What is the surface area of a box if it is scaled up by a factor of 10

Mathematics
1 answer:
True [87]3 years ago
4 0
Answer: 100 x the original surface area of the box.
Discussion: Note that a box implies three dimensions. However, when dealing with surface area, we are dealing only with two dimensions. Therefore, scaling up a box where we have sides a, b, and c, by a factor of 10, we increase each side by a factor of 10. The scaled up box now has each of those dimensions as 10a, 10b, and 10c. Whereas the VOLUME is increased from (a x b x c) to (10a x 10b x 10c), the SURFACE AREA is increased from 2(a x b) + 2(a x c) + 2(b x c) to 2(10a x 10b) + 2(10a x 10c) + 2(10b x 10c). The SURFACE AREA is therefore kept in only square units, while VOLUME is in cubed units.

Answer:

X Y

-5 7

-2 1

-1 -1

2 -7

Step-by-step explanation:

If x = -5, then:

y = -3 -2(-5)

y = -3 + 10

y = 7

If x = -2, then:

y = - 3 -2(-2)

y = -3 + 4

y = 1

If x= -1, then:

y = -3 -2(-1)

y = - 3 + 2

y = -1

If x=2, then:

y = -3 -2(2)

y = -3 -4

y = -7

1.678 rounded to the nearest hundredth​
Talja [164]

Good morning,

Answer:

1.678 rounded to the nearest hundredth is 1.68

Step-by-step explanation:

By looking at the number 1.678 it’s clear that the hundredth digit is 7

since 8∈{5,6,7,8,9} then we delete the 8 and add one to 7

we get 1.68 .
