Enya is building a storage cupboard in the shape of a rectangular prism. The rectangular prism has a square base with side lengt

hs of 2.3 feet and a height of 3.6 feet. Use percentage to compare the amount of paint she would use to paint all but the bottom surface of the prism to the amount she would use to paint the entire prism. Round your final answer to the nearest tenth.
Enya will paint
________% of the surface area of the storage cupboard.

To answer this question you would need to find the surface area of this rectangular prism. In order to find the surface area you would find the areas of all six faces. The top and bottom faces would both be square with an area of 5.29 (2.3x 2.3)ft.². All for lateral faces would have areas of 8.28 (2.3x3.6)ft.². Adding these for faces along with the other two faces would give you a total surface area of 43.7 ft.². If you take away the bottom face which is not painted you will have a surface area that is going to be painted of 38.41 ft.². To determine the percentage of this rectangle or prism that is going to be painted, create a ratio of the amount painted to the total amount surface area. Divide these to create a decimal and then converted to a percent. 38.41/43.7=0.879 (87.9%).

<span><span>1.A triangular section of a lawn will be converted to river rock instead of grass. Maurice insists that the only way to find a missing side length is to use the Law of Cosines. Johanna exclaims that only the Law of Sines will be useful. Describe a scenario where Maurice is correct, a scenario where Johanna is correct, and a scenario where both laws are able to be used. Use complete sentences and example measurements when necessary.
</span>
The Law of Cosines is always preferable when there's a choice.  There will be two triangle angles (between 0 and 180 degrees) that share the same sine (supplementary angles) but the value of the cosine uniquely determines a triangle angle.

To find a missing side, we use the Law of Cosines when we know two sides and their included angle.   We use the Law of Sines when we know another side and all the triangle angles.  (We only need to know two of three to know all three, because they add to 180.  There are only two degrees of freedom, to answer a different question I just did.

<span>2.An archway will be constructed over a walkway. A piece of wood will need to be curved to match a parabola. Explain to Maurice how to find the equation of the parabola given the focal point and the directrix.
</span>
We'll use the standard parabola, oriented in the usual way.  In that case the directrix is a line y=k and the focus is a point (p,q).

The points (x,y) on the parabola are equidistant from the line to the point.  Since the distances are equal so are the squared distances.

The squared distance from (x,y) to the line y=k is </span>(y-k)^2
<span>
The squared distance from (x,y) to (p,q) is </span>(x-p)^2+(y-q)^2.<span>
These are equal in a parabola:

</span>
(y-k)^2 =(x-p)^2+(y-q)^2<span>

</span>y^2-2ky + k^2 =(x-p)^2+y^2-2qy + q^2

y^2-2ky + k^2 =(x-p)^2 + y^2 - 2qy+ q^2

2(q-k)y =(x-p)^2+ q^2-k^2

y = \dfrac{1}{2(q-k)} ( (x-p)^2+ q^2-k^2)

Gotta go; more later if I can.

<span>3.There are two fruit trees located at (3,0) and (−3, 0) in the backyard plan. Maurice wants to use these two fruit trees as the focal points for an elliptical flowerbed. Johanna wants to use these two fruit trees as the focal points for some hyperbolic flowerbeds. Create the location of two vertices on the y-axis. Show your work creating the equations for both the horizontal ellipse and the horizontal hyperbola. Include the graph of both equations and the focal points on the same coordinate plane.

4.A pipe needs to run from a water main, tangent to a circular fish pond. On a coordinate plane, construct the circular fishpond, the point to represent the location of the water main connection, and all other pieces needed to construct the tangent pipe. Submit your graph. You may do this by hand, using a compass and straight edge, or by using a graphing software program.

5.Two pillars have been delivered for the support of a shade structure in the backyard. They are both ten feet tall and the cross-sections​ of each pillar have the same area. Explain how you know these pillars have the same volume without knowing whether the pillars are the same shape.</span>

FIND om if LO bisects
disa [49]
First you use Pythagorean theorem to find LO is square root of 194(13^2 + 5^2)=13.9. Then use the same method to find OM (194+13^2=363, square root of 363 is 19.1) and get that OM is 19.1

The average of 4, 9, 16, 25 and x is 2x. What is the value of x? A) 4 B)6 A)9 C)9 D)12
Elodia [21]
The average of 4, 9, 16, 25 and x is 2x means that;
(4+9+16+25+x)/5=2x
Multiply both side by 5
5(54+x)/5=2x(5)
54+x=10x
Subtract x to both side
54+x-x=10x-x
54=9x
Divided 9 to both side
54/9=9x/9
x=6
Check:
Substitute x with 6
(4+9+16+25+x)/5=2x
(4+9+16+25+6)/5=2(6)
60/5=12
12=12; so x=6 which marks B as the correct answer. Have a nice day!
