Answer:

Since the plane if cutting through the prism to make 5 sides, than the original shape needs to have less than 5.

A prism, is a 3D shape, so you can't have a 2 sided shape.

Now you have a choice of 3+or 4 sides.

A 3 sides shape is a triangle, which also can't be cut into a 5 sided prism, so the answer would need to be 4.

laiz [17]

Answer:

At t=1, Rate of Change=-36.86

At t=10 hours, Rate of Change =-0.0088

Step-by-step explanation:

The function which describes the number of facts of a certain type which are remembered after t hours is given as:

f(t)=\frac{85t}{99t-85}

To determine the Rate of Change at the given time, we first look for the derivative of f(t).

Applying quotient rule:

f^{'}(t)=\frac{-7225}{{\left( 85 - 99\,t\right) }^{2}}

At t=1

f^{'}(1)=\frac{-7225}{(85-99)^{2}}

=-36.86

At t=10 hours

f^{'}(10)=\frac{-7225}{(85-99(10))^{2}}

=-0.0088

One year there was a total of 59 commercial and noncommercial orbital launches worldwide. In addition, the number of noncommerci
Lina20 [59]

Answer:

The number of commercial orbital launches is equal to 19 and the number of noncommercial orbital launches is equal to 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

IMPORTANT INFORMATION: The number of noncommercial orbital launches was two more than twice the number of commercial orbital launches.

Let's say that the number of commercial orbital launches is equal to x. Now, the number of noncommercial orbital launches is equal to 2x+2.

We are told that if we add the number of commercial and noncommercial orbital launches together we will get 59.

Therefore, if we add 2x+2 with x we should get 59:

2x+2+x=59

3x+2=59

3x=57

x=19

This is how we can come to the answer that the number of commercial orbital launches is equal to 19 and the number of noncommercial orbital launches is equal to 40 (2x+2=2*19+2=38+2=40).

Hope this helps!
