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.

Determine the arithmetic sequence if the fourth term is negative six and the eleventh term is negative thirty four
ICE Princess25 [194]
An arithmetic sequence takes the form

a_n=a_{n-1}+d

where d is the common difference between terms. You can solve for a_n in terms of any of the previous terms of the sequence:

a_n=a_{n-1}+d\implies~a_n=a_{n-2}+2d\implies~a_n=a_{n-3}+3d\implies\cdots\implies~a_n=a_{n-k}+kd

for some integer 1\le k\le n-1

Continuing in this way, you know that the sequence can be defined explicitly in terms of the first term a_1

a_n=a_1+(n-1)d

Given that the 4th term is a_4=-6 and the 11th term is a_{11}=-34, you have the following system of equations.

\begin{cases}-6=a_1+(4-1)d\\-34=a_1+(11-1)d\end{cases}

Solving this system for the two unknowns yields a_1=6 and d=-4.

So, the sequence is given explicitly by

a_n=6+(n-1)(-4)=-4n+5

k0ka [10]

In 2015, eighty-seven babies per one thousand died before reaching one year of age. This figure is called the infant mortality rate.

Infant mortality is defined as a child dying before turning one. The number of newborn deaths for every 1,000 live births is known as the infant mortality rate. The infant mortality rate is a significant indicator of the general health of a society in addition to providing us with valuable information on maternal and baby health. In the United States, there were 5.4 infant deaths for every 1,000 live births in 2020.
