David has a triangular prism that has an equilateral base. Also, the base of the prism is of the same length as its height. Pick

Answer:

a) Triangle

b) Rectangle

Step-by-step explanation:

A triangular prism that has an equilateral base and a height with the same length as the base of the prism.

a) Shape from horizontal slicing

A plane parallel to the base of a triangular prism will  intersect a cross section that is the same shape as its  bases. So the cross section of the horizontal slicing is an equilateral triangle (all the sides of the triangle are equal).

b) Shape from vertical slicing

If the triangular prism is sliced vertically, the resulting shape would be a rectangle with a length that is the same as the base of the prism.

A cuboid with a volume of 924cm^3 has dimensions
Leona [35]

The values of x are -22 and 10

The dimensions are 4 cm , 11 cm , 21 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

The given is:

  • A cuboid with a volume of 924 cm³
  • It has dimensions  4 cm , (x + 1) cm and (x + 11) cm

We want to show that x² + 12x - 220 = 0, and solve the equation to find its dimensions

The volume of a cuboid is the product of its three dimensions

∵ The dimensions of the cuboid are 4 , (x + 1) , (x + 11)

∴ Its volume = 4(x + 1)(x + 11)

- Multiply the two brackets and then multiply the product by 4

∵ (x + 1)(x + 11) = (x)(x) +(x)(11) + (1)(x) + (1)(11)

∴ (x + 1)(x + 11) = x² + 11x + x + 11 ⇒ add like terms

∴ (x + 1)(x + 11) = x² + 12x + 11

∴ Its volume = 4(x² + 12x + 11)

∴ Its volume = 4x² + 48x + 44

∵ The volume of the cuboid = 924 cm³

- Equate the expression of the volume by 924

∴ 4x² + 48x + 44 = 924

- Subtract 924 from both sides

∴ 4x² + 48x - 880 = 0

- Simplify it by dividing all terms by 4

∴ x² + 12x - 220 = 0

Now let us factorize it into two factors

∵ x² = x × x

∵ 220 = 22 × 10

∵ 22(x) - 10(x) = 12x ⇒ the middle term

∴ x² + 12x - 220 = (x + 22)(x - 10)

∴ (x + 22)(x - 10) = 0

- Equate each factor by 0 to find x

∵ x + 22 = 0 ⇒ subtract 22 from both sides

∴ x = -22

∵ x - 10 = 0 ⇒ add 10 to both sides

∴ x = 10

∴ The values of x are -22 and 10

We can not use x = -22 because there is no negative dimensions, then we will use x = 10

∵ The dimensions are 4 , (x + 1) , (x + 11)

∵ x = 10

∴ The dimensions are 4 , (10 + 1) , (10 + 11)

∴ The dimensions are 4 cm , 11 cm , 21 cm

Write an equation of a line that is perpendicular to the line y=2/3x and passes through origin
sesenic [268]

keeping in mind that perpendicular lines have negative reciprocal slopes, hmmm what's the slope of the equation above anyway?

\bf y = \cfrac{2}{3}x\implies y = \stackrel{\stackrel{m}{\downarrow }}{\cfrac{2}{3}}x+0\qquad \impliedby \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} slope-intercept~form\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y=\underset{y-intercept}{\stackrel{slope\qquad }{\stackrel{\downarrow }{m}x+\underset{\uparrow }{b}}} \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array} \\\\[-0.35em] ~\dotfill

\bf \stackrel{\textit{perpendicular lines have \underline{negative reciprocal} slopes}} {\stackrel{slope}{\cfrac{2}{3}}\qquad \qquad \qquad \stackrel{reciprocal}{\cfrac{3}{2}}\qquad \stackrel{negative~reciprocal}{-\cfrac{3}{2}}}

so we're really looking for the equation of a line whose slope is -3/2 and runs through (0,0).

\bf (\stackrel{x_1}{0}~,~\stackrel{y_1}{0})~\hspace{10em} \stackrel{slope}{m}\implies -\cfrac{3}{2} \\\\\\ \begin{array}{|c|ll} \cline{1-1} \textit{point-slope form}\\ \cline{1-1} \\ y-y_1=m(x-x_1) \\\\ \cline{1-1} \end{array}\implies y-\stackrel{y_1}{0}=\stackrel{m}{-\cfrac{3}{2}}(x-\stackrel{x_1}{0})\implies y=-\cfrac{3}{2}x

Jessica rolled two six-sided number cubes with sides numbered 1 through 6. The list below shows the possible outcomes when rolli
timurjin [86]
The list of possible outcomes in the question is totally incomprehensible.  But from our vast experience with questions like this and dice in general, we know there are 36 of them.

Now, here are all the ways to roll a total of 9:

3, 6
6, 3
4, 5
5, 4

Four of the 36 possible rolls result in a 9.
So the probability (with honest dice) is 4/36 = 1/9 = 11.1% .

I need help please ​
ASHA 777 [7]

Answer:

the answer would be 81

Step-by-step explanation:

6 to the second power would be 36 then you would multiply 36x2 and it would equal 72. then you would do 2x6 which is 12. then 72+12-3= 81
