Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Formula for calculating the surface area of the box S = 2(LW+LH+WH) where
L is the length of the box
W is the width of the box
H is the height of the box
If the box is square based with dimension 4 * 4in, then L = W = 4in. substituting this values given into the formula we will have;
S = 2(4(4)+4H + 4H)
S = 2(16+8H)
S = 32+16H
<em>Hence, The function that represents the surface area of this box as a
</em>
<em>function of its height is S = 32+16H where H is the height of the box</em>
<em></em>
Given H = 6.5in, to evaluate the function, we will substitute h = 6.5in into the modeled equation;
S = 32+16H
S = 32+16(6.5)
S = 32+106
<em>S = 138in²</em>
<em>Hence the total surface area of the box is 138in²</em>
Answers:
- Total equation: x+y = 80
- Legs equation: 2x+4y = 248
- How many ducks? 36
- How many cows? 44
====================================================
Further explanation:
- x = number of ducks
- y = number of cows
x+y = 80 is the total equation (ie the head count equation) since we assume each animal has 1 head, and there are 80 heads total.
That equation can be solved to y = 80-x after subtracting x from both sides.
The legs equation is 2x+4y = 248 because...
- 2x = number of legs from all the ducks only
- 4y = number of legs from all the cows only
- 2x+4y = total number of legs from both types of animals combined
We're told there are 248 legs overall, so that's how we ended up with 2x+4y = 248
------------
Let's plug y = 80-x into the second equation and solve for x.
2x+4y = 248
2x+4( y ) = 248
2x+4( 80-x ) = 248
2x+320-4x = 248
-2x+320 = 248
-2x = 248-320
-2x = -72
x = -72/(-2)
x = 36
There are 36 ducks
Now use this x value to find y
y = 80-x
y = 80-36
y = 44
There are 44 cows.
------------
Check:
36 ducks + 44 cows = 80 animals total
36*2 + 44*4 = 72 + 176 = 248 legs total

Answer:
<em>Getting 21 ounces for $6.49 is a better deal!</em>
Step-by-step explanation:
4.99 / 12.4 = 0.402419...
6.49 / 21 = 0.30904...
0.4 is larger than 0.30 therefore 0.30 is less and a better deal.
Have an amazing day! ^-^
