Desi is looking at his calculator, which is shaped like a rectangular prism, and estimates it is about 3 in. wide, 4 in. tall, a

nd 12 in. thick. He wonders how many of these calculators he could fit in the trunk of his car, which is also roughly shaped like a rectangular prism, 4 ft wide, 3 ft deep, and 2 ft tall. His reasoning, shown here, contains an error.
The calculator has a volume of about 60 in³, or about 6×101 in³.
The trunk of his car has a volume of about 41,472 in³, or about 4×104 in³.
4×1046×101=23×103 , so 667 calculators would fit in the trunk of his car.
What is Desi's error?

The value 41,472 should have been rounded to 4×105 .

The volume of the car's trunk is not about 41,472 in³.

The value 60 should have been rounded to 6×100 .

The volume of the calculator is not about 60 in³.

We know that 1 ft = 12 in.
The dimensions of the trunk of a car:
4 ft = 48 in wide, 3 ft = 36 in deep,  2 ft = 24 in tall.
V = 48 * 36 * 24 = 41,472 in³
41,472 in³ ≈ 4 * 10^4 in³
And the volume of the calculator:
V ( calc. ) = 3 * 4 * 12 = 144 in³
Answer:
Desi`s error is D ) The volume of the calculator is not about 60 in³.

100 POINTS!!! VERY URGENT
Marta_Voda [28]

Answer:

<u>D) (f o g)(x) = 10x² - 60x + 93</u>

Step-by-step explanation:

f(x) = 10x² + 3

g(x) = x - 3

⇒ (f o g)(x)

⇒ f(x - 3)

⇒ f(x - 3) = 10(x - 3)² + 3

⇒ f(x - 3) = 10(x² - 6x + 9) + 3

⇒ f(x - 3) = 10x² - 60x + 90 + 3

⇒ <u>(f o g)(x) = 10x² - 60x + 93</u>

16x² +8-7x-3x2 - 13x
liq [111]

Answer:

13x^{2}-20x+8

Step-by-step explanation:

Step 1: rearrange the equation

16x^2 - 3x^2 - 7x - 13x +8

Step 2: solve the equation

16x^2 - 3x^2 = 13x^2

-7x - 13x = -20x

(the +8 will stay the same)

so when we put it all together it gives us

13x^2 - 20x + 8
