Answer:

<u>The new height of the water is approximately 9.3 inches.</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Let's review the information given to us to answer the question correctly:

Measurements of the container:

Length = 20 inches

Width = 16 inches

Height = 12 inches

Amount of water drained from the container = 850 inches³

2. What is the new height of the water in inches?. If necessary, round to the nearest tenth.

Let's calculate the volume of the container, as follows:

Volume = Length * Width * Height

Volume = 20 * 16 * 12

Volume = 3,840 inches³

Now, let's subtract the volume of the water drained:

Volume = 3,840 - 850 = 2,990 inches³

We do know the length and the width and can calculate the value of the new height, this way:

Volume = Length * Width * Height

2,990 = 20 * 16 * Height

320 * Height = 2,990

Height = 2,990/320

<u>Height = 9.3 (rounding to the nearest tenth)</u>

Find the value of the expression if x=-7
LUCKY_DIMON [66]

Answer: -16

Step-by-step explanation:

49 would be the result of -7 squared. Due to the fact it is negative, it would cancel out to be positive.

For the numerator, 49-1 is equivalent to 48.

48/x+4

-7+4 = -3

48/-3

= -16

Which expression is equivalent to log w (x2-6)4
natka813 [3]
Log w (x^2-6)^4

Using log a b = log a + log b, with a=w and b=(x^-6)^4:
log w (x^2-6)^4 = log w + log (x^2-6)^4

Using in the second term log a^b = b log a, with a=x^2-6 and b=4
log w (x^2-6)^4 = log w + log (x^2-6)^4 =  log w + 4 log (x^2-6)

Then, the answer is:
log w (x^2-6)^4 = log w + 4 log (x^2-6)

Suppose that 16 inches of wire costs 48 cents.
padilas [110]
Let’s divide 48 by 16 to see how many cents per inch of wire. 48/16=3 so it costs 3 cents per inch of wire. now all we have to do is multiply 47 by 3, and you will get 141 cents, or $1.41.
