12^2+b^2=40^2

144+b^2= 1600

b^2 =1456

√b2= √1456

b = 38.2

tan = 12/38.2

Or .31

The width of a box in the shape of a rectangular prism is 4 inches more than the height h . The length is the difference of 9 in

Doss [256]

Answer:

$(a)$ $V = -H^3+ 5H^2 + 36H$

$(b)$ $Length = 5in; Width = 9in; Height = 5in$ or $Length = 3in; Width = 10in; Height = 6in$

Step-by-step explanation:

Let:

$W=Width; L = Length; H = Height$

Given

$W = 4 + H$

$L = 9 - H$

Solving (a): The polynomial for the volume in terms of height

Volume (V) is calculated using:

$V = L * W * H$

$V = (9 - H) * (4 + H) * H$

Expand

$V = (9 - H) * (4H + H^2)$

Open brackets

$V = 36H + 9H^2 - 4H^2 - H^3$

$V = 36H + 5H^2 - H^3$

Rewrite as:

$V = -H^3+ 5H^2 + 36H$

Solving (b): The dimensions when Volume = 180

Substitute 180 for V in: $V = -H^3+ 5H^2 + 36H$

$180 = -H^3+ 5H^2 + 36H$

Rewrite as:

$H^3 - 5H^2 - 36H + 180 = 0$

Factorize:

$H^2(H - 5) - 36(H - 5) = 0$

$(H^2 - 36)(H - 5) = 0$

Express $H^2 - 36$ as difference of two squares

$(H - 6)(H + 6)(H - 5) =0$

This gives:

$H - 6 =0==> H = 6$

$H + 6 =0==> H = -6$

$H - 5 =0==> H = 5$

Since the height can not be negative, then H = 5 or H = 6

Recall that:

$W = 4 + H$

$L = 9 - H$

When H = 5

$W = 4 + 5 = 9$

$L = 9 - 5 = 4$

When H = 6

$W = 4 + 6 = 10$

$L = 9 - 6 = 3$

Hence, the dimensions of the box are:

$Length = 5in; Width = 9in; Height = 5in$

or

$Length = 3in; Width = 10in; Height = 6in$

Answer:

B) The population is increasing by 102.2% each year.

A) 720,500 represents the initial amount of people in January 1980 and 1.022 represents the increase factor that multiplies to the amount.

Step-by-step explanation:

1.022 times 100 equals 102.2% (a number in the decimals place times 100 give you the percent).

6% of 124 =<br> 7.44<br> 0.744<br> 74.4<br> 744<br> If you could explain would be great

Nezavi [6.7K]

To turn a percentage into a decimal, divide it by a hundred. So, 6% --> 6/100 which is 0.06. To find a percentage of a number, multiply the number by the percent in decimal form. In this case, 124 x 0.06. The answer is 7.44. So 6% of 124 is 7.44
