Find the approximate volume of this prism.

Mathematics
1 answer:
musickatia [10]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

62m³

Step-by-step explanation:

The question is incomplete. Find the diagram of the prism attached below.

Volume of a Prism = Base area × Height

Given height = 9m

Since the prism is a triangular based prism,

Base area = area of the equilateral triangle = 1/2bh

base of the triangle = 4m

Height can be gotten using Pythagoras theorem.

Slant side of the triangle is the hypotenuse = 4m

Adjacent = 1/2 of the base = 1/2(4)= 2m

Height = √4²-2²

Height = √16-4

Height of the triangle= √12 m

Base Area = 1/2×4×√12

Base Area = 2√12 m

Volume of the prism = 2√12 × 9

= 2×2√3×9

= 36√3 m³

= 62.2m³

Volume of the prism is approximately 62m³

Tickets to a concert cost $50 for each orchestra seat and $40 for each
Vsevolod [243]

Answer:

H. the number of orchestra seat is 900

Step-by-step explanation:

Step one:

let the number of orchestra seat be x

and balcony seat be y

cost of orchestra= $50 each

cost of balcony =$40 each

total tickets= 1500

x+y= 1500----------1

amount earned= $69000

50x+40y=69000--------2

The system of equation for the situation is

x+y= 1500----------1

50x+40y=69000--------2

from 1, x=1500-y

put this in equation 2

50(1500-y)+40y=69000

75000-50y+40y=69000

-10y=69000-75000

-10y=-6000

divide both sides by -10

y=-6000/-10

y=600

put y= 600 in equation 1

x+600= 1500

x=1500-600

x=900

It is desired to pile some logs in layers so that the top layer contains one log, the next layer contains two logs, the next lay
Hitman42 [59]

Answer:

Yes all of the logs can be used in such a grouping.

We'll have <u>19 logs</u> in the bottom row (and have 19 rows)

========================================================

Explanation:

Let n be the number of layers. Let T(n) represent how many logs there are total.

  • If you have 1 layer, then you have 1 log. So we can say that T(1) = 1.
  • If there are n = 2 layers, then we have 1 log on top of two other logs, which leads to 1+2 = 3 logs total. This shows that T(2) = 3.
  • If there are n = 3 layers, then we have 1 log on top of 2 which are on top of 3 at the very bottom. We have 1+2+3 = 6 logs total. So T(3) = 6.
  • Having n = 4 layers gives 1+2+3+4 = 10 logs. So T(4) = 10
  • Having n = 5 layers gives 1+2+3+4+5 = 15 logs. So T(5) = 15

This process continues for however long you like. The sequence 1,3,6,10,15 is the set of triangular numbers, since the logs form a triangular or pyramid shape when stacked this way. To get the nth value in the triangular number sequence, use this formula

T(n) = 0.5*n*(n+1)

---------------

For example, let's say we wanted to find how many logs there were in the fifth layer

T(n) = 0.5*n*(n+1)

T(5) = 0.5*5*(5+1)

T(5) = 15

This matches from earlier.

The purpose of bringing in a formula is to see if we can get T(n) = 190 for some integer n.

-------------------

T(n) = 0.5*n*(n+1)

190 = 0.5*n*(n+1)

190*2 = n(n+1)

380 = n^2+n

0 = n^2+n-380

n^2+n-180 = 0

Applying the quadratic formula will lead to the two solutions: n = -20 and n = 19. We ignore the negative value of n as we can't have a negative number of rows. Therefore, n = 19 is the only valid solution here.

If we wanted to stack 190 logs in this triangular pyramid fashion, then we'll need to have 19 rows. The bottom row will have 19 logs.

----------

Check:

1+2+3+4+5+6+7+8+9+10 = 55

11+12+13+14+15+16+17+18+19 = 135

55+135 = 190

Or you could say,

T(n) = 0.5*n*(n+1)

T(19) = 0.5*19*(19+1)

T(19) = 190

Either way, the answer is confirmed.

What is the multiplicative inverse of the number 7?
vagabundo [1.1K]

Answer:

1/7

Step-by-step explanation:

Another word for multiplicative inverse is reciprocal

It is the number  that when multiplied by the original number gives you one

7 * x = 1

Divide by 7

7x/7 = 1/7

x = 1/7

The multiplicative inverse of 7 is 1/7
