Answer:

Bianca's height = 42 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Let x be the Bianca height.

Given:

Meredith height = 60 inches

We need to find the Bianca height.

Solution:

From the given statement the Meredith's height is $\frac{2}{3}$ of Bianca's height plus 32 inches, so the equation is.

Meredith's height = $\frac{2}{3}(Bianca\ height)+32$

Substitute Meredith's height in above equation.

$60=\frac{2}{3}x+32$

Now we solve the above equation for x.

$\frac{2}{3}x=60-32$

$\frac{2}{3}x=28$

By cross multiplication.

$x=\frac{3\times 28}{2}$

28 divided by 2.

$x= 3\times 14$

$x=42\ in$

Therefore, the height of the Bianca is 42 inches.

A container in the shape of a square-based prism has a volume of 2744 cm'. What dimensions give the

Vinvika [58]

Answer:

The dimensions that give the minimum surface area are:

Length = 14cm

width = 14cm

height = 14cm

And the minimum surface is:

S = 1,176 cm^2

Step-by-step explanation:

A regular rectangular prism has the measures: length L, width W and height H.

The volume of this prism is:

V = L*W*H

The surface of this prism is:

S = 2*(L*W + H*L + H*W)

If the base of the prism is a square, then we have L = W

Then the equations become:

V = L*L*H = L^2*H

S = 2*(L^2 + 2*H*L)

We know that the volume of the figure is 2744 cm^3

Then:

V = 2744 cm^3 = H*(L^2)

In this equation, we can isolate H.

H = (2744 cm^3)/(L^2)

Now we can replace this on the surface equation:

S = 2*(L^2 + 2*L* (2744 cm^3)/(L^2))

S = 2*L^2 + 4(2744 cm^3)/L

Now we want to minimize the surface area, then we need to find the zeros of the first derivative of S.

S' = 2*(2*L) - 4*(2744 cm^3)/L^2

This is equal to zero when:

0 = 2*(2*L) - 4*(2744 cm^3)/L^2

0 = 4*L*L^2 - 4*(2744 cm^3)

4*(2744 cm^3) = 4*L^3

2744 cm^3 = L^3

∛(2744 cm^3) = L = 14cm

Then the length of the base that minimizes the surface is L = 14.

Then we have:

H = (2744 cm^3)/(L^2) = (2744 cm^3)/(14cm)^2 = 14cm

Then the surface is:

S = 2*(L^2 + 2*L*H) = 2*( (14cm)^2 + 2*(14cm)*(14cm)) = 1,176 cm^2

High expression is equivalent to ^4 square root x^10

Talja [164]

In order to find which expression is equivalent to $\sqrt[4]{x^{10}},$ simplify all given expressions:

0.

$\sqrt[4]{x^{10}}=x^{\frac{10}{4}}=x^{\frac{5}{2}}=x^{2.5}.$

1.

$x^2(\sqrt[4]{x^2})=x^2\cdot x^{\frac{2}{4}}=x^2\cdot x^{\frac{1}{2}}=x^2\cdot x^{0.5}=x^{2.5}.$

2.

$x^{2.2}.$

3.

$x^3(\sqrt[4]{x} )=x^3\cdot x^{\frac{1}{4}}=x^3\cdot x^{0.25}=x^{3.25}.$

4.

$x^5.$
