Answer:

"Two times the quantity of a number minus 12” is 2y - 12 .

Option (A) is correct .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given the statement in the question.

“two times the quantity of a number minus 12” this multiply a quantity by 2 and subtracted with 12 .

Let us assume that the quantity be y .

Multiply y by 2 and subtracted with 12

= 2y - 12

Therefore "two times the quantity of a number minus 12” is 2y - 12 .

Option (A) is correct .

Your answer choice would be B.

Y is your quantity
You minus 12 so...

Y - 12

Then it's two times that so...

2(Y-12)

Pythagorean theory m3/9=3

Anna71 [15]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

m3/9=3

We move all terms to the left:

m3/9-(3)=0

We multiply all the terms by the denominator

m3-3*9=0

We add all the numbers together, and all the variables

m^3-27=0

Use the figure below to answer the questions.

Archy [21]

Answer:

a. What is the name of the 3D shape?

The name of the 3D shape is Prism

b. What is the formula for total surface area for this shape?

Total surface area:

$S=2A_{b}+P_{b}h$

c. What is the surface area of the figure?

The surface area of the figure is 144 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

a. What is the name of the 3D shape?

The 3D shape has two congruent and parallel faces (triangles) and the other faces are parallelograms, then the 3D shape is a prism

b. What is the formula for total surface area for this shape?

Total Surface area:

$S=2A_{b}+P_{b}h$

where:

Area of the base of the prism: Ab

Perimeter of the base: Pb

Height of the prism: h

c. What is the surface area of the figure?

The base of the prism is a triangle. Then to calculate the area of the base, we must use the formula to calculate the area of a triangle:

$A_{b}=\frac{bh}{2}\\ A_{b}=\frac{(4 cm)(3 cm)}{2}\\ A_{b}=\frac{12cm^{2} }{2}\\ A_{b}=6cm^{2}$

The perimeter of the base is the perimeter of the triangle, equal to the sum of the sides of the triangle:

$P_{b}=4cm+3cm+5cm\\ P_{b}=12cm$

h: Height of the prism is the distance between the bases of the prism (the triangle), then h=11 cm

Then, replacing in the formula the known values:

$S=2(6 cm^{2})+(12 cm)(11 cm)\\ S=12 cm^{2}+132 cm^{2}\\ S=144 cm^{2}$

solmaris [256]

if indeed two functions are inverse of each other, then their composite will render a result of "x", namely, if g(x) is indeed an inverse of f(x), then

$\bf (g\circ f)(x)=x\implies g(~~f(x)~~)=x \\\\\\ \begin{cases} f(x) = 3x\\ g(x)=\cfrac{1}{3}x \end{cases}\qquad \qquad g(~~f(x)~~)=\cfrac{1}{3}[f(x)]\implies g(~~f(x)~~)=\cfrac{1}{3}(3x)$

The volume of a gas with a pressure of 1.2 atm increases from 1.0 L to 4.0 L. What is the final pressure of the gas, assuming co

salantis [7]

Answer:

(b) 0.30 atm

Step-by-step explanation:

Given data

Initial pressure= 1.2atm

Initial volume= 1.0L

Final volume= 4.0L

Final pressure= ???

Let us apply the gas formula to find the Final pressure

P1V1= P2V2

Substitute

1.2*1= x*4

Divide both sides by 4

1.2/4= x

x= 0.3atm

Hence the final pressure is 0.3 atm
