Please can you help me with my question! I'm desperate! It's due for Monday:

1 answer:

6 0

I observed that if I remove one (or all 8) piece(s) in the corners, and only them without adjacent ones, the total area does not change.

I consider the surface area of a small square as a unit of surface.

First class of solutions:

I removed all eight corners, leaving the total area unchanged.

I removed the central cube of the top surface obtaining an increase of the surface area with four units.

I removed one cube from the middle of an edge at the top (any of the four remaining) and I arrived at a figure with ten cubes less then the original one but with the same surface area.

Question 12

The question is incomplete! Complete question along with answer and step by step explanation is provided below.

Question:

The tank for a car holds 17 gallons. The gasoline gauge shows the tank is 3/4 full. How much gas is still in the tank?

Give your answer as a whole number or as a mixed fraction reduced to lowest terms.

Answer:

$Gas \: \:left = 12 \frac{3}{4} \: \:gallons \\\\$

Step-by-step explanation:

The tank for a car holds 17 gallons.

The gasoline gauge of the car shows that the tank is 3/4 full.

We are asked to find the remaining gasoline in the tank.

$Gas \: \:left = \frac{3}{4} \times 17 \\\\Gas \: \:left = \frac{51}{4} \\\\Gas \: \:left = 12 \frac{3}{4} \: \:gallons \\\\$

Therefore, the remaining gas in the tank is $12\frac{3}{4}$ gallons.

Alternatively:

$1 - \frac{3}{4} = \frac{1}{4}$

Amount of gasoline consumed = $\frac{1}{4} \times 17 = \frac{17}{4}$

Amount of gasoline left = total - consumed

Amount of gasoline left = $17 - \frac{17}{4} = 12\frac{3}{4} \:\: gallons$

kobusy [5.1K]

What’s the items number. ? When rounding everything in front of the decimal find the place value it wants you to round then if it’s 5 or below round the the lowest whole number. If it’s behind a decimal you would do the same thing. It’s the number is higher than 5 round it up.
