The expression representing the volume of the prism is given as:
Volume=[base area]*[height]
base area is the area of the pentagon;
The area of pentagon is given by:
Area of pentagon=a^2ntan(180/n)
a=apothem length
n=number of sides
Area=2.8^2*5tan(180/5)
Area=28.48=28.5 cm^2
Therefore the expression for the volume of the prism with height,h, will be:
volume=28.5h cm^3

Find the error & explain why it is wrong:
ICE Princess25 [194]

Step b is wrong. The slope is the change in y over the change in x.

Step b should be (18- 8)/( 10-6)

= 10/4

= 5/2

1. How can you tell that a point on the graph is a maximum or minimum?
spin [16.1K]

Answer:

1) To see whether it is a maximum or a minimum, in this case we can simply look at the graph. f(x) is a parabola, and we can see that the turning point is a minimum. By finding the value of x where the derivative is 0, then, we have discovered that the vertex of the parabola is at (3, −4).

Which linear equation has no solution? 5x+12=5x−7
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer:

Trying to solve this leads to an absurdity, so No Solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

5x+12=5x−7

Lets attempt to solve:

Subtract 5x from both sides

5x - 5x + 12 = 5x - 5x - 7

0 + 12 = 0 - 7

12 = -7

This is absurd so there is no solution.

Evaluate 6a +3ab, when a=4 and b=5
Gwar [14]
To evaluate this, plug in the number 4 for the variable a and the number 5 for the variable 5.

6a + 3ab
6(4) + 3(4)(5)

To solve this multiply then add.
Multiply from left to right and don't add until everything has been multiplied.
Basically, 6(4) + 3(4)(5) = (6 • 4) + (3 • 4 • 5).
6 • 4 = 24
3 • 4 = 12
12 • 5 = 60

Now we have 24 + 60.
Just add and you have your answer!
24 + 60 = 84

So when a is 4 and b is 5, <span>6a + 3ab is equal to 84.

Hope this helps!</span>
