The answer is D)6x2 square units.

A surface area of a cube is a sum of its sides' areas. A side of the cube is a square, and there are total 6 sides of the cube. Also, an area of the side of the cube is the area of the square, which can be expressed as a², where a is the length of the side. Therefore, the surface area (SA) of the cube is:
SA = 6*a² = 6a²

If side length is x, that means that a = x units.
After replacing it in the formula, you will have:
SA = 6a² = 6x² square units

Find the coordinates of the third vertex that completes the construction of a right triangle on the coordinate plane.

Neko [114]

Answer:

(7,a) Where a ∈ R - {7}

OR

(-2,a) where a ∈ R - {-2}

Step-by-step explanation:

The coordinates of the given line from the right to the left are:

(7,1) and (-2,1)

So, to make a right triangle, we need to make a right angle or by another words, we need to a make a perpendicular line to the given line (i.e: a vertical line parallel to the y-axis at one of the given points)

So, the third vertex must be on the line x=7 or x=-2

So, the coordinates of the third vertex is:

(7,a) Where a ∈ R - {7}

OR

(-2,a) where a ∈ R - {-2}

Dan wants to grow new grass in his yard. The yard is 12 feet by 20 feet. 1 package of grass seed will cover 50 square feet. Dete

ozzi

Find square footage of his yard
assuming is is roughtly a rectangle
area of rectangle=length times width
length=20ft
width=12 ft

area=length times width=20 times 12= 240 square feet

how many packages?
1 pack times x is at least 240
1 pack times x>240
50 times x>240
divide both sides by 50
x>4.8
you can't buy 0.8 pack, so round up
5 packs needed

the population of cities A and B are 3.8 x 10^5 and 2,160,000 , respectively . the population of city C is twice the population

erma4kov [3.2K]

The answer is 4, 320, 000

explanation: the problem is asking what the population of city c is, and to do that you need to multiply city b times 2. therefore you do not need the population of city a, it is just there to confuse you

Vavilen inflated a huge balloon in 19 minutes. Then he poked a hole in the balloon so that it slowly leaked air out until it was

kaheart [24]

Considering balloon to be an spherical object

Volume of sphere = $\frac{4}{3}\pi r^3$ , where r is the radius of sphere.

After 19 minutes ,If radius of balloon changes from r to R, the Volume changes from V to V'.

V'= $\frac{4}{3}\pi R^3$ ,

As given,rate at which the air leaked out of the balloon (in liters of air per minute) was half of the rate at which Vavilen inflated the balloon.

Also, $\frac{dR}{dt}=2 \times \frac{dr}{dt}$

Now, again the radius changes from R to r.So, Volume changes from V' to Back to V.

Time taken by the balloon to deflate = 38 minutes

But there is no relation between time and volume of Balloon.

So, we can't predict at which rate balloon is deflating or inflating.Apart from the statement given in Question: $\frac{dR}{dt}=2 \times \frac{dr}{dt}$
