Four congruent square pieces with lengths of sides of 6 cm were cut out of corners of a square piece of cardboard. Then this pie

ce of cardboard was folded into an open-top box. Find the original dimensions of the piece of cardboard if the volume of the resulting box is 486 cm3.

Answer:

21 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

You know the volume is 486 cm^3

The height for the box is 6 cm

The length and the width equal each other (because it's a square)

We can call the length and the width "x"

The volume of a box equals V=lwh

Now we can substitute

486=6*x*x

486=6x^2

81=x^2

x=9 or -9

x cannot be -9 because dimensions cannot be negative

Now we have to add 9+6+6 to find the whole side of the original square (before the 6x6 sqares were cut out)

9+6+6=21

Thet contradict each other, that's why both of them are incorrect.
<span>Suppose that a polynomial has four roots: s, t, u, and v. If the polynomial were evaluated at any of these values, it would have to be zero. Therefore, the polynomial can be written in this form. 

p(x)(x - s)(x - t)(x - u)(x - v), where p(x) is some non-zero polynomial 

This polynomial has a degree of at least 4. It therefore cannot be cubic. 

Now prove Kelsey correct. We have already proved that there can be no more than three roots. To prove that a cubic polynomial with three roots is possible, all we have to do is offer a single example of that. This one will do. 

(x - 1)(x - 2)(x - 3) 

This is a cubic polynomial with three roots, and four or more roots are not possible for a cubic polynomial. Kelsey is correct. 

Incidentally, if this is a roller coaster we are discussing, then a cubic polynomial is not such a good idea, either for a vertical curve or a horizontal curve. I hope this helps</span><span>

Answer:

This should be a biology question. But the answer is: Complemetary strand will be  TAGCCG

Step-by-step explanation:

what would be the complementary strand of DNA for ATCGGC?

A always pairs with T and and C always pairs with G in the complementary DNA strand.

DNA sequence is                     ATCGGC

Complemetary strand will be  TAGCCG
