Can someone help me on this ? its Algebra 1 on exponents
Svetradugi [14.3K]
The volume of a rectangular prism is its length times width times height, or algebraically, V=lwh. You may be used to computing volume with numbers, but remember, a variable is a stand-in for a number. So you can solve this in the same way. Substitute l=x, w= \frac{x}{2},h= \frac{x}{3} into the formula for volume. You get (x)( \frac{x}{2})( \frac{x}{3} ), and you multiply these factors together. As you would with ordinary fractions, multiply the numerators and denominators across. You get \frac{(x)(x)(x)}{(1)(2)(3)} =  \frac{x^3}{6}. It seems that the book wants you to simplify by bringing the 6 up to the denominator. Recall the rule x^{-n}= \frac{1}{x^n}, if n is non-negative. The opposite applies so that \frac{1}{6} = 6^{-1}. For your final answer, you write 6^{-1}x^3. This corresponds to answer choice B.

The hyperbolic orbit of a comet is represented on a coordinate plane with center at (0, 4). One branch has a vertex at (0, 10) a
Anuta_ua [19.1K]

Remember that

If the given coordinates of the vertices and foci have the form (0,10) and (0,14)

then

the transverse axis is the y-axis

so

the equation is of the form

(y-k)^2/a^2-(x-h)^2/b^2=1

In this problem

center (h,k) is equal to (0,4)

(0,a-k)) is equal to (0,10)

a=10-4=6

(0,c-k) is equal to (0,14)

c=14-4=10

Find out the value of b

b^2=c^2-a^2

b^2=10^2-6^2

b^2=64

therefore

the equation is equal to

<h2>(y-4)^2/36-x^2/64=1</h2><h2>the answer is option A</h2>

A rectangular field is 0.3 kilometers long and 0.15 kilometers wide. What is the area of the field in square meters?
Anika [276]

Answer:

4.5 meters

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the area of a rectangle is length x width. Using this formula, you can substitute the given information and find the area:

length x width = area

0.3km x 0.15km = area

0.045km = area

Finally, you can now convert square kilometres into square meters by multiplying by 100:

0.045 x 100 = 4.5 meters
