A two gallon container had all of its dimensions tripled. How many gallons does the new container hold?

Mathematics
1 answer:
Vaselesa [24]4 years ago
4 0

Answer:

8

Step-by-step explanation:

In this situation if the two gallon container will have all of its dimensions tripled, then that means the the volume of the container will also get tripled.

When all the dimensions of a shape are changed, the volume will then also change accordingly.

Since the original container held 2 gallons, we will then solve for the value by simply raising 2 to the power of 3.

2³ = 8

Now why did we raise the number of gallons by three instead of multiplying it directly by 3?

We did that, because we need to consider that the entire container had all of its dimensions tripled. When a shapes dimensions are all increased, this means that it will grow exponentially.

Yard to square yard
example: 1yard*1 = 1square yard so 6*6=36 square yards.   7*7=42
36*2.90=104.40
42*2.90=121.8
104.40+121.8=$226.20

. How can you know if 2 shapes are congruent? Draw an example of 2 congruent triangles and label how you know.
ValentinkaMS [17]

Triangle ABC and triangle DEF are congruent by the SAS Congruence Postulate

<h3>What are congruent triangles?</h3>

Two triangles are said to be congruent if they have the same shape and their corresponding sides are also congruent.

We can say that two triangles are congruent using these 5 rules:

1: SSS or the side, side, side rule, that means that we have two triangles with all three sides equal.

2. SAS or side, angle, side states that in the two triangles, two sides and the included angle are equal.

3. ASA or angle, side, angle states that in two triangles, the two angles and the included side are equal.

4. AAS or angle, angle, side states that we have two triangles where two angles and the non-included side are equal.

5. HL or the Hypotenuse Leg rule states that, if the hypotenuse and one leg of one right-angled triangle are equal to the corresponding hypotenuse and leg of another right-angled triangle, then the two triangles are congruent.

Two triangles are said to be congruent if they have the same shape and their corresponding sides are also congruent.

Example:-From the diagram, given that:

AB = DE, BC = EF and ∠B = ∠E

Triangle ABC and triangle DEF are congruent by the SAS Congruence Postulate

Which of the following graphs best represents f(x) = 3 sin 4x + 2?
Lesechka [4]
The graph for
f(x) = sin x
is a sinusoidal graph with the origin as the middle point and the value increases up to the maximum point before going down crossing the x-axis and reaching the minimum point before increasing again until it crosses the x-axis. The graph continues as a wave on both sides indefinitely.
f(x) = 3 sin 4x
has an amplitude of 3 or the highest point is 3 and a period of
Period = 2π/4 = π/2
f(x) = 3 sin 4x + 2
the graph is shifted 2 points upward.

What is the solution of the matrix equation?
katrin [286]

Hello from MrBillDoesMath!

Answer:

The first choice ( -12, 20)



Discussion:

Using matrix multiplication we find the equations:


1x  + 1y = 8                     (A)

2x  + 3y = 36                   (B)


Next, compute

  2(A) - B  =>

         (2x + 2y) - (2x + 3y) = 2*8 - 36    =>

          (2x - 2x) + ( 2y-3y) = 16 - 36 =>

          -y = -20  =>

         y = 20


Substituting this y value in (A) gives

         x + 20 = 8 =>

         x = 8 - 20 =>

        x = -12


The answer is the first choice ( -12, 20)


Thank you,

MrB
