Answer:

Option C is correct

The wrapping paper is needed to wrap the gift box  is, 400 in²

Step-by-step explanation:

Surface area of the prism(S) is given by:

S =2(lw+wh+hl)

where, l is the length , w is the width and h is the height of the box receptively.

Given that:

A gift box is 14 inches long, 8 inches wide, and 4 inches high

⇒ l = 14 inches,  w = 8 inches and h = 4 inches

Substitute these in [1] we have;

S = 2(14 \cdot 8 + 8 \cdot 4 + 4 \cdot 14) = 2(112+32+56) = 2(200) = 400 in^2

Therefore, wrapping paper is needed to wrap the gift box  is, 400 in²

We will use the formula for finding the surface area of a rectangular prism. 

Formula = 

SA <span>= </span><span>2 </span><span>(</span><span>w</span><span>l</span><span>+</span><span>h</span><span>l</span><span>+</span><span>h</span><span>w</span><span>)</span>SA = 2 (8·14 + 4·14 + 4·8)
SA = 2 (112 + 56 + 32)
SA = 2 (200)
SA = 400

The gift box needs C) 400 in wrapping paper to wrap the gift box. <span />

What is the estimated difference of 12 9/11 - 8 13/15
tekilochka [14]

Answer:

the estimated difference is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

The estimated difference of 12 9/11 - 8 13/15 would be rounding the fractions to a whole number

12 9/11 becomes 12 11/11 which is 13

8 13/15 becomes 8 15/15 which is 9

we rounded each fraction up since each fraction was above the half way mark so the new equation is,

13 - 9 = 4

How many students were surveyed about their mode of transportation to school?
AlekseyPX

Answer:

Total number of students surveyed about their mode of transportation to school is 400.

Step-by-step explanation:

Here, given student who uses car as their mode of transport = 120 students

We have to find the total number of students who are surveyed.

Also, since complete circle represents 100% of data,

Total students who uses at least one mode of transport out of foot, bicycle, bus or car let it be x students.

Total percentage of students that uses bus, bicycle and on foot = (20 +15+35)% = 70%

Thus, percentage of students that uses car = 100 - 70 = 30%

Thus, 30 % of total students = 120

Mathematically,  30% of x = 120

Solving for x, we get,

\frac{30}{100} \times x=120

\Rightarrow x=120 \times \frac{100}{30}

\Rightarrow x=400

Thus, total number of students surveyed about their mode of transportation to school is 400.

-6x+6y=6<br> -6x+3y=-12<br> How do you solve this problem?
sergij07 [2.7K]

Answer:

That's called system of equations. it is like adding and subtracting.

Step-by-step explanation:

first you want to find x or y. i will choose x. in order to do that you need to put one, ill do the first one but you can do first or second, and change it to negative (-6x+6y=6) or -(-6x+6y=6), changing it to 6x - 6y = -6. then the two x's will be cancled since 6-6 is 0. now you add 6y and 3y, and 6 with -12. get your answer, and do the same thing to y, too. sorry if its a bit confusing, took me a while to learn it too. this is highschool stuff so thats why you will although im im middle too!
