For this case, the first thing to do is to model the rectangular sandbox as a rectangular prism.

The volume of the prism is given by:

V = w * l * h

Where,

  • <em>w: width </em>
  • <em>l: length </em>
  • <em>h: height </em>

Therefore, replacing values we have:

V = 6 * 5 * 1.2\\V = 36 ft ^ 3

We observed that:

36 ft ^ 3> 20 ft ^ 3

Therefore, the sandbox is not completely filled.

Answer:

the sandbox will hold 36 ft ^ 3 of sand

Jodi purchase is not enough sand to fill the sandbox to the top.

36 ft ^ 3> 20 ft ^ 3

there are 49 dogs signed up for the dog show. there are 36 more small dogs than large dogs. how many small dogs are signed up fo
pogonyaev
Okay, so total dogs are 49.
So we know if x=large dogs and y=small dogs, then x+y=49.
Next we are told that there are 36 MORE small dogs than large dogs. We can take that more meaning addition, and x being our value for large dogs. So y=x+36.
After that we now know what value we can plug in for y. So x+x+36=49.
We can then simplify it to 2x+36=49.
Subtracting the 36 from both sides, leaves you with 2x=13.
Followed by dividing both sides by 2, gives you x=6.5. Or 6.5 large dogs.
Now we can plug this into our formula for the small dogs (y=x+36) to give us y=6.5+36, which simplifies to y=42.5. Or 42.5 small dogs. Which is our answer.
We can double check it by adding the small and large dogs together, 6.5+42.5, which gives us 49, our total entries.

Decide whether or not the ordered pair is a solution of the equation x + y=13;(6,7)
DaniilM [7]

Answer:

yes (6,7) is a solution.

Step-by-step explanation:

(6,7) is an ordered pair, see it like (x,y). so

x=6

y=7

substitute the variable with the values.

x+y=13

6+7=13

13=13

this is a true statement.

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

An isosceles triangle needs to have 2 congruent sides to be considered a isosceles triangle. To find the length of AB use Pythagorean theorem :

a^2+b^2=c^2

substitute the triangle's lengths which are given and you get:

3^2 + 3 ^2= c^2

simplify and you get

c= √18

Repeat for AC and you get the same thing: √18.

AB=AC=√18. The triangle is an isosceles triangle because you have 2 congruent sides.
