Answer:
The answer to the test is 1. B 2.C 3.B 4.A and this is one is C for the answer.
Answer: Choice B) The expression (10-2x)(30-2x)x represents the volume of the box
----------------------------------------------------
----------------------------------------------------
The original width is 10 inches. The width reduces to 10-2x inches after we cut off the top two corners of the rectangle. We can think of it as taking 10 and subtracting off two copies of x like so: 10-x-x = 10-2x
Similarly, the length goes from 30 inches to 30-2x inches. This time we're taking off the top and bottom corners (focus on either side it doesn't matter).
The height of the box is x inches due to this portion being folded up.
Volume of box = (width)*(length)*(height)
Volume of box = (10-2x)(30-2x)x
Note: the units for the answer are in cubic inches which can be written as "in^3" (inches cubed).
Answer:
Yes
Step-by-step explanation:
A proportion is an equation with a ratio on each side. And when you reduce 6/8 to the lowest form, it is 3/4
1. square base area= 25 inches
2. using the slanted 6.5
=1/2base , therefore 5/2=2.5 inches
3. then use pythagoras.... c=6.5, a=2.5
c^2=a^2 + b^2
(do this urself)
4. when u find what b is... that's the height of one of the triangle
base= 2.5 (look at step 2 if u don't understand this bit)
height=b (refer to step 3)
5. then work out the area of 1 triangle using that...
6. then have (the answer u work out in step 5 ) multiply 4
this will give u the area for the all of the 4 triangles...
7. Then add together the square based area in step 1..(25)
to the 4 triangular, area faces (i.e from step 6) - the total will be ur answer for the amount of cardboard!!
p.s don't forget the units!!!
