It's 1/8 of a chance that he'll get a pearl. There are 96 treasures in the chest. 12 of them are pearls. 12/96 is converted into 1/8, therefore that is the answer

Which is the equation of a parabola with vertex (4,3) and directrix x = 6?
Cloud [144]

Answer:

( y - 3 )² = 8 ( x - 4 )

Step-by-step explanation:

The given vertex of Parabola is ( 4 , 3)

And Directrix is X = 6

The equation of parabola is

( y - k )² = - 4 ( P) ( x - h )

Now  p = 4 - x = 4 - 6 = - 2

And given value of ( k , h) = ( 4 , 3)

Or ( y - 3 )² = - 4 ( - 2) ( x - 4 )

Or,  ( y - 3 )² = 8 ( x - 4 )

Hence The equation of parabola with directrix x = 6 And

vertex ( 4 , 3 ) is  ( y - 3 )² = 8 ( x - 4 )     Answer

What is the area of a room in feet scaled at 1:20 when the measurements are 4 inches wide and 5 inches in length
Otrada [13]

Answer:

666.67 ft^2

Step-by-step explanation:

We start with a 4x5 scale room

We then use the 1:20 scale to multiply the 4 and the 5 by 20

4*20=80

5*20=100

We now have the dimensions of the actual room, 80in.x100in.

Area=length*width

A=100*80

A=8000 in^2

We are not done yet, though. To get feet, you convert inches to feet. 1 foot=12 inches.

8000/12=666.667, or 666.67, or 667, depending what you would round to

ritas room is of a rectangular prism. it is 12 feet long,10 feet wide, and 8 feet high. what is the surface area of ritas room?
DENIUS [597]
*Hint: The formula for finding the surface area of a rectangular prism is SA = 2 (wh + lw + lh).

Now, just plug in and solve.

SA = 2 [(10)(8) + (12)(10) + (12)(8)]
SA = 2 (80 + 120 + 96)
SA = 2 (296)
SA = 592.

The surface area of Rita's room is 592 feet squared.
