Outline the steps for taking cross sections of a rectangular prism.

Mathematics
1 answer:
fgiga [73]3 years ago
7 0

Answer:

  • find a suitable cutting tool
  • cut the prism on the plane of interest

Step-by-step explanation:

A cross section is the intersection of a cut plane with the object of interest. In a classroom setting, we often try to do the cross sectioning mentally or with diagrams, rather than physically cutting anything. Sometimes, there is no substitute for actually performing the cut to see what the cross section looks like.

For certain samples that don't take kindly to cutting, we sometimes encase them in a block of material that helps them hold their shape during the process. Sometimes the "cutting" is performed by grinding away the portion of the material on one side of the cut plane.

Answer:

The graph shows the proportional relationship between total spent and number of months

A proportional relationship has the following characteristics

In a proportional relationship, the ratio of the 'x' and 'y' values is constant for all data pairs

The rate of change between the two quantities in a proportional relationship is constant

The graph of a directly proportional relationship passes through the origin

Therefore, the significance of the given points are;

1. The point (1, 5) is the first point that indicates the proportional relationship between the 'x' and 'y' values and from which the the constant of proportionality, k = y/x can be found as follows;

When x = 1 month, and y = $ 5, for the proportional relationship, we have;

k = y/x = $ 5/(1 month) = 5 $/month

2. The point (0, 0) is the starting point of the relationship and indicates that the graph of the 'x', and 'y', values passes through the origin and the relationship between the ;x;, and ;y;, values is a directly proportional relationship

3. The point (4, 20) which is the limiting point or the point with the highest 'y' value gives;

1) The total payment after 5 months

2) it can be used to draw the graph of the straight line relationship

3) Provides verification of the constant of proportionality

Micah recorded the amount of time his mom and dad spend reading bedtime stories. He plotted the data in the box plot below.
katrin [286]

Answer:

The lengths of time that his mom reads are typically longer and have more variability than the lengths of time that his dad reads.

Step-by-step explanation:

The Mom's plot is longer in ranges, therefore, she would have more variability than the dad.

△ABC is similar to △XYZ. Also, side AB measures 6 cm, side BC measures 18 cm, and side XY measures 12 cm.
Serggg [28]

Answer:

value of sides YZ is 36 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar triangles states that the length of the corresponding sides are in proportion.

Given that: ΔABC is similar to ΔXYZ

then;

Corresponding sides are in proportion i.e

\frac{AB}{XY}=\frac{BC}{YZ}=\frac{AC}{XZ}    .....[1]

As per the statement:

side AB = 6 cm, side BC =18 cm and side XY = 12 cm.

Substitute these in [1] to solve for side YZ;

\frac{6}{12}= \frac{18}{YZ}

or

\frac{1}{2} = \frac{18}{YZ}

By cross multiply we have;

YZ = 36 cm

Therefore, the value of sides YZ is 36 cm
