Answer: 6 blocks

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

Volume of the rectangular prism is V=\dfrac{3}{4}\ yd^3

Length of the cubic block is a=\dfrac{1}{2}\ yd

Volume of each cubic block is

\Rightarrow V_o=\left (\dfrac{1}{2}\right)^3\\\\\Rightarrow V_o=\dfrac{1}{8}\ yd^3

Suppose, n blocks are required to measure the volume of Prism

\Rightarrow V=nV_o\\\\\Rightarrow \dfrac{3}{4}=n\cdot \dfrac{1}{8}\\\\\Rightarrow n=\dfrac{3\times 8}{4}\\\\\Rightarrow n=6\ \text{blocks}

Thus, 6 blocks are required to measure the volume of prism.

valina [46]

Answer:

-2

Step-by-step explanation:

Start with the vertex form of the equation of a parabola:  y - k = a(x - h)^2

Here h = -2, k = -3, x = -1, y = -5.  Find a:

-5 - [-3] = a(-1 - [-2])^2, or

-5 + 3 = a(1)^2, or

-2 = a

The unknown coefficient is -2.

5.) Answer: 0.45

Step-by-step explanation:

There is 1.5 quarts of paint, and 30% is yellow.

30% of 1.5 is 0.45.

6.) Answer: 7.198

Step-by-step explanation:

$499.99 is 100%. We need to find $35.99 off of it in percentage.

499.99/35.99 = 100/x

499.99x = 3599, x = 3599/499.99

x ≈ 7.198

Describe the graph of the function. y = |x – 4| – 7
Lemur [1.5K]

Answer:

This is always ''interesting'' If you see an absolute value, you always need to deal with when it is zero:

(x-4)=0 ===> x=4,

so that now you have to plot 2 functions!

For x<= 4: what's inside the absolute value (x-4) is negative, right?, then let's make it +, by multiplying by -1:

|x-4| = -(x-4)=4-x

Then:

for x<=4, y = -x+4-7 = -x-3

for x=>4, (x-4) is positive, so no changes:

y= x-4-7 = x-11,

Now plot both lines. Pick up some x that are 4 or less, for y = -x-3, and some points that are 4 or greater, for y=x-11

In fact, only two points are necessary to draw a line, right? So if you want to go full speed, choose:

x=4 and x= 3 for y=-x-3

And just x=5 for y=x-11

The reason is that the absolute value is continuous, so x=4 works for both:

x=4===> y=-4-3 = -7

x==4 ====> y = 4-11=-7!

abs() usually have a cusp int he point where it is =0
