Which algebraic expression represents “the quotient of a number and six”? 6 + w 6w 6 – w StartFraction w Over 6 EndFraction

S_A_V [24]

Answer:

The one with the fraction is the answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

Quotient means dividing, so the answer has to have a fraction sign in it. We can't see the answer options properly, so whatever one with the fraction is the one you should choose. I think it's the third option that you wrote.

Hope this helped!

Find the dimensions of an open rectangular box with a square base that holds 2000 cubic cm and is constructed with the least bui

Vesnalui [34]

<h3>The dimensions of the given rectangular box are:</h3><h3>L = 15.874 cm , B = 15.874 cm , H = 7.8937 cm</h3>

Step-by-step explanation:

Let us assume that the dimension of the square base = S x S

Let us assume the height of the rectangular base = H

So, the total area of the open rectangular box

= Area of the base + 4 x ( Area of the adjacent faces)

= S x S + 4 ( S x H) = S² + 4 SH ..... (1)

Also, Area of the box = S x S x H = S²H

⇒ S²H = 2000

$\implies H = \frac{2000}{S^2}$

Substituting the value of H in (1), we get:

$A = S^2 + 4 SH = S^2 + 4 S(\frac{2000}{S^2}) = S^2 + (\frac{8000}{S})\\\implies A = S^2 + (\frac{8000}{S})$

Now, to minimize the area put :

$(\frac{dA}{dS} ) = 0 \implies 2S - \frac{8000}{S^2} = 0\\\implies S^3 = 4000\\\implies S = 15.874 \approx 16 cm$

Putting the value of S = 15.874 cm in the value of H , we get:

$\implies H = \frac{2000}{S^2} = \frac{2000}{(15.874)^2} = 7.8937 cm$

Hence, the dimensions of the given rectangular box are:

L = 15.874 cm

B = 15.874 cm

H = 7.8937 cm

natima [27]

Step-by-step explanation:

3/8 and 11/15

LCM = 30

3/8x4 and 11/15x2

12/30 and 22/30

22/30-12/30

=10/30

The difference is 10/30

The larger sum is 11/15
