Find the reciprocal
Sav [38]

Answer:

Depends on what number(s)/fraction(s) your working with.

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the reciprocal of a fraction by flipping it. The definition of "reciprocal" is simple. To find the reciprocal of any number, just calculate "1 ÷ (that number)." For a fraction, the reciprocal is just a different fraction, with the numbers "flipped" upside down (inverted).

Identify the factors of 6ab − 8a + 21b − 28. (5 points)
cupoosta [38]
Rearrange to

6ab+21b-8a-28 now factor 1st and 2nd pair of terms...

3b(2a+7)-4(2a+7)

(3b-4)(2a+7)

So it is the third one down...

Radio waves travel at the speed of light, approximately 300,000,000 m/s. Part A How much time does it take for a radio message t
jenyasd209 [6]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

First you want to understand that every time a radio wave goes 300,000,000 meters a second passes, literally what meter per second means.    of course it doesn't go that far, it goes 384,000 one way and then the same distance back, which makes 768,000.  Under a third of the distance to make 1 second, so it will be less than one second.  

You also want to understand the formula for speed.  speed = distance / time.  Whch also means, to find time you can change it to be time = distance / speed.  And hey, we have distance and speed.  768,000 / 300,000,000 = .00256, I'll leave the significant figures to you unless you need help with them.  but that's .00256 of a second.  or .00256 s

A rectangular box has a square base with an edge length of x cm and a height of h cm. The volume of the box is given by V = x2h
creativ13 [48]

It is given in the question that

A rectangular box has a square base with an edge length of x cm and a height of h cm. The volume of the box is given by

V = x^2h cm^3

And the edge length of the base is 12 cm, the edge length of the base is decreasing at a rate of 2 cm/min, the height of the box is 6 cm, and the height is increasing at a rate of 1 cm/min.

Here we differentiate V with respect to t, and we use product rule, that is

V = 2xh(dx/dt)+ x^2(dh/dt)

Substituting the given values , we will get

[tex]dV/dt = 2(12)(6)(-2)+ 12^2(1)[/tex]

dV/dt = -288+144 = -144cm^3/min

So at that moment, the volume is decreasing at the rate of

144 cm^3/min
