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.

Answer:

B

Step-by-step explanation:

We know that it costs 37 cents to mail a letter that weighs 1 oz or less. This would mean that for x ≤ 1, P(x) should equal 37. Already, we can eliminate A and D.

We also know that it costs an additional 26 cents for at most another ounce added to the original 1 ounce. This means that for 1 < x ≤ 2, P(x) = 26 + 37 = 63. This is shown by B.

Thus, the answer is B.

daser333 [38]
B, D, and E
The absolute value of -37 is 37.
The absolute value of 37 is also 37.
When you distribute the negative in the parenthesis the -37 becomes positive.

The attic shown is a triangular prism. Insulation will be placed inside the walls, not including the floor. Find the surface are
maria [59]

Answer:

1,125\ ft^{2}

Step-by-step explanation:

we know that

The surface area of the triangular prism that will be covered with insulation is equal to the area of the two triangular faces plus the two lateral rectangular faces

so

SA=2[\frac{1}{2}(15)(15)]+2[(30)(15)]= 1,125\ ft^{2}
