What is the initial value in the function 2x + 3y = 6?

maw [93]

<h2>Explanation:</h2><h2></h2>

The initial value of this function is the y-intercept. We know that the slope-intercept form of the equation of a line is given by:

$y=mx+b \\ \\ \\ Where: \\ \\ \\ m:slope \\ \\ b:y-intercept$

Writing our equation in slope intercept form:

$2x + 3y = 6 \\ \\ \\ \text{Subtract 2x from both sides}: \\ \\ 2x -2x+ 3y = 6-2x \\ \\ 3y=6-2x \\ \\ \\ \text{Divide both sides by 3}: \\ \\ y=\frac{6-2x}{3} \\ \\ y=-\frac{2x}{3}+2$

So the initial value is:

$b=3$

The surface areas of two similar hexagonal prisms are 882cm² and 1,058 cm²? What is the scale factor of the smaller

max2010maxim [7]

Answer:

scale factor of the smaller prism to the larger prism is B. 21/23

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

surface areas of two similar hexagonal prisms are 882cm² and 1,058 cm²?

scale factor is ratio of sides of two similar objects

thus scale factor for given prism will be = side of smaller prism / side of larger prism

in general rule

If shape of solid has scale factor of k

scale factor of area = k²

scale factor of volume = k³

_____________________________

Given in the problem area of two prism is given

we know area = side^2

scale factor of area = k²

k^2 = area of smaller prism / area of larger prism

$k^2 = 882 / 1058 = 441/529\\k = \sqrt{ 441/529} \\k = 21/23$

Thus, correct option is B 21/23.

The sum of 4 consecutive number is 330 what is the sum of the largest and the smallest number

Drupady [299]

X + x + 1 + x + 2 + x + 3 = 330
4x + 6 = 330
4x = 324, x = 81
Smallest number: 81
Biggest number: 81 + 3 = 84
Sum: 81 + 84 = 165
The answer is 165

98 POINTS! PLEASE HELP! I been stuck on this assignment for over 2 weeks. My teacher gave me a simple explanation when I asked f

See the attached picture.

Create an equation for the volume of the box, find the zeroes, and sketch the graph of the function.

The resulting box has a volume

$V(x)=x(8-x)(12-x)=x^3-20x^2+96x$

because the volume of a box is the product of its width $(12-x)$ , length $(8-x)$ , and height $(x)$ .

find the zeroes

You know right away from the factored form of $V(x)$ that the zeroes are $x=0,8,12$ . (zero product property)

sketch the graph of the function

Easy to plot by hand. You know the zeroes, and you can check the sign of $V(x)$ for any values of $x$ between these zeros to get an idea of what the graph of $V(x)$ looks like. See the second attached picture.

Here's what I mean by "check the sign" in case you don't follow. We know $V(x)=0$ when $x=0$ and $x=8$ . So we pick some value of $x$ between them, say $x=1$ , and find that

$V(1)=1(8-1)(12-1)=7\cdot11=77$

which is positive, so $V(x)$ will be positive for any other $x$ between 0 and 8. Similarly we would find that $V(x)$ for $x$ between 8 and 12, and so on.

What is the size of the cutout he needs to make so that he can fit the most marbles in the box?

It's impossible to answer this without knowing the volume of each marble...

If Thomas wants a volume of 12 cubic inches, what size does the cutout need to be?

Thomas wants $V(x)=12$ , so you solve

$x^3-20x^2+96x=12$

While this is possible to do by hand, the procedure is tedious (look up "solving the cubic equation"). With a calculator, you'd find three approximate solutions

$x\approx0.1284$
