Box volume can be computed by getting the base area multiplied by the total height.

in formula for volume we have,

V = Base Area x H. Given the Volume of 144 cu in and H = 4.5 in. we can solve for Base Area (BA)

Volume (144 cu in) = BA x Height (4.5 in)

BA = 144 cu in/4.5 in

Base Area = 32 square inches

A unit vector lies in the xy plane, at an angle of 137 degrees from the x axis, with a positive y component. What is the unit ve

Fed [463]

Answer: ( -0.731, 0.682)

Step-by-step explanation:

The unit vector is defined as a vector that points in the same direction as our vector (137 degrees from the x-axis) and has a magnitude of 1.

Knowing the angle, is really simple to do it.

First, we know that for a radius R and an angle A, the rectangular coordinates can be written as:

x = R*cos(A)

y = R*sin(A)

And if we want that the magnitude/modulus of our vector to be 1, then R = 1, and we know that A = 137°

x = 1*cos(137°) = -0.731

y = 1*sin(137°) = 0.682

Then the unit vector is: ( -0.731, 0.682)

Alexxx [7]

Question is Incomplete, Complete question is given below,

Murphy loves pistachio nuts. Every Saturday morning, she walks to the market and buys some. Last week, she bought two pounds and paid $7.96, and this week she bought only one-half pound and paid $1.99. What the unit rate for pistachio nuts?

Answer:

The unit rate for pistachio nuts is $3.98.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given;

Price of 2 pounds of pistachio nuts = $7.96

We need to find the price of 1 pound of pistachio nuts.

To find the same we will use the unitary method,

Hence ,

Price of 1 pound of pistachio nuts = $\frac{\$7.96}{2} = \$3.98$

Also given:

Price of half pound of pistachio nuts = $1.99

We need to find the price of 1 pound of pistachio nuts.

To find the same we will use the unitary method,

Hence ,

Price of 1 pound of pistachio nuts = $\$1.99\times 2 = \$3.98$

Hence, The unit rate for pistachio nuts is $3.98

In the figure, angle D measures 45° and angle E measures 87°. What is the measurement of angle H? 42°

Vinvika [58]

The complete question is shown in the attached image

Answer:
measure angle H = 42°

Explanation:
There is a theorem that states that:
"In a triangle, the measure of the exterior angle is equal to the sum of the measures of the two non-adjacent angles to the exterior angle"

In the given, we have:
angle E is an exterior angle to triangle DFH
The two non-adjacent angles to angle E are angles D and H

Based on the above rule:
measure angle E = measure angle D + measure angle H

We are given that:
angle E = 87°
angle D = 45°

Substitute with the givens in the above rule and solve for the measure of angle H as follows:
angle E = angle D + angle H
87° = 45° + measure angle H
measure angle H = 87° - 45°
measure angle H = 42°

Hope this helps :)
