A rectangular piece of metal is 20 in longer than it is wide. Squares with sides 4 in long are cut from the four corners and the

flaps are folded upward to form an open box. If the volume of the box is 1200 in3,
what were the original dimensions of the piece of metal?

Answer:

width = 12.5

Step-by-step explanation:

rectangular volume = height * width * length

1200 = 4 * w * (20 + 4)

1200 = 4 * w * 24

1200 = 96w

12.5=w

Aneli [31]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Myles.......make 3 shots for every 5 attempted....took 35 shots...

35/5 * 3 = 7 * 3 = 21 jump shots made.....or basically take 3/5 of 35 which equals 21

Ashley...makes 5 shots for every 7 attempts...took 35 shots....

35/7 * 5 = 5 * 5 = 25 jump shots made.....or 5/7 of 35 which equals 25

so Ashley made more shots <====

mr. tuttle traveled 242 miles at the rate of 53 miles per hour how many hours did it take him to travel to his destination​
Artist 52 [7]

Answer:

4.57 hours

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation v = d/t is used.

since the time is to be found, 242 miles is divided by 53 miles/hr which gives 4.566 hours so if you round it up. It will be 4.57 hours or 4.6 hours.

Can anyone help me with this?

With trig functions, multiple x values correspond with the same y value.
Using an initial x value (the principle value), we can find other x values for the same y value, this is what we are are being asked to find in this question.
There are slightly different ways to find these x values (also known as solutions) for each of the basic trig functions.
The x values are in degrees for the basic trig functions.
For cosine, the rule is as follows:
360 - principle value;
this will give what I, personally, like to think of as a secondary principle value (this value is not actually recognised as a secondary principle value, I just like to think of it as such). Anyway, all other solutions can the be found by adding or substrating any integer multiple of 360 to/from the PV and 'secondary PV'.

For your question:
cos60 = 1/2
60 is the x value (PV)
so...
360 - 60 = 300 is the 'secondary PV'
Just to be clear, this means that if I were to find the cos300, I would get 1/2.

That is sufficient for explaining the answer to this particular question but if you wanted to find any other solution, you would just have to do either:
60 + or - n(360)
or...
300 + or - n(360),
where n = any integer
