We know that
[volume of the similar prism]=10*5*5----> 250 in³
volume original prism=16 cm³
 1 in³---------> 16.3871 cm³
X----------> 16
x=16/16.3871------> x=0.9764 in³

[volume of the similar prism]=[scale factor]³*[volume original prism]
[scale factor]³=[volume of the similar prism]/[volume original prism]
[scale factor]³=[250]/[0.9764]------> 256.05
scale factor=∛256.05-------> 6.35

<span>the dimensions of the original prism are
1 in-----> 2.54 cm

</span>length 10 in/6.35-------> 1.57 in*2.54 cm/in-----> 4 cm
<span>width 5 in/6.35---------> 0.79 in*2.54 cm/in-----> 2 cm
</span><span>height 5 in/6.35--------> 0.79 in*2.54 cm/in----> 2 cm</span>

F(x) = –2x2 + 4x + 1
ddd [48]

Answer:

x = 3/4

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = -2×2 +4x +1

f(x) = -4 +4x +1

f(x) = 4x -3

3 = 4x

3/4 = x

x= 3/4

Solve for x in the diagram below.<br> (2x + 30°<br> 40°<br> 40°<br> т
solniwko [45]

Answer:

x = 35°

Step-by-step explanation:

assuming that the straight line at the bottom of the figure is actually a straight line, that means all the angles along that straight line must add up to 180 °

i.e.

40 + (2x+30) + 40 = 180

40 + 2x+30 + 40 = 180

110 + 2x = 180  (subtract 110 from both sides)

2x = 180 - 110

2x = 70

x = 35

The length of a chord is equal to its distance to the center of the circle. A second chord in the same circle is twice as long a
Rama09 [41]

Answer:

The distance from the center of the circle to the longer chord is twice smaller than the distance from the center to the shorter chord.

Step-by-step explanation:

The length of the chord AB is the same as the distance OC from the center to the cord. Let OC=2x, then CA=x. By the Pythagorean theorem, the radius r of the circle is

r^2=OC^2+AC^2,\\ \\r^2=(2x)^2+x^2=5x^2,\\ \\r=\sqrt{5}x.

The length of the arc ED is 4x.

Consider right triangle EFO. In this triangle, EF=2x, EO=r, then the distance OF is

OF^2=OE^2-EF^2,\\ \\OF^2=5x^2-(2x)^2=x^2,\\ \\OF=x.

The distance from the center of the circle to the longer chord is twice smaller than the distance from the center to the shorter chord.

Differenciate by first principles f(x) = 4x²-4x-3
zysi [14]
f(x) = 4x^2-4x-3\\&#10;f'(x)=\lim_{h\to0}\frac{f(x+h)-f(x)}{h}\\&#10;f'(x)=\lim_{h\to0}\frac{4(x+h)^2-4(x+h)-3-(4x^2-4x-3)}{h}\\&#10;f'(x)=\lim_{h\to0}\frac{4(x^2+2hx+h^2)-4x-4h-3-4x^2+4x+3}{h}\\&#10;f'(x)=\lim_{h\to0}\frac{4x^2+8hx+4h^2-4h-4x^2}{h}\\&#10;f'(x)=\lim_{h\to0}\frac{8hx+4h^2-4h}{h}\\&#10;f'(x)=\lim_{h\to0}{8x+4h-4}\\&#10;f'(x)=8x+4\cdot0-4\\&#10;f'(x)=8x-4\\
