Answer:

380 square inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1

We find the Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism

The Rectangular Prism has the dimensions of Length × Width × Height = 8 inches by 9 inches by 10 inches

Surface Area of a Rectangular Prism = 2(WL+ HL + HW)

Where W = Width = 9 inches

L = Length = 8 inches

H = Height = 10 inches

Surface Area of the Rectangular Prism = 2(9 × 8 + 10 × 8 + 9 × 10)

= 2(72 + 80 + 90)

= 2(242)

= 484 square inches.

Step 2

Find the area of the Rectangular shaped wrapping paper

The wrapping paper has dimensions :

2 feet by 3 feet

We have to convert to inches first

1 foot = 12 inches

2 feet = 2 × 12 inches = 24 inches

3 feet = 3 × 12 inches = 36 inches

Area of the Rectangular shaped wrapping paper = Length × Width

= 24 inches × 36 inches

= 864 square inches

Step 3

We calculate the amount of square inches of wrapping paper left.

The Amount left over = Area of Rectangular wrapping paper - Area of Rectangular prism

= 864 square inches - 484 square inches

= 380 square inches.

Therefore, the square inches of wrapping paper left over is 380 square inches.

Show all work to identify the asymptotes and zero of the faction f(x) = 4x/x^2 - 16.
Reptile [31]

Answer:

  • asymptotes: x = -4, x = 4
  • zeros: x = 0

Step-by-step explanation:

The vertical asymptotes of the rational expression are the places where the denominator is zero:

  x^2 -16 = 0

  (x -4)(x +4) = 0 . . . . . true for x=4, x=-4

  x = 4, x = -4 are the equations of the vertical asymptotes

__

The zeros of a rational expression are the places where the numerator is zero:

  4x = 0

  x = 0 . . . . . . divide by 4

How do you solve these?
Murrr4er [49]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The first and only rule really is to factor these down to their primes and then apply a very simple rule

For every prime, take out 1 prime for every prime under the root sign that equals the index. The rest are thrown away.

That's very wordy. Let's try and see what it means with an example

Take sqrt(27) The index is 1/2 (square root) That means we need two threes in order to apply the rule.

sqrt(27) = sqrt(3 * 3 * 3 ) For every two primes take out 1 and throw one away.

sqrt(27) = 3 sqrt(3) You can't take out that 3rd 3.

64 = 2 * 2 *2 *2 *2 * 2

4th root 64 =  <u>2*2*2 </u><u>*2</u><u> </u>* 2 *2

for every 4th root, you get to take 1 out and throw three away.

4th root 64 = 2 fourth root (2*2)

4th root 64 = 2 fourth root (4)

- 189 = -  <u>3 * 3 * </u><u>3</u> * 7

cuberoot (- 189) = For every 3 roots, you get to pull 1 out and throw the other two away.

3 cube (- 7) is your answer.

72 = 2 * 2 * 2 * 3 * 3

cube root (72) = 2 cube root(9) You don't have enough threes to do any more than what is done.
