never [62]3 years ago

5 0

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

The leading coefficient belongs to the term with the largest exponent

Given

5 $x^{4}$ - 7x³ + 2x + 1 ← in standard form

The leading term is 5 $x^{4}$ ← with leading coefficient 5

How much wrapping is needed for a package that is shaped like a cube<br> 16 in. on each edge?

PtichkaEL [24]

Answer:

1536 in^2

Step-by-step explanation:

This is basically asking for the surface area so knowing that is a cube all the sides are equal so one side would be 16(16) which is 256 in ^2. The knowing that there is 6 sides you would multiply it by 6 which is 256(6)= 1536^2

The pentagonal prism has a perpendicular distance of 14 units between the bases. The volume of the prism is 840 cubic units. Wha

Leno4ka [110]

Answer:

Option 4. Perimeter = 30 units

Step-by-step explanation:

Since the volume of a pentagonal prism is 840 cubic units.

Perpendicular distance between the bases = 14 units

We know volume of a pentagonal prism = Area of base × distance between the bases

840 = Area × 14

Area = 840/14 = 60 square units

Now area of a pentagon

$A=\frac{a^{2}}{4}\times\sqrt{5(5+2\sqrt{5})}$

$1.72a^{2}=60$

$a^{2}=\frac{60}{1.72}=34.90$

$a=\sqrt{34.9}=5.91$

Therefore perimeter of the pentagon = 5×a = 5×5.91 = 29.54 ≈ 30 units
