Answer:
The formula for the volume of a prism is V = Bh
where,
B is the base area
h is the height.
Since, the base of the prism is a rectangle, therefore, volume of a rectangular prism = (L * B) * h
Assumptions:
Length, L and Width, B cannot be the same.
1.
h = 4 ft
B = 2 ft
L = 9 ft
2.
h = 4 ft
B = 3 ft
L = 6 ft
3.
h = 6 ft
B = 2 ft
L = 6 ft
4.
h = 2 ft
B = 2 ft
L = 18 ft
Step-by-step explanation:
Given:
Last year 80 students signed up for a summer trip to Washington, D.C.
This summer 50 students have signed up to go.
To find:
The percent decrease in the number of students.
Solution:
We have,
Students in last year = 80
Students in this year = 50
Now,
Therefore, the correct option is B.
A is (2, -1)
The X axis will not change since A is not going left or right of (2,2). You would count down 3 spaces for the y-axis and that would land you at -1 or you could solve by subtraction.
2-3= -1
<span>The two points that are most distant from (-1,0) are
exactly (1/3, 4sqrt(2)/3) and (1/3, -4sqrt(2)/3)
approximately (0.3333333, 1.885618) and (0.3333333, -1.885618)
Rewriting to express Y as a function of X, we get
4x^2 + y^2 = 4
y^2 = 4 - 4x^2
y = +/- sqrt(4 - 4x^2)
So that indicates that the range of values for X is -1 to 1.
Also the range of values for Y is from -2 to 2.
Additionally, the ellipse is centered upon the origin and is symmetrical to both the X and Y axis.
So let's just look at the positive Y values and upon finding the maximum distance, simply reflect that point across the X axis. So
y = sqrt(4-4x^2)
distance is
sqrt((x + 1)^2 + sqrt(4-4x^2)^2)
=sqrt(x^2 + 2x + 1 + 4 - 4x^2)
=sqrt(-3x^2 + 2x + 5)
And to simplify things, the maximum distance will also have the maximum squared distance, so square the equation, giving
-3x^2 + 2x + 5
Now the maximum will happen where the first derivative is equal to 0, so calculate the first derivative.
d = -3x^2 + 2x + 5
d' = -6x + 2
And set d' to 0 and solve for x, so
0 = -6x + 2
-2 = -6x
1/3 = x
So the furthest point will be where X = 1/3. Calculate those points using (1) above.
y = +/- sqrt(4 - 4x^2)
y = +/- sqrt(4 - 4(1/3)^2)
y = +/- sqrt(4 - 4(1/9))
y = +/- sqrt(4 - 4/9)
y = +/- sqrt(3 5/9)
y = +/- sqrt(32)/sqrt(9)
y = +/- 4sqrt(2)/3
y is approximately +/- 1.885618</span>
