A right rectangular prism has base dimensions of 3 inches by 12 inches and a height of 5 inches. An oblique rectangular prism ha

s base dimensions of 4 inches by 9 inches and a height of 5 inches. Are the volumes the same?

Yes they are. Given that a volume of a rectangular prism is V=l•w•h, we can plug them into an equation and compare them. I'll call the Right rectangular prism figure R and the oblique rectangular prism O


For Figure R, We know all the basic needs to find the volume. This means we can plug it in.

V=l•w•h
V=12•3•5
Now We can solve for V
V=12•15
V=180

The volume of the right rectangular prism is 180in^3


Now, For figure O.
V=9•4•5
V=9•20
V= 180.


With this in mind, We now can say that the volumes of both the rectangular prisms are the same.

Jane is saving to buy a cell phone. She is given a $100 gift to start and saves me
Dmitriy789 [7]

Answer:

See explanation

Step-by-step explanation:

Jane is given a $100 gift to start and saves $35 a month from her allowance.

  • After 1 month, Jane has saved \$100+\$35=\$135;
  • After 2 months, Jane has saved \$100+2\cdot \$35=\$170;
  • After three months, Jane has saved \$100+3\cdot \$35=\$205;
  • and so on

In general, after x months Jane has saved

\$100+x\cdot \$35=\$(100+35x).

This means that it makes sense to represent the relationship between the amount saved and the number of months with one constant rate (in this case the constant rate is 35). It makes sense because the amount of money increases by $35 each month. Since the amount of increase is constant, we get constant rate. Also the initial amount is known ($100), so there is a possibility to write the equation of linear function representing this situation.

An equation of the line that passes through the given point and is parallel to the graph of the given equation
notsponge [240]

To construct the equations for these lines, we are going to use the point-slope formula, which is:

(y - y_1) = m(x - x_1)

  • m is the slope of the line
  • (x_1, y_1) is a point on the line

1)

In this case, our point is (2, -1) and our line has a slope of 5. (Remember that the line is parallel, meaning that it has the same slope as the given line. Since the line is in the y = mx + b format, we could easily pick out the slope m as being 5.)

Thus, we can "plug in" what we know into our formula to find the equation of our line:

(y + 1) = 5(x - 2)

(y + 1) = 5x - 10

y = 5x - 11


2)

We are going to do the same thing, except our point is now (0, -5) and our slope is now 9.

(y + 5) = 9(x - 0)

y = 9x - 5


Our equations are:

1) y = 5x - 11

2) y = 9x - 5

A company that creates steering wheels for cars found that 2 of the steering wheels manufactured each hour yesterday were defect
Ymorist [56]
2 steering wheels manufactured each hour were defected
There were 50 steering wheels manufactured per hour
The fraction is \frac{2}{50}
Divide 2, which is the numerator by 50, which is the denominator
2÷50=.04
To change any decimal into a fraction, multiply by 100
The multiply .04 by 100 to change into a percentage
.04×100=4.⇒4%
4% is the percentage of defective steering wheels
