Answer:

The answer is 25/24 or 1.041

Step-by-step explanation:

Given 5/6 and 5/8, you can't find the sum at that point. This means we will have to find a common denominator, which will be 24.

6 x 4 = 24 and 8 x 3 = 24

Doing this, you will have to multiply the numerator and denominator by the value the denominator needs to be multiplied by to get 24.

5/6 x 4/4 = 20/24 and 5/8 x 3/3 = 15/24

After getting these values, you can then add them.

20/24 + 15/24 = 25/24 or 1.041

Alex_Xolod [135]

Part A:
Max volume = Volume of container = 13 in x 7 in x 6 in = 546 in^3 

Part B: 
1 cup = 14.4375 in^3 

14 cups = 14.4375 in^3 x 7 = 202.125 in^3 

Part C: 
Height of water = (202.125 in^3)/(13 in x 7 in) = 2.22 in.

Choose the graph below that has an undefined slope.

Ronch [10]

Answer:

The correct option is A.

Step-by-step explanation:

The first line passing through the points (-6,2) and (-6,0).

The slope of a line is

$m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}$

The slope of first line is

$m_1=\frac{0-2}{-6-(-6)}=\infty$

The second line passing through the points (0,-4) and (-1,1). The slope of second line is

$m_2=\frac{1-(-4)}{-1-0}=-5$

The third line passing through the points (0,-6) and (2,-6). The slope of third line is

$m_3=\frac{-6-(-6)}{2-0}=0$

The fourth line passing through the points (0,6) and (-3,-7). The slope of fourth line is

$m_4=\frac{-7-6}{-3-0}=\frac{13}{3}$

Since the slope of a vertical line is infinity, Therefore option A is correct.
