The area of the rectangular faces of the box are shown . What is the volume of the box

Label the 3 distinct sides of the box.  I arbitrarily chose the letters a, b and c.
Use the info about areas as follows:

ab=54 in^2
ac=90 in^2
bc=60 in^2

Here you have 3 equations in 3 unknowns (a, b and c), which is enough info to use to determine a, b and c.  Then the volume of the box is a*b*c.

Example:  bc = 90, but c = 60/b.  You could subst. 60/b for c in the 2nd and 3rd equation, which will eliminate c completely and leave you with 2 equations in 2 unknowns.

Continuing this procedure, I determined that a=9, b=6 and c=10.  Thus, the volume of the box is V = 9*6*10 = 540 cubic inches (answer)

Determine whether the equation 5(1+2m)=1/2(8+20m) has one solution, no solution, or infinitely many solutions.
hichkok12 [17]

1. Use the distributive property:

5\cdot (1+2m)=5\cdot 1+5\cdot 2m=5+10m,

\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot (8+20m)=\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 8+\dfrac{1}{2}\cdot 20m=4+10m.

Then

5+10m=4+10m.

2. Separate terms with m in left side and without m in right side:

10m-10m=4-5,\\ \\0=-1.

This expression is false for all values of x, then the equation doesn't have solutions.

Answer: no solution

PLEASEE HELP!!!!30 POINTS

Answer:

This line tells Charles that the point must lie in Quadrant 3 if r is positive or Quadrant 1 if r is negative.

The value of r is negative. Therefore, the point will lie in the opposite quadrant as the angle of rotation.

Step-by-step explanation:

With polar coordinates the first value represents the distance from the origin and the second value represents the rotation from 0. In this case the distance from the origin value is negative, which means it will be in the opposite quadrant to the angle of rotation.

(-5, −3π/4) results in the same point as (5, π/4)

A rotation of −3π/4 results in the same rotation as 5π/4

The rotation results in Quadrant 3 but because the distance value is negative the final resulting point is in Quadrant 1.
