Answer:

64

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of a cube is:

V = s³

When s = 8 in:

V = (8 in)³ = 512 in³

When s is doubled (s = 16 in):

V = (16 in)³ = 4096 in³

Now we can write a proportion:

8 mugs / 512 in³ = x mugs / 4096 in³

x = 64

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The maximum number of mugs that the larger box can hold is:

                                     64

<h2>Step-by-step explanation:</h2>

The edge length of box is:  8 inches.

This means that the volume of box is: 8×8×8=512 cubic inches.

Also, the number of mugs a box of edge length 8 in. can hold is: 8

Hence, volume of 1 mug= Volume of box/Number of mugs

Volume of 1 mug= 512/8=64 cubic inches

Now, if the dimension of the box is doubled.

This means that the Volume of new box= 8×Volume of old box

Volume of new  box=8×512=4096 cubic inches

Let n be the number of mugs that the new box can hold.

Volume of new box=n×Volume of  1 mug

⇒   4096=n×64

⇒   n=4096/64

⇒  n=64

               Hence, the answer is:

                            64

Fred the owl is looking down at a 67° angle from the top of a tree that is 15 ft tall, when he spots a bird on the ground. How f
guapka [62]

Answer:

Fred     C. 16.30 ft

Gary     B. 169.67 m

Step-by-step explanation:

Fred the owl...

Always <u>draw a diagram first</u> (see diagram below). We assume trees are perpendicular (at 90°) to the ground. The situation forms a right-angle triangle.

We need to <u>find "x"</u>, which is the direct distance between the owl and the bird. "x" is also the hypotenuse, which is the longest side in a right-angle triangle. Since we know a side and an angle, we can find the hypotenuse using primary trigonometry ratios.

∠B will be the angle of reference (the angle we are "talking" about). The side we know is opposite to ∠B (15ft). We know it's opposite because it's not touching the angle. The side we need to find is the hypotenuse.

<u>Use the trig. ratio sine</u> because it has opposite and hypotenuse in it. The general formula is:

sinθ = opp/hyp

θ means the angle, and we know it is 67°.

Replace all the information you know:

sinB = opp/hyp

sin67° = (15ft) / x     Isolate "x". Rearrange the equation.

xsin67° = (15ft)         Divide both sides by sin67°

x = (15ft) / sin67°

x = 16.295... ft   Exact answer in decimals

x ≈ 16.30 ft     Rounded to nearest hundredth

Therefore Fred the owl is 16.30 feet from the bird.

Gary spots a monkey...

Draw a diagram first (see below). G is Gary, M is the monkey, T is the bottom of the Sears Tower. We need to <u>find "x"</u>, which is the distance between the monkey and the bottom of the tower.

The angle of reference is M, which is 69°. We need to find the adjacent side and we know the opposite side. <u>The trig. ratio that has adjacent and opposite is tangent.</u>

tanθ = opp/adj

Replace all the information you know:

tanM = opp/adj

tan69° = (442m) / x    Rearrange the formula to isolate "x"

xtan69° = 442m         Divide both sides by tan69°

x = 442m / tan69°      Solve by dividing

x = 169.6679.... m    Exact decimal answer

x ≈ 169.67m            Rounded to the nearest hundredth

Therefore the monkey is 169.67 metres from the tower.

Remember all the trig. ratios using the acronym SohCahToa.

o = opposite side

a = adjacent side

h = hypotenuse side

S = sine, sin for short

C = cosine, cos for short

T = tangent, tan for short

The operation is always dividing the first side in the acronym by the second side.

sinθ = opp/hyp

cosθ = adj/hyp

tanθ = opp/adj

Multiply the following polynomials, then place the answer in the proper location on the grid. Write the answer in descending pow
marshall27 [118]
The easiest method of multiplying polynomials, in my experience, is the FOIL method. Honestly, I couldn't tell you what the letters stand for anymore, but I definitely remember how to do it. It's just distribution. 
(6x+1)(5x+8)
Multiply the 6x by 5x and 8, then the 1 by 5x and 8:
30x²+48x+5x+8
Then combine like terms:
30x²+53x+8

How many 2-digit numbers are multiples of either 5 or 7?
Svet_ta [14]

Answer:

46

Step-by-step explanation:

he count of numbers from 1 to n that are divisible by k is integer part of (n/k).

So the numbers from 1 to 99 divisible by 3 is int(99/3) = 33

Those divisible by 5: int(99/5) = 19

From the sum of those two, subtract those divisible by 15 = int(99/15) = 6

That gives you 33+19-6 = 46.

Now subtract the 1 digit numbers: 3, 5, 6, 9, or four of them

46 - 4 = 42 is the answer.
