Answer:

The required number of bricks is 507.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  

A) A typical brick is a rectangular prism with dimensions 4 in. x 2 in. x 8 in.

B) A typical bathtub is a rectangular prism with dimensions 60 in. x 30 in. x 18 in.

To find : Use the Fermi process to estimate the number of bricks needed to fill an empty bathtub?

Solution :

The Fermi process means having  a guess  or give an approximation to the answer.

We have given,

The dimension of the brick,

l=4 in., b = 2 in., h=8 in.

The volume of the brick is

V=l\times b\times h

V=4\times 2\times 8

V_b=64 in^3

The dimension of the bathtub,

L=60 in., B = 30 in., H=18 in.

The volume of the bathtub is

V=L\times B\times H

V=60\times 30\times 18

V_B=32400 in^3

Number of bricks is

n=\frac{V_B}{V_b}

n=\frac{32400}{64}

n=506.25

Approximately the required number of bricks is 507.

5+(−4)+(−7)+2 jijujuijuijuijujijuijuijuijiji
Maurinko [17]

Combine the terms. Note that: one positive and one negative sign results in a negative sign.

Simplify: 5 + (-4) = 5 - 4 = 1

1 + (-7) = 1 - 7 = -6

-6 + 2 = -4

-4 is your answer

Which of the following is true about the graph of f(x)=7^x. Select all that apply.
marishachu [46]

Answer:

D

Step-by-step explanation:

If it intersects the x axis, then y = 0. This is not possible, as you can plug in x to be 1/100000000000000000000000000000000000, or something very tiny, but it will never get 0. So, A is not a choice.

This also means B is not a choice.

If C is a choice, then it does not intercept the y axis, or x cannot be 0. This is not true, because (0, 1) is on the graph.

Finally, we have D. It intercepts the y axis (we have proven this in C). So, this is the only answer choice that is correct.
