1. The rectangular prism is a right prism with rectangular bases (check the picture)
2. It has 8 vertices, so we are looking for 3d figures with 4 vertices.
3. A face can have at least 3 vertices, and the 4th must be outside of the plane determined by the first 3 vertices. This makes 4 vertices in total.
4. The 3d figure described in step 3 is a pyramid.
Answer: 60
Step-by-step explanation:
Let the side lengths of the rectangular pan be m and n. It follows that (m-2) (n-2)=
So, since haf of the brownie pieces are in the interior. This gives 2 (m-2) (n-2) =mn
mn- 2m - 2n- 4 = 0
Then Adding 8 to both sides and applying, we obtain (m-2) (n-2) =8
Since now, m and n are both positive, we obtain (m,n) = (5,12), (6,8) (up to ordering). By inspection, 5. 12 = 60
which maximizes the number of brownies in total which is the greatest number.
Hope that helped! =)
Answer:
Coefficient of Performance
x = 30
The distributive property says that we need to multiply what's in the brackets by 1/2 (so 1/2*x and 1/2*6) to get the equation 1/2x + 3 = 18.
Then we need to subtract our constant, 3, from boths sides to get 1/2x = 15.
Multiply both sides by two to isolate x and you get x = 30.
Hope this helps! :)
