Answer:

\large \boxed{\text{2.00 in}}  

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula for the volume of a rectangular solid is  

V = lwh

\begin{array}{rcl}V & = & lwh\\187 & = & 8.5 \times 11 \times h\\& = & 93.5h\\h & = &\dfrac{187}{93.5}\\\\& = & \textbf{2.00 in}\\\end{array}\\\text{The ream is $\large \boxed{\textbf{2.00 in}}$ thick.}

Describe at least two similarities between constructing a perpendicular line through a point on a line and constructing a perpen
Sophie [7]

Two similarities between constructing a perpendicular line through a point on a line and constructing a perpendicular through a point off a line are;

  • 1. Arcs are drawn to cross the given line twice on either side relative to the point
  • 2. The perpendicular line is drawn using a straight edge by connecting the small arcs formed using the arcs from step 1, to the point on the line or off the line

Description:

1. One of the first steps is to place the compass on the point and from

point, draw arcs to intersect or cross the given line at two points.

2. The compass is placed at each of the intersection point in step 1 and

(opened a little wider when constructing from a point on the line) arcs are

drawn on one (the other side of the point off the line) side of the line with

the same opening (radius) of the compass to intersect each other.

3. From the point of intersection of the arcs in step 2, a line is drawn with a

straight edge passing through the given point.

The x-intercepts of a quadratic function are −3 and 5. What is the equation of its axis of symmetry?
Reil [10]

Answer:

x = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Remember that the axis of symmetry is exactly halfway between the x-intercepts.  Find the average of -3 and 5 to obtain this x-value:  It is:

                         -3 + 5

x - intercept = ------------  =  x = 1

What is the slope of the line
rusak2 [61]
The slope of the line is 2

The formula for finding slope using two coordinate pairs is y-y
——-
x-x
In this case, the y values are 10 and 2, and the x values are 6 and 2. If we plug these into our formula the equation is 10-2
———
6-2
10-2 is 8 and 6-2 is 4. So 8 divided by 4 would equal 2
