Answer: 5.88 feet tall

Step-by-step explanation:

Using this formula

Interest =principal×rate×time/100

Principal is the actual growth=3ft

Rate is the 32%

Time is 3yrs

Interest =3×32×3/100

Interest =2.88

To get the value for 3yrs,add the interest to the principal value

Exact value in 3yrs=

3+2.88

=5.88 feet tall

A cube has an edge of 2 feet. The edge is increasing at the rate of 5 feet per minute. Express the volume of the cube as a funct

Agata [3.3K]

Answer:

$V(m) = (2 + 5m)^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Solid Shape = Cube

Edge = 2 feet

Increment = 5 feet per minute

Required

Determine volume as a function of minute

From the question, we have that the edge of the cube increases in a minute by 5 feet

<em>This implies that,the edge will increase by 5m feet in m minutes;</em>

Hence,

$New\ Edge = 2 + 5m$

Volume of a cube is calculated as thus;

$Volume = Edge^3$

Substitute 2 + 5m for Edge

$Volume = (2 + 5m)^3$

Represent Volume as a function of m

$V(m) = (2 + 5m)^3$

I need to know the answer for the picture

Airida [17]

Answer:

a = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

We can use cross products to solve

8 a

----- = -------

28 7

8*7 = 28*a

Divide each side by 28

56/28 = 28a/28

2 =a

A relation is given in the table below. Write out the ordered pairs for the inverse, and then determine if the inverse is a func

Ganezh [65]

X: 1, 2, 3, 4, 5
y: 0, 1, 0, 2, 0

function: (1,0) (2,1) (3,0) (4,2) (5,0)

function is identified as a special kind of relation wherein the x-coordinate will only have one corresponding y-coordinate.

inverse of the relation is the interchange of the x and y coordinates.

inverse: (0,1) (1,2) (0,3) (2,4) (0,5)

The inverse is not a function. There are more than one x-coordinate that results to different y-coordinates. This is made evident when x = 0 ; y = 1,3, and 5.

What are the ratios for sin A and cos A? The triangle is not drawn to scale.

dalvyx [7]

Answer:

$SinA = \frac{84}{85}$ and $CosA=\frac{13}{85}$

Step-by-step explanation:

The ratios of sine and cos are defined as follows:

$Sin A = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}$ , and

$CosA = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}$

The hypotenuse is always the side opposite of the 90 degree angle (for the given triangle, the hypotenuse is 85)

Since we are looking at the angle A, the opposite side with respect to A would be the side length of 84. That leaves the side 13 as the adjacent side.

Thus, we can now write:

$Sin A = \frac{Opposite}{Hypotenuse}\\SinA = \frac{84}{85}$

$CosA = \frac{Adjacent}{Hypotenuse}\\CosA=\frac{13}{85}$

The correct answer is the first answer choice.
