Jennifer and her friends were bored one day and were playing with a tank of water whose dimensions were 48 centimeters long 30 c

entimeters wide, and 36 centimeters high. They had some heavy solid box shaped items that had a 12*12 centimeters square base and were 20 centimeters tall they put water in the tank so that it was 28 centimeters deep. and started carefully dropping the box shaped items into the tank and waching

Draw an illustration describing the problem as shown in the attached picture. The black box drawn represents the tank of water with dimensions labeled 30cm×48cm×36 cm. Jennifer and her friends threw heavy solid objects represented by the blue box. It has dimensions of 12cm×12m×20 cm. These boxes occupy the bottom of the tank up to a height of 28 cm drawn by the blue lines. Now, I think the question will be how many of those heavy solid objects will fill up the bottom of the tank. The other question would be, how much is the volume of water displaced by the heavy solid objects.

First, let's compute the volume of each solid object labeled as v.
v = 12×12×20
v = 2,880 cm³

Next, let's solve the volume to be filled up by these solid objects, labeled as V.
V = 30×48×28
V = 40,320 cm³

This is the volume of water displaced. When Jennifer and her friends drop the solid objects, each volume of object dropped corresponds to the same volume of water that overflows from the tank.

Next, we solve how many solid objects does it take to occupy 40,320 cm³.
Number of blocks =  40,320 cm³/2,880 cm³
Number of blocks = 14

Therefore, it would take 14 heavy solid objects to displace 40,320 cm³ of water.

What pattern do you notice in the numbers below? 1 = 1 × 1, and 1 × 1 × 1, and 1 × 1 × 1 64 = 8 × 8, and 4 × 4 × 4 729 = 27 × 27

Answer:

<h3>C. They are both perfect squares and perfect cubes.</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Perfect squares are numbers that their square root can be found easily without any remainder.

Given the following patterns;

1*1 = 1  and 1*1*1 = 1

It can be seen that 1 is 1 perfect square since 1*1 = 1² = 1

Also 1 is perfect cube since 1*1*1 = 1³ = 1 (cube of the value gives 1)

Similarly for the expression;

8*8 = 64

8² = 64 (since the square of 8 gives 64, then 64 is known to be a perfect square)

Also 4*4*4 = 64

i.e 4³ = 64 (This shows that the cube root of 64 is 4 making it a perfect cube since we can get a whole number for the cube root of 64)

The same is applicable for other expressions 729 = 27 × 27, and 9 × 9 × 9, 4,096 = 64 × 64, and 16 × 16 × 16

This values are easily expressed as a constant multiple of a number showing that they are both perfect squares and perfect cubes.

Help!!!i need it quick
Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

A linear function is written as:

y = a*x + b

Where a is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

An exponential equation is written as:

y = A*(r)^x

Where A is the initial quantity and r is the rate of growth.

If a and A are both positives, the similar characteristic of both types of functions is that as x increases, then the value of y will also increase. Then both functions are increasing functions.

They are different in how they increase, while a linear function increases at a constant rate, an exponential function increases slow at the beginning and really fast as x increases, as you can see in the image below where we compare the two types of functions, the green one is the linear function, and the blue one is the exponential function.
