Recall the shipping box scenario from the Introduction. As an employee of a sporting goods company, you need to order shipping b

oxes for bike helmets. Each helmet is packaged in a box that is n inches wide, n inches long, and 8 inches tall. The shipping box you order should accommodate the boxed helmets along with some packing material that will take up an extra 2 inches of space along the width and 4 inches of space along the length. The height of the shipping box should be the same as the helmet box. The volume of the shipping box needs to be 1,144 cubic inches. The equation that models the volume of the shipping box is 8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1,144.

Answer:

The dimensions of the helmet box are as follows

Width is 9 inches

Length is 9 inches

Height is 8 inches

The dimensions of the shipping box ordered are as follows;

Width is 11 inches

Length is 13 inches

Height is 8 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

8(n + 2)(n + 4) = 1144

8·n² + 48·n + 64 = 1144

8·n² + 48·n - 1080 = 0

8×(n - 9)×(n + 15) = 0

∴ n = 9 or -15 inches

The dimensions of the helmet box are as follows

Width = 9 in.

Length = 9 in.

Height = 8 in.

The dimensions of the shipping box ordered are as follows;

Width = 9 + 2 = 11 in.

Length = 9 + 4 = 13 in.

Height = 8 in.

The red square is the image of the blue square after a SINGLE transformation. Use two or more complete sentences to describe eac
Leni [432]

The transformations which can lead to the red square image of the blue Square are; Translation, Reflection, Rotation.

<h3>What transformations lead to the image?</h3>

  • Translation is when we slide a figure in any direction. The translation of the shape can be by moving the blue leftward or rightward and the then downward.
  • Reflection is when we flip a figure over a line. The reflection involves reflect the blue Square over the line; y = x.
  • Rotation is when we rotate a figure a certain degree around a point. The rotation is by rotating the blue Square over 180⁰.

Please help me with this
viktelen [127]

Answer:

zero product property of multiplication

Step-by-step explanation:

step 2 is valid, because for the main expression in step 1 to be true, only one of the 2 factors need to be 0, as

0 × something is always 0.

therefore, it is sufficient to find the values of x that renders the expression of one factor to 0.
