precalculus find two numbers whose product is -16 such that the sum of their squares is as small as possible

1 answer:

6 0

The answer is -4 and 4, since if you multiply the two, you get the product “-16” and if you add the squares of the two, you would get 32. The other options would be +or- 16 and 1, or 8 and 2, but adding the squares of those would result in a number larger than 32, therefore, the answers are 4 and -4.

Answer: 4 and -4

Answer:

3603 boxes.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rectangular Prism is actually a cuboid.

Volume of cuboid = length * width * height.

It is given that length = 16.5 m, width = 18.2 m, and height = 12 m. Therefore:

Volume = 16.5 * 18.2 * 12 = 3603.6 cubic meters.

Volume is actually the capacity of the shape. If the box has the volume of 1 cubic meters, then the number of boxes that can fit in the rectangular prism will be:

Number of boxes to be fit = Volume of Large container/Volume of Small Container.

Number of boxes = 3603.6/1 = 3603 boxes.

Therefore, 3603 boxes will fit the rectangular prism and 0.6 cubic meters will be the spare space!!!

kondor19780726 [428]

The complete question in the attached figure

we have that
the value of the digit in the hundreds place in the number 653,841 is---> 800

case A) 748,917
the value of the digit in the thousands place------> 8000
1/10 the value of the digit is-------> (1/10)*8000=800
800=800---------------> is ok

case B) 749,817
the value of the digit in the thousands place------> 9000
1/10 the value of the digit is-------> (1/10)*9000=900
900 is not 800

case C) 784,817
the value of the digit in the thousands place------> 4000
1/10 the value of the digit is-------> (1/10)*4000=400
400 is not 800

case D) 797,481
the value of the digit in the thousands place------> 7000
1/10 the value of the digit is-------> (1/10)*7000=700
700 is not 800

the answer is
the option A) 748,917
