6 0

Answer:

B. 21

Step-by-step explanation:

The fractions are there to just make the problem seem complicated, but just rewrite it without the fractions.

"What is a common multiple for 7 and 3?"

In this problem it's easy, all you have to do is guess and check.

A: A doesn't work. 7 is not a factor of 18.

B: B works! Both 3 and 7 are factors of 21.

C: C doesn't work. 7 is not a factor of 3.

D: D doesn't work. Neither are a factor of 4.

They only leave us with one solution, B.

Answer:

The correct answer is option C.  490 units ²

Step-by-step explanation:

Area of cuboid = 2(lb + bh + lh)

From the figure we can see that a rectangular prism.

<u>To find the surface area of prism</u>

Here l = 14 units

b = 7 units and h = 7 units

Surface area = 2((14 * 7) + (7 * 7) + (14 * 7))

= 490 units ²

A lidless box is to be made with a volume of 256256 ft cubed 3. Find the dimensions of the box that requires the least amount of
sveta [45]

The optimum shape of such a box is half a cube. The corresponding cube will have a volume of 2×256 ft³ = 512 ft³ = (8 ft)³. Such a box has a square base that is 8 ft on a side. If the height is half that of the cube, it will be 4 ft.

The dimensions of your box will be 8 ft square by 4 ft high.

_____

If the base dimension is x ft, the area (quantity of material) is

... a = x² + 4x(256/x²)

... a = x² + 1024x⁻¹

Then the derivative of area with respect to x is

... a' = 2x -1024x⁻²

Setting this derivative to zero and solving for x gives the value of x for minimum area.

... 0 = 2x -1024/x²

... 512 = x³

... x = 8 . . . . . . . . same as above.

Find the measure of each angle that is labeled on the diagram shown below.
Elza [17]
Lets take it in order:

1) 90 deg because the angle right next to it is a right angle
2) 128 deg becasue of the angle directly across from it
3) x = 180 - 128 = 52 deg
4) 180 = 90 + 52 + x so x = 180 - 90 - 52 = 38
5) 180 = 38 + x so x = 180 - 38 = 142
6) Same as 4
7) Same as 5

Check my math, as I just did it in my head
