Answer:

Area is 147.74

Step-by-step explanation:

You need to recall that the equation for the area of a rectangle is:

Length * Width = area

So 16 3/5 * 8 9/10 = area

Rearrange so the whole numbers are being multiplied and the fractions are too:

We need to make the denominator same, this can be done by simply multiplying 3/5 by 2:

3/5 * 2 = 6/10

Now the two numbers can be written as 16.6 and 8.9.

Multiply both numbers by 10:

166 * 89 = 14774

Then divide this by 100 (two lots of division by 10)

14774 ÷ 1000 = 147.74

So the area of the rectangle is 147.74!

Answer:

18 bulbs for $54

Step-by-step explanation:

if we get 6 bulbs for $18

we can keep going

12 bulbs for $36

18 bulbs for $54

or we can divide 54 by 18 and get 3

then we multiply 3 by 6 and get 18 bulbs :)

Let R = [ 0 , 1 ] × [ 0 , 1 ] R=[0,1]×[0,1]. Find the volume of the region above R R and below the plane which passes through th

Bond [772]

The three vectors $\langle0,0,1\rangle$ , $\langle1,0,8\rangle$ , and $\langle0,1,9\rangle$ each terminate on the plane. We can get two vectors that lie on the plane itself (or rather, point in the same direction as vectors that do lie on the plane) by taking the vector difference of any two of these. For instance,

$\langle1,0,8\rangle-\langle0,0,1\rangle=\langle1,0,7\rangle$

$\langle0,1,9\rangle-\langle0,0,1\rangle=\langle0,1,8\rangle$

Then the cross product of these two results is normal to the plane:

$\langle1,0,7\rangle\times\langle0,1,8\rangle=\langle-7,-8,1\rangle$

Let $(x,y,z)$ be a point on the plane. Then the vector connecting $(x,y,z)$ to a known point on the plane, say (0, 0, 1), is orthogonal to the normal vector above, so that
