The restrooms for the former Estabrook Hall were known to each be 117 cubic feet in volume. We are tasked with creating a 1:4 sc

ale model of one of the rooms. For the purposes of this analysis, we'll treat the facilities like simple rectangular boxes. What is the volume of the model in cubic inches? If the model has a floor area of 117 sq. Inches, what is the height of the real facility? (include units with answer)

Answer:

1) The volume of the model is 3159 in.³

2) The height of the real facility is 61.94 ft

Step-by-step explanation:

1) The parameters given are;

Volume of the Estabrook hall = 117 ft³

Scale of model = 1:4

For the scale factor of a volume, we have;

Volume \, scale \, factor =\left (\frac{a}{b}   \right )^3 = \left (\frac{1}{4}   \right )^3 = \frac{1}{64}

That is the volume of the model is 1/64 times the volume of the actual Estabrook hall restrooms or

\frac{1}{64} \times  117 \, ft^3= 1\tfrac{53}{64} \, ft^3

∴ The volume of the model = 1.83 ft.³

1 ft.³ = 1728 in.³

∴ 1.83 ft.³ = 1.83 ft.³ × 1728 in.³/ft.³ = 3159 in.³

2) Where the model of the floor has an area of 117 in.²

Therefore, since the volume of a rectangular prism shape = Floor area × Height, we have

The height, h = Volume/(floor area) = 3159/117 = 185.8 in.

From a scale of 1:4, we have that the height of the real facility = 4 × 185.8 in.

Hence, the height of the real facility = 743.3 in = 61.94 ft.

Three schools are located at points A, B, and C. The school district wants to locate its new stadium at a location that will be
dangina [55]

I have attached the image showing the location of the three schools.

Answer:

Should be built at the centroid of the triangle formed by points A, B and C.

Step-by-step explanation:

From the attached image, we see that if we join the 3 points by a straight line, they will form a triangle.

Now, to get a location that will be roughly the same distance from all 3 schools, it means a point that is equal to each of 3 vertex of the triangle.

The point that is equal to each vertex of a triangle is known as "Centroid".

Now, to find this centroid, we will add up the (x, y) coordinates of the 3 vertex and divide by 3.

For example;let's assume ;A has a coordinate of (x1, y1) ; B has a coordinate of (x2, y2) ; C has a coordinate of (x3, y3).

The coordinates of the centroid will be;

[(x1 + x2 + x3)/3], [(y1 + y2 + y3)/3]

Identify the values of a, b, and c.
Vikki [24]

Answer:

  • a=4
  • b=12
  • c=9
  • You have correctly selected the standard form.

Step-by-step explanation:

  (2x +3)² = (2x)² + 2(2x)(3) +(3)²

  = 4x² +12x +9

Comparing that to ax² +bx +c, we can identify ...

  • a = 4
  • b = 12
  • c = 9
