(brainliest)Armando found the volume of the figure below by using the steps shown. A rectangular prism with a length of 18 inche

s, width of 5 inches, and height of 8 inches. A triangular prism with a base of 18 inches and height of 6 inches. The prism has a height of 5 inches. Total Volume = Volume of rectangular prism + volume of triangular prism = 5 (8) (18) + one-half (6) (18) (8) = 720 + 432 = 1,152 cubic inches. What mistake, if any, did Armando make? Armando determined the volume correctly. Armando used the wrong formula for the total volume. Armando used the wrong dimensions for the triangular prism. Armando did not apply the order of operations correctly.

Answer:  Armando used the wrong dimensions for the triangular prism.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hi, to answer this question we have to analyze Armando’s work.

Total Volume = Volume of rectangular prism + volume of triangular prism  

Total Volume = 5 (8) (18) + one-half (6) (18) (8)  

Total Volume= 720 + 432  

Total volume = 1,152 cubic inches.

He made a mistake in the second step, where used h=8 for the triangular prism instead of h= 5 . (h=height)

The correct way to solve this is.

Total Volume = 5 (8) (18) + one-half (6) (18) (5)  

Total Volume= 720 + 270

Total volume = 990 cubic inches.

The perimeter of a rectangle is 36m. If its length is increased by 1m and the width is increased by 2m, its area will increase b
maw [93]

Answer:

  80 m^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The given information lets you write two equations involving length (x) and width (y).

  • 2(x +y) = 36 . . . . the perimeter is 36 m
  • (x+1)(y+2) -xy = 30 . . . . increasing the length and width increases area

The second of these equations simplifies to another linear equation, giving a system of linear equations easily solved.

  xy +y +2x + 2 -xy = 30

  2x +y = 28 . . . . . . . subtract 2

Dividing the first equation by 2 gives

  x +y = 18

and subtracting this from the above equation gives ...

  (2x +y) -(x +y) = 28 -18

  x = 10

Then

  y = 18 -10 = 8

The area of the original rectangle is xy = 10·8 = 80 m^2.

Find the value of x and y so that both proportions will be correct:
andrew11 [14]

The values of x and y are 0.2 and 0.4 respectively.

<em><u>Explanation</u></em>

The given proportions are.....

x: 1\frac{2}{3}=y: 3\frac{1}{3} and y:1.5=0.2:0.75

From the second proportion, we will get....

y:1.5=0.2:0.75\\ \\ \frac{y}{1.5}=\frac{0.2}{0.75} \\ \\ 0.75y=0.2*1.5\\ \\ 0.75y=0.3\\ \\ y=\frac{0.3}{0.75}=0.4

Now, we will plug this y=0.4 into the first proportion. So we will get....

x: 1\frac{2}{3}=y: 3\frac{1}{3}\\ \\ x: \frac{5}{3}=0.4:\frac{10}{3} \\ \\ \frac{x}{\frac{5}{3}}= \frac{0.4}{\frac{10}{3}}\\ \\ \frac{3x}{5}=\frac{1.2}{10}\\ \\ 30x=6\\ \\ x= \frac{6}{30}=0.2

So, the values of x and y are 0.2 and 0.4 respectively.

Paula purchase 3 dvd and 7 cds and spent between 90 and 100. Each dvd costs the same amount the price of cd is 10 select all amo
sveticcg [70]

The options aren't given, however, the range of amount spent could be calculated

Answer:

Kindly check explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Paula purchase 3 dvd and 7 cds and spent between 90 and 100. Each dvd costs the same amount the price of cd is 10 select all amounts that could be the price of the dvd

Given that :

DVD costs the same amount

Number of DVD's = 3

Cost of cds = 10

Number of cds = 7

Total cost of cd's = 10 * 7 = 70

Let the price of DVD = x

Total amount spent = 90 - 100

Lowest price of DVD :

(amount spent - price of cd) / number of dvd

(90 - 70) / 3 = 20 /3 = 6.667

Highest price :

(100 - 70) / 3 = 30 / 3 = 10

Hence the pice of each DVD will range between /

6.6666 and 10.

Hence, prices listed within the range above are possible.

A particle moves along the curve y = 5x^2 – 1 in such a way that the y value is decreasing at the rate of 2 units per second. At
Shtirlitz [24]

Answer:

The correct option is;

Increasing one fifth unit/sec

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation that gives the curve of the particle of the particle is y = 5·x² - 1

The rate of decrease of the y value dy/dt = 2 units per second

We have;

dy/dx = dy/dt × dt/dx

dy/dx = 10·x

dy/dt = 2 units/sec

dt/dx = (dy/dx)/(dy/dt)

dx/dt = dy/dt/(dy/dx) = 2 unit/sec/(10·x)

When x = 1

dx/dt = 2/(10·x) = 2 unit/sec/(10 × 1) = 1/5 unit/sec

dx/dt = 1/5 unit/sec

Therefore, x is increasing one fifth unit/sec.
