Answer:

2667 dump truck loads

Step-by-step explanation:

To solve this exercise, we must resort to a proportion rule.

Knowing what happened in the first place, how much was needed, a direct proportion will be made with the other accident, be as follows.

Landslide                                     Dump Truck Loads

3 yd ^ 3 -------------------------------------------> 200

40 yd ^ 3 -------------------------------------------> X

X = (40 * 200) / 3

X = 2666.6, that is, for 40 cubic yards of sliding, approximately 2667 dump truck loads are needed.

How do i find the roots of this equation: f(x) = 2x5 - 9x4 + 12x3 - 12x2 + 10x - 3 = 0
Fantom [35]
The equation is <span>f(x) = 2x5 - 9x4 + 12x3 - 12x2 + 10x - 3 = 0
remark:
the sum of coefficients is = 2-9+12-12+10-3=-7+7=0, so a=1 is a zero of f
f can be written as </span>f(x) = (x-1)Q(x), and f(x) / (x-1)= Q(x)
after euclid's division
Q(x) = 2x4 - 7x3 + 5x2 - 7x +3
so for finding the other roots, making Q(x) for product of factors is a must

The cereal box shown below is a rectangular prism. Find the surface area of the cereal box.
aksik [14]

Answer:

Surface area is found:

Surface Area = 1700 cm²

Step-by-step explanation:

(The cereal box is shown in the ATTACHMENT)

The surface area of a rectangular prism can be found by added the areas of all 6 sides of the rectangular prism.

L = length = 20 cm

H = height = 30 cm

W = Width = 5 cm

<h3 /><h3>Side 1:</h3>

A(1) = L×H

A(1) = 20×30

A(1) = 600 cm²

<h3>Side 2:</h3>

As the measurements of the side at the back of side 1 has the same measurement of side 1. then:

A(2) = 600 cm²

<h3>Side 3:</h3>

A(3) = L×W

A(3) = 20×5

A(3) = 100 cm²

<h3>Side 4:</h3>

As the measurements of the side at the back of side 4 has the same measurement of side 4. then:

A(4) = 100 cm²

<h3>Side 5:</h3>

A(5) = H×W

A(5) = 30×5

A(5) = 150 cm²

<h3>Side 6:</h3>

As the measurements of the side at the back of side 5 has the same measurement of side 5. then:

A(6) = 150 cm²

<h3>Surface Area:</h3>

Adding areas of all the sides

A(1) + A(2) + A(3) +A(4) + A(5) + A(6) = 600 + 600 + 100 +100 + 150 +150

Surface Area = 1700 cm²

I’m having a lot of trouble, can someone guide me, step by step?
shutvik [7]

Answer:

Hi hopefully this helps you!

Step-by-step explanation:

To find the area of a circle you can use the formula A = πr^2

The radius of a circle is just the diameter divided by 2. In this case we know the diameter is 3, so the radius is 1.5

A = π(1.5)^2

   = 7.07

Because this is a semicircle, divide this area by 2

   = 3.53429 in^2

Add up the area of this semi circle with the area of the rectangle

A = (3.53429) + (3x4)

   = 15.53429 in^2

To find the circumference/ perimeter of a circle use this formula C = 2πR

C = 2π(1.5)

   = 9.42478 inches

Again because this is a semicircle, divide by 2

   = 9.42478 / 2

   = 4.71239 inches

To find the perimeter of this entire shape add up the circumference of the semicircle and the rectangle's sides and bottom

P = 4.71239 + 4 + 4 + 3

  = 15.71239 inches

So the final answer would be

A = 15.53 squared inches

P = 15.71 inches

Hope this helps! Best of luck in your studies <3
