Answer:

Box X

Step-by-step explanation:

In order to find which box holds the most material, you have to find the volume of each box.

The formula for volume of a prism (or box) is [area of the base] * height. So, you can solve the problem as follows:

Step 1) Find the area of the base for box X (7 * 3). You can use any side as your base, as long as the opposite side of the shape is congruent (which in this case, it is)

Step 2) Multiply the area of your base (21) times the distance between the opposite congruent side (6). (21 * 6) = 126

Step 3) By repeating this process with box Y, you will find that the volume of box Y (10*11) = 110, which is less than the volume of box X.

Since the volume of box X is greater than that of box Y, box X can hold more material.

Consider the following expression and determine which statements are true. m+(5n)(9-p)-6-r^2
Fed [463]

Answer:

(B)The expression (5n)(9-p) is the product

(D)The expression 9-p has exactly two terms

Step-by-step explanation:

In the expression;

m+(5n)(9-p)-6-r^2

The coefficient of m is 1, therefore Option A is not true

The product of 5n and 9-p is (5n)(9-p), therefore Option B is true.

The expression 9-p has exactly two terms,9  and p.

Therefore, Options B and D are true.

PLEASEHELP!
denis-greek [22]
You factor out primes from the root, for example:
root 100
you can get 10 from it, or we'll use 5

100/5=20
20/5=4
root 4= 2
because there are 2 "5" we can bring that out of the root, there are 2 "2" so we bring that out too.
When a number is taking out of a root, the 2 exact same numbers become one. in this case, there are ONE 5 and ONE 2 outside the root. then You multiply 5 and 2 together, and you get 10

If a number is chosen at random from the set {1, 2, 3, 4, . . ., 18}, what is the probability that the number chosen is a factor
choli [55]
Looking at the set, we are given 18 elements. 17 is prime; it has only two factors: 1 and 17, since 1•17=17. So, the question is really asking what is the probability the numbers 1 or 17 is chosen. As mentioned earlier, 17 is prime, so there are two possible choices: 1 and 17.

P (probability) = possible outcomes / total outcomes

It is important to note that these events are “or” events, meaning that the probability can only be determined by choosing a 1 or a 17; you can’t randomly chose a 1 and 17 at the same time. So, the formula is:

P(A or B) = P(A) + P(B)

All this is saying is that given two possible outcomes, the probability occurs independent of each event; they don’t occur at the same time.

P(1 or 17) = P(1)/18 + P(1)/18

P(1 or 17) = 2/18

Since 17 is prime, it’s two and only factors are 1 and 17. The probability of randomly choosing a 1 or 17 is 2/18, meaning that there are 2 elements in the set out of a possible 18 elements that can be randomly chosen.

2/18 simplifies to 1/9


So, your answer is 1/9
