We are tasked to solve for the ratio of the two boxes. Boxes are cubes. We can use the formula in solving the surface area of the box as shown below:
Surface Area of Cube = 6a² where "a" is the length of the side.
For smaller box:
Area= 6(12)²=864
Area =864
For the larger box:
Area = 6(18)²
Area=1944

Then, the ratio is:
Area smaller box/Area larger box =864/1944
Ratio=4:9

Given: △FKL, FK= a<br> m∠F=45°, m∠L=30°<br> Find: FL
mr Goodwill [35]

The sum of angles of a triangle is 180°, so m∠K = 180° -45° -30° = 105°.

The Law of Sines tells you

... FL/sin(∠K) = FK/sin(∠L)

Solving for FL, we get

... FL = FK·sin(∠K)/sin(∠L)

... FL = a·sin(105°)/sin(30°) = a·sin(105°)/(1/2)

... FL = 2a·sin(105°) ≈ 1.93185a

‼️Someone Please help Me the graph is in the picture ‼️ Will make brainliest
baherus [9]

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation V=-32t+256 and the graph below describe the velocity V in feet per second of a ball <em>t</em> seconds after it is shot into the air.

To find the balls velocity after seven seconds, substitute t = 7 into the function expression:

V(7)=-32\cdot 7+256\\ \\=-224+256\\ \\=32\ ft/sec

A farmer wants to build a fence enclosing a rectangular region bordering a river. If the farmer has 500 feet of fencing, find th
Romashka [77]

Answer:

31,250 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x represent the length of fence parallel to the river. Then the ends of the rectangle will have dimesion (500-x)/2, and the total area will be ...

... A = x(500-x)/2

This function describes a parabola with zeros at x=0 and x=500. The vertex (maximum) will be located halfway between these, at x=250.

The maximum size pen has area ...

... A = 250(500 -250)/2 = 31,250 . . . . sq ft

Solve 8(1/4×+3/4)-3=17
stepladder [879]
8(1/4x + 3/4) -3 =17

First distribute which results in (8/4x + 24/4)-3 =17.
Now just simply simplify it into (2x+6)-3 =17
Then you combine like term : 2x+3 =17

Subtract 3 on both sides : 2x=14

Finally divide 2 on both sides to isolate x: x=7
