Answer:

Let's say that someone was building a yard.

(I tired to make this all connected.)

For Part 1) He wants to put his fence around the yard. If it's a rectangle measuring 45 * 32 ft, he would have to find the perimeter of the rectangle so he could install the correct amount of fences. The perimeter is the measurement 'around' a shape.

For area (part 2), if he wanted to know how much he was able to put stuff inside, he would have to find the area of the rectangle. The area is the space occupied by a 2D shape.

Part 3: The person then wants to paint a box as a decoration. He has a small 3 * 3 *3 box. The person needs to find how much paint he needs to cover the box appropriately, or the surface area of the box. Surface area is the total measurement of the surface in a 3D figure.

Part 4: He then wants to put something in the box. He does not know how much can he fit in it, so he would have to find the volume of the box. The volume of a 3D figure is the measurement of how much it can 'fill' the shape.

Hope this helps.

Honestly this makes no logical sense but you should take 43,118+6,549=49,667

Compare the two ratios is 6 : 15 less than 30 : 80 or greater than?

romanna [79]

Work:
6/15 = x/1
To get from 15 to 1, you have to divide by 15. So, to make an equal field, divide 6 by 15.

6 : 15 is the same as 2 : 5 or 0.4.

30/80 = x/1
To get from 80 to 1, you have to divide by 80. So, to make an equal field, divide 30 by 80.

30 : 80 is the same as 3 : 8 or .875.

Comparing the two, 30 : 80 is greater than 6 : 15.

Hope this helps. Have a good day.

How many even 3-digit positive integers can be written using the digits 1,2,4,7, and 8?

N76 [4]

Looking at the question, we can see we have 5 different numbers that can go in any order.

5 * 4 * 3

The above is basically saying there are 5 different numbers that can be multiplied by 4 other numbers. Those 2 can be multiplied by 3 different ones, leaving us with a 3 digit positive integer.

5 * 4* 3 = 60

Directed line segment has endpoints P(– 8, – 4) and Q(4, 12). Determine the point that partitions the directed line segment in a

larisa86 [58]

Answer:

Point (1,8)

Step-by-step explanation:

We will use segment formula to find the coordinates of point that will partition our line segment PQ in a ratio 3:1.

When a point divides any segment internally in the ratio m:n, the formula is:

$[x=\frac{mx_2+nx_1}{m+n},y= \frac{my_2+ny_1}{m+n}]$
