So the diagonal of cube
this was a practice act question so her's the answer

look at the cube through one of the faces
you will see the diagonal as the hypotonuse of  a triangle
and also a triangle on the floor (look at attachment)
the ,diagonal is 28
a^2+b^2=28^2
a=b since it is a cube
remember that this is a 45,45 triangle so therefor
a=b=x
c=x√2 so
28=x√2
divide both sides by √2
28/(√2)=x
the diagonal on the floor is 28/(√2)
the sides of the triangle form another 45 45 90 triangle with 28/(√2) as hyponuse so
a=b=x
c=x√2=28/(√2)
solve for x
x√2=28/(√2)
divide both sides by √2
same as mujlitply both sides by 1/(√2) so
28/(√2) times 1/(√2)=28/(2)=14
the answer of 1 diagonal is 14 cm
the answer is 14cm

Softa [21]

Answer:

Each student gets 0.3 liters or 300 milliliters of orange juice.

Step-by-step explanation:

3 liters = 3000 milliliters

3L/10 or 3000ml/10 = 0.3 L or 300 ml

Consider U = {x|x is a real number}. A = {x|x ∈ U and x + 2 > 10} B = {x|x ∈ U and 2x > 10} Which statements are true? 5 ∉
-Dominant- [34]

x+2 > 10 solves to x > 8 after we subtract 2 from both sides

So set A is the set of real numbers that are larger than 8. The value 8 itself is not in set A. The same can be said about 5 as well.


Set B is the set of values that are larger than 5 since 2x > 10 turns into x > 5 after dividing both sides by 2. The value x = 5 is not in set B since x > 5 would turn into 5 > 5 which is false. The values x = 6, x = 8, and x = 9 are in set B.


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


Summarizing everything, we can say...

5 is not in set A. True

5 is in set B. False

6 is in set A. False

6 is not in set B. False

8 is not in set A. True

8 is in set B. True

9 is in set A. True

9 is not in set B. False

Vertex of x^2-10x+30
Shtirlitz [24]

The easiest way to find the vertex is to convert this standard form equation into vertex form, which is y = a(x - h)^2 + k.

Firstly, put x^2 - 10x into parentheses: y = (x^2 - 10x) + 30

Next, we want to make what's inside the parentheses a perfect square. To do that, we need to divide the x coefficient by 2 and square it. In this case, the result is 25. Add 25 inside the parentheses and subtract 25 outside of the parentheses: y = (x^2 - 10x + 25) + 30 - 25

Next, factor what's inside the parentheses and combine like terms outside of the parentheses, and your vertex form is: y = (x - 5)^2 + 5.

Now going back to the formula of the vertex form, y = a(x - h)^2 + k, the vertex is (h,k). Using our vertex equation, we can see that the vertex is (5,5).
