Step 1
find the a<span>rea of the first cross section

area1=b1*h/2
b1=8 m
h=10 m
area1=6*10/2------> 30 m</span>²

step 2
find the area of the second cross section

area 2=b2*h/2
b2=12 m
h=10 m
area1=12*10/2------> 60 m²

step 3
 find <span>the difference in the areas of the cross sections
</span>difference=60-30------> 30 m²

the answer is
30 m²

What is a simpler form of the radical expression?<br><br> SOMEONE PLEASE HELP!!
Brilliant_brown [7]

Answer:

Choice B

Step-by-step explanation:

Given radical expression:

\sqrt[4]{1296 {x}^{16}  {y}^{12} }

To Find:

The Simpler form of this expression

Soln:

=  \sqrt[4]{1296 {x}^{16}  {y}^{12} }

We could re-write the given expression, according to the law of exponents:

=  \tt \sqrt[4]{(6x {}^{4}y {}^{3})  {}^{4}  }

Now we need to bring terms out of the radical as:

\tt =   | 6x { }^{4} y {}^{3}  |

Bring out 6x^4 from the absolute & put y^3 only in it:

\tt = 6x {}^{4}  |y {}^{3} |

Choice B is accurate.

If sec theta = - √30 / 3, find cos theta.<br> if sin(-theta) = -0.97, find cos (π/2 - theta).
Cloud [144]

Step-by-step explanation:

\cos \theta  =  \frac{1}{ \sec\theta }  =  -  \frac{3}{ \sqrt{30} }  =  -  \frac{3 \sqrt{30} }{30}   =  -  \frac{ \sqrt{30} }{10}

\cos( \frac{\pi}{2} -  \theta )=  \cos \frac{\pi}{2}  \cos \theta  +   \sin \frac{\pi}{2}  \sin \theta

Note that

\sin( - \theta) =  -  \sin \theta

\cos \frac{\pi}{2}  = 0 \:  \:  \:  \:  \:  \sin \frac{\pi}{2}  = 1

Therefore,

\cos( \frac{\pi}{2} -  \theta )  = 0.97

Write an equation in point slope form for a line that includes the origin and (9,-3)
aivan3 [116]
So we are given two points that the line crosses, the origin and (9, -3), we can calculate the slope m of the line with these data, dividing the y segment by the x segment:
m = (-3 - 0)/(9 - 0) = -3/9
m = -1/3
then we can use the point slope line equation to find the line equation, lets use the point origin (0,0) to do so:
y - y1 = m(x - x1), where x1, y1 are the coordinates of a point that the line crosses:
y - 0 = (-1/3)(x - 0)
y = <span>(-1/3)x
so this is the equation of the line, slope  -1/3 and y intercept 0</span>
