Answer:I think it would be $9

Step-by-step explanation:

50% of 20 is $10

10% of $10 is $1

Subtract 1 from 10, which gives you $9

An open-top box with a square base is to have a volume of 4 cubic feet. Find the dimensions of the box (in ft) that can be made

Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

The dimension of box= $2ft\times 2ft\times 1ft$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given that

Volume of box=4 cubic feet

Let x be the side of square base and h be the height of box

Volume of box= $lbh=x^2h$

$4=x^2h$

$h=\frac{4}{x^2}$

Now, surface area of box,A= $x^2+4xh$

$A=x^2+4x(\frac{4}{x^2})=x^2+\frac{16}{x}$

$\frac{dA}{dx}=2x-\frac{16}{x^2}$

$\frac{dA}{dx}=0$

$2x-\frac{16}{x^2}=0$

$2x=\frac{16}{x^2}$

$x^3=8$

$x=2$

$\frac{d^2A}{dx^2}=2+\frac{32}{x^3}$

Substitute x=2

$\frac{d^2A}{dx^2}=2+\frac{32}{2^3}=2+4=6>0$

Hence, the area of box is minimum at x=2

Therefore, side of square base,x=2 ft

Height of box,h= $\frac{4}{2^2}=1 ft$

Hence, the dimension of box= $2ft\times 2ft\times 1ft$

a pattern has 14 triangles to every 18 yellow triangles. what is the ratio of yellow triangles to blue triangles?

erma4kov [3.2K]

9:7
Ratios are always simplified so by dividing both 18 and 14 by 2 you get 9 and seven. Because yellow triangles is stated first the 9 is put before the 7 blue triangles.

State the slope of the line. <br> A:undefined <br> B:1<br> C:-2<br> D:0<br> Help ASAP

Nikitich [7]

Every point on this line has the same y coordinate, which is -2. There is no "rise" at all so rise = 0 while the "run" is any nonzero value you want. If you made the run be say 2, then

slope = rise/run = 0/2 = 0

The slope is 0

Answer: D) 0

note: all horizontal lines like this have a slope of 0. It doesn't matter what the y intercept is
