width=7.5 cm

3x^2 +15x=3*(7.5) ^2+15*7.5= 281.25 cm3

<span>281.25>252 </span><span> </span>

<span>it is not possible that the width is 7.5 cms</span>

In how many ways can a committee of 4 be chosen from a group of 9 people?
QveST [7]
Since this is a combination not a permutation problem, (order does not matter) you should use the "n choose k" formula.

C=n!/(k!(n-k)!)  where C is the number of unique combinations, n equals the total number of possible choices and k equals the specific number of choices.  In this case:

C=9!/(4!(9-4)!)

C=9!/(4!5!)

C=362880/(24*120)

C=362880/2880

C=126

So there are 126 unique ways to pick 4 people from a group of 9 people.

Is 120% less than, more than or equal to 1
kati45 [8]
120% is the same as 120/100

Divide 120 with 100

120/100 = 1.2

1.2 > 1 ∴ 120% is 'more than' 1

Sam is moving bags of soil from a loading dock into a storeroom. The top soil weighs 40 pounds per bag and the mulch weighs 20 p
Levart [38]

Answer:

40x+20y\leq 480

Step-by-step explanation:

Givens

  • The top soil weighs 40 pounds per bag.
  • The mulch weighs 20 pounds per bag.
  • The cart can only carry up to 480 pounds.

Notice that the restriction is a maximum of 480 pounds, that means the inequality must include the sign \leq.

Now, let's call x the top soil and y the mulch, the inequality that represents this problem, would be

40x+20y\leq 480
