Answer:

-4 is the mimumum of y=-3+cos(x+4)

Step-by-step explanation:

The minimum value of y=cos(x) is -1.

The minimum value of y=cos(x+4) is still -1; the +4 inside the cosine function only affected the horizontal shift.

The minimum value of y=-3+cos(x+4) is -3-1 which is -4. This brought the graph down 3 units so if the minimum was previously -1 and it got brought down 3 units then it's new minimum is -4.

Answer: 8cm

Step-by-step explanation:

$V=\pi r^2h$

Solve for h;

$h=\frac{V}{\pi r^2}$

$h=\frac{400cm^3}{(3.14)(4cm)^2}$

$h=7.96\\h=8$

Question is below (wasn't sure about the answer)

Answer: Choice A)

$H = \frac{SA}{2(L+W)} - \frac{LW}{L+W}\\\\$

=================================================

Work Shown:

$SA = 2(LW + LH + HW)\\\\2(LW + LH + HW) = SA\\\\LW + LH + HW = \frac{SA}{2}\\\\LH + HW = \frac{SA}{2} - LW\\\\H(L + W) = \frac{SA}{2} - LW\\\\H = \frac{\frac{SA}{2} - LW}{(L + W)}\\\\H = \frac{SA}{2(L+W)} - \frac{LW}{L+W}\\\\$
