Select the correct answer from each drop-down menu. Andy is designing a dice tray in the shape of a rectangular prism to use dur

ing a role-playing game. The tray needs to be three centimeters high and have a volume of 252 cubic centimeters in order for the dice to roll properly. The length of the tray should be five centimeters longer than its width. The volume of a rectangular prism is found using the formula V = l · w · h, where l is the length, w is the width, and h is the height. Complete the equation that models the volume of the tray in terms of its width, x, in centimeters. 5 x2 + 3 x = 252 Is it possible for the width of the tray to be 7.5 centimeters?

Answer:

w = 7 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume = 252 cm³

Height, h = 3cm

Let width = w

Length, l = w + 5

Volume of rectangular prism, V = l * w * h

252 = (w + 5) * w * 3

252 = (w + 5) * 3w

252 = 3w² + 15w

3w² + 15w - 252 = 0

w² + 5w - 84 = 0

w² + 12w - 7w - 84 = 0

w(w + 12) - 7(w + 12) = 0

(w + 12) = 0 or (w - 7) = 0

w = - 12 or w = 7

w cannot be negative

Hence, w = 7 cm

What is the center and radius of the circle with the given equation x^2 + y^2 + 14x - 12y +69 = 0
ohaa [14]

Answer:

Center is (7,-6)

Our radius is 4

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 69 to both sides

Complete the square of the x terms and y terms.

{x}^{2}  + 14x

{y}^{2}  - 12y

(To complete the square divide the coefficient by 2 and square it).

(\frac{14}{2} ) {}^{2}  = 49

( \frac{ - 12}{2} ) {}^{2}  = 36

Add those terms to the full equation. Add 36 and 49 to the right side as well

{x}^{2}   + 14x  + 49 +  {y}^{2}  - 12y + 36 =  16

Simplify the x and y terms into a binomial.

(x + 7) {}^{2}  + (y  - 6) {}^{2}  = 16

Set the left side equal to zero separately to find the center and take the square root of the right side to find the radius.

x + 7 = 0

x =  - 7

y - 6 = 0

y = 6

16 =  {x}^{2}

4 = x

So our center is (-7,6)

Our radius is 4.

Ants can hear each other up to a range of 2 m. An ant at A, 1 m
Nataly_w [17]

Answer:

The secant of the angle equals the distance between the ants divided by the distance from the first ant to the wall, So sec 62° = d / 1, where d is the distance between the ants. That's more than the hearing range of 2m, so yes, the friend will be a meal. Step-by-step explanation:
