The ratio between the volumes of two cubes is 125 to 216. what is the ratio between their respective surface areas?

1 answer:

8 0

Volume of a cube is length * width * height. Because it's a cube, all of these lengths are the same measurement so rather than doing V = l*w*h, we can do one of the measurements cubed, let's call it x.

So Volume = x³. So if we are given the volume, we can the length by doing the cube root.

∛125 = 5
∛216 = 6

Surface area of a cube = 6x². So now we plug both of these measurements into the formula.

For 5:

SA = 6(5)² = 6(25) = 150

For 6:

SA = 6(6)² = 6(36) = 216

The ratio of their surface areas is 150:216 or if you simplify it by dividing both by the GCF of 6, 25:36

Calculate the number of ways to form a set of three distinct items such that no two of the selected items are in the same row or

Eddi Din [679]

Answer:

1200

Explanation:

Order does not matter, if we said xyz order, it would still not make a difference if it was zyx or yzx hence we use the combination formula:

nCr = n! / r! * (n - r)!

where n= total number of items

r= number of items chosen at a time

Combinations are used when the order of events do not matter in calculating the outcome.

We calculate using the formula:

(30×20×12)÷3!=1200

There are therefore 1200 ways for the three distinct items to not be in same row or column

What is the vertex of a parabola having the equation y = –2(x – 5)2 + 7? Which direction does the parabola open?

Vika [28.1K]

$y = -2(x-5)^2 + 7$

That's vertex form for a parabola $y=a(x-p)^2+q$ and we read off vertex (p,q) as

Answer: Vertex (5,7)

The negative a tells us this is a downward opening parabola (upside down from the usual $y=x^2$ . I remember CUP - Concave Up Positive; here a is negative so not a cup, instead concave down. The same rule applies to second derivatives in calculus so memorize it now and use it later.

Answer: downward
