The volume of the cube is 6*6*6 (in cubed)=216 (in cubed).

    in 1 cubic inch, there is 0.5 lb of weight

so in 216 cubic inch, there are 216*0.5 lb = 108 lbs of weight  

Answer: 108 lbs

Answer: 108 lbs.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : A cube is packed with decorative pebbles. If the cube has a side length of 6 inches.

Volume of cube = (side)^3

i.e. Volume of cube = (6)^3=216\text{ cubic inches}

Since , each pebble weighs on average 0.5 lb per cubic inch.

Then, the total weight of the pebbles in the cube will be

= 0.5 x Volume of cube

= 0.5\times216=108\text{ lb}

Hence,  the total weight of the pebbles in the cube =108 lbs.

C.is decrease by 1 foot every 500 miles D. Is decrease by 1 foot every 1000 miles
Tasya [4]

Answer:

Option A

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope of a line passing through two points (x_1,y_1) and (x_2,y_2) is given by,

Slope = \frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

Line shown in the graph is passing through two points (2, 8000) and (4, 7000).

Therefore, slope of the given line = \frac{8000-7000}{2-4}

                                                        = -500 feet per mile

Which means, altitude decreases by 500 ft every mile.

(Negative sign represents the decrease)

Option A is the correct option.

The height in feet of a ball dropped from a 150 ft building is given by h(t)=-16 ft^2 +150, where t is the time in seconds after
ipn [44]

Answer:

Part 1) Option A. h(2) = 86.00 means that after 2 seconds, the height of the ball is 86.00 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

we have

h(t)=-16t^{2}+150

where

t ----> is the time in seconds after the ball is dropped

h(t) ----> he height in feet of a ball dropped from a 150 ft

Find h(2)

That means ----> Is the height of the ball  2 seconds after the ball is dropped

Substitute the value of t=2 sec in the equation

h(2)=-16(2)^{2}+150=86\ ft

therefore

After 2 seconds, the height of the ball is 86.00 ft.

Write the first 6 terms of the arithmetic sequence whose first term is 8 and has a common difference of 2
soldier1979 [14.2K]

Answer: The first 6 terms are = 8, 10, 12,14,16,18

Step-by-step explanation:

The NTH term of an Arithmetic Sequence is given as

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d

where a1 = First term  given as 8 and

d=  common difference given as 2

Therefore  We have that

the first term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d = 8+(1-1) 2

a1= 8

second term=

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a2= 8 + (2-1) 2

= 8+ 2(1) = 10

3rd term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a3= 8 + (3-1) 2

= 8+ 2(2)= 8 + 4=12

4th term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a4= 8 + (4-1) 2

= 8+ 2(3)= 8+6=14

5th term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a5= 8 + (5-1) 2

= 8+ 2(4)=8+ 8=16

6th term

an = a1 + (n - 1 ) d= a6= 8 + (6-1) 2

= 8+ 2(5)=8 +10 =18
