Answer:

We know that the rectangular plate has measures of:

length = 7.6 ± 0.05 cm

width = 3.1 ± 0.05 cm

(the error is 0.05cm because we know that both measures are correct to one decimal place)

First, the upper bound of the length is equal to the measure of the length plus the error, this is:

L = 7.6 cm + 0.05 cm = 7.65 cm

The upper bound of the area is the area calculated when we use the upper bound of the length and the upper bound of the widht.

Remember that the area for a rectangle of length L and width W, is:

A = W*L

Then the upper bound of the area is:

A = (7.6cm + 0.05cm)*(3.1cm + 0.05cm) = 10.8 cm^2

Alenkinab [10]

Answer:

$C(s) = 6s^2 + \dfrac{1500}{s}\\\text{where s is the side of base.}$

Step-by-step explanation:

We are given the following in the question:

A storage shed is to be built in the shape of a (closed) box with a square base.

Volume = 150 cubic feet

Let s be the edge of square base and h be the height.

Volume of cuboid =

$l\times b\times h$

where l is the length, b is the base and h is the height.

Volume of box =

$s^2h = 150\\\\h = \dfrac{150}{s^2}$

Area of base =

$\text{side}\times \text{side} = s^2$

Cost of concrete for the base = $4

Cost of base($) = $4s^2$

Area of roof =

$\text{side}\times \text{side} = s^2$

Cost of material for the roof = $2

Cost of roof ($) = $2s^2$

Area of 4 walls =

$4\times (sh)\\=4sh$

Cost of material for the side = $2.50

Cost of material of side($) =

$2.50\times 4s(\dfrac{150}{s^2})\\\\=\dfrac{1500}{s}$

Total cost

= Cost of base + Cost of 4 sides + Cost of roof

$C(s) = 4s^2 + \dfrac{1500}{s} + 2s^2\\\\C(s) = 6s^2 + \dfrac{1500}{s}$

is the required cost function.

Which expressions are polynomials?

cupoosta [38]

The expressions that are polynomial are:

6 + w

$2x^4 - y$

z + 1

Solution:

A polynomial is an expression with variables and coefficients with the operations of addition, subtraction, multiplication, and non-negative integer exponents of variables

1) 6 + w

Here "w" is a variable, hence it is a polynomial expression

$2)\ 2x^4 - y$

This is a polynomial, since it has variables and coefficients and variable with non negative exponent

3) z + 1

This is also a polynomial with variable "z" and has addition operation

$4)\ y^2 - y\sqrt{3} + 4$

Since it has root so it is not a polynomial

The Answer is A.

Repeating number is not a function. It's ok to have repeating number in Y or the range but not the X which is the Domain.
