Answer:

Option 1 - Triangle

Step-by-step explanation:

Given :  A cone is sliced so the cross section is parallel to its base.

To find : What is the shape of the cross section?

Solution :

When a cone is cut in such a way that the cross-section is perpendicular to the base and it passes through the vertex.

The shape of cross section formed is a triangle.

Refer the attached figure below.

The figure thus formed after cutting is in the shape of a triangle.

Therefore, Option 1 is correct.

Round 5.80405471744 to the nearest thousandth.
denis-greek [22]

Answer:

5.804

Step-by-step explanation:

5.804

  ^ ^ ^

After the thousands place is a 0, so the number for the thousands place would stay the same.  If it were higher than 4, it would round to 5.805 (but it isnt so it's 5.804)

tens, hundreds, thousands

Gina has a bag containing Red, Green, Blue, Yellow, and Brown M&Ms.
victus00 [196]

Answer:

96M&M's

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Probability of picking a Red M&M = 1/2

Probability of picking a Green M&M = 1/2 of 1/2 = 1/4

Since;

Probability = number of possible outcome/total outcome

For green;

Total green(possible outcome) = 24

Probability of choosing green = 1/4

Substitute into the formula;

1/4 = 24/Total outcome

Cross multiply

Total outcome = 4×24

Total outcome = 96

Hence there are 96 M&M's altogether

I need help I have to indicate how many terms it contains then copy and simplify each expression by combining like terms
igor_vitrenko [27]

Answer:

b) −3y2−2x+1

d) −4xy+4y2−y−10

Step-by-step explanation:

b) -4x <u>+ y2</u> <em>- 9</em> <em>+ 10</em> - x + 3x<u> - 4y2</u>

<u>(i have just underlined, italic and made it bold to show the like terms)</u>

-4x - x + 3x = -2x

y2 - 4y2 = -3y2

-9 + 10 = 1

-2x - 3y2 + 1

d) 0 - 20 <u>- 5xy</u> + 4y2 + 10 - y <u>+ xy</u>

<u>(i have just underlined, italic and made it bold to show the like terms, however the '-y' and '4y2' have no like terms)</u>

0 - 20 + 10 = - 10

-5xy + xy = - 4xy

-10-4xy+4y2-y

. Solve the following quadratic equation both by factoring and by completing the square:
Anika [276]

Answer:

  x = 1 or -3/4

  factoring is easier for me

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Factoring</u>

We rewrite to ...

  4x^2 -x -3 = 0

We want factors of (4)(-3) = -12 that have a sum of -1. They are -4 and 3. Then the factorization is ...

  (4x -4)(4x +3)/4 = (x -1)(4x +3)

Solutions are values of x that make the factors zero: x = 1, x = -3/4.

__

<u>Completing the square</u>

We start by factoring the leading coefficient from the left side:

  4(x^2 -x/4) = 3

Now, we add the square of half the x-coefficient (inside parentheses):

  4(x^2 -x/4 +1/64) = 3 + 4/64

  4(x -1/8)^2 = 49/16 . . . . . . . . . write as squares

  x -1/8 = ±√(49/64) = ±7/8

  x = 1/8 ± 7/8

  x = -3/4 or +1

__

<u>Preference</u>

In this instance <em>I prefer factoring</em>, because it deals with whole numbers up until the end. It does not involve adding and subtracting fractions. On this page, it takes fewer steps.

If you're unfamiliar with math facts, such as the factors of 12, then the purely mechanical "completing the square" method may be preferable. It does not require anything other than finding half of a number and then squaring that.
