Answer: 9</h3>
===================================================
Explanation:
The area of the parallelogram is equal to the base times height. The formula to use is A = b*h. The height and base are always perpendicular to one another.
The base is some unknown variable b. Multiply the base by the height 15 to get 15*b which is equal to the area 135
Therefore, 15*b = 135
Divide both sides by 15 and we isolate b
15b = 135
15b/15 = 135/15
b = 9
So the base is 9
Check:
area = base*height = 9*15 = 135
so the answer is confirmed
side note: we never use the value 17 at all. It is likely put in there as a distraction.
Answer:
A. The ordered pair (5, 3.5) represents 5 lbs. of strawberries cost $3.50.
B. The cost per pound of strawberries is shown at (1, 0.7).
C. The relationship shown in the graph is a direct variation because as the pounds of strawberries increase, the cost also increases.
Explanation:
A. The coordinate is in (x,y). The x-axis represents the pound of strawberries and the y-axis represents the cost of the strawberries.
B. The cost for one pound of strawberries can be calculated to find the exact value of y (cost) when x is 1. The graph shows 5 lbs. of strawberries cost $3.50 so divide $3.50 by 5 lbs. to find the cost per pound of strawberries. 3.5 ÷ 5 = 0.7. On the graph, the cost for one pound of strawberries is at (1, 0.7)
C. A direct variation in a graph is shown when both x and y increase or decrease together. In this case, as the pounds of strawberries increase, the cost of the strawberries also increases.
Answer:
6283 in³
Step-by-step explanation:
The largest sphere that can fit into the cardboard box must have its diameter, d equal to the length, L of the cardboard box.
Since the cardboard box is in the shape of a cube, its volume V = L³
So, L = ∛V
Since V = 12000 in³,
L = ∛(12000 in³)
L= 22.89 in
So, the volume of the sphere, V' = 4πr³/3 where r = radius of cube = L/2
So, V = 4π(L/2)³/3
= 4πL³/8 × 3
= πL³/2 × 3
= πL³/6
= πV/6
= π12000/6
= 2000π
= 6283.19 in³
≅ 6283.2 in³
= 6283 in³ to the nearest whole cubic inch
Answer:
17576000 different possible license plates
Step-by-step explanation:
Note that in the question, repetition is allowed for both the letters and digits.
For the first letter, there are 26 choices to make. For the each of the letters, there are 26 choices for the second letter, and for each of the letters, there are another 26 choices for the third letter.
Therefore, this gives us 26x26x26 = 17576 possible pairs of letters.
For the three numbers, we have ten possibilities for the first digit, ten possibilities for the second digit, and ten possibilities for the third digit.
Therefore, this gives us 10x10x10 =1000 possible numbers.
The combined possibility of the license plates in both three letters and three numbers is 17576 x 1000 = 17576000 different possible license plates.
