What is the solution to this equation?

small cubes with edge lengths of 1/4 inch will be packed into the right rectangular prism shown.( the base is 4 1/2, the width i

ss7ja [257]

General Idea:

We need to find the volume of the small cube given the side length of the small cube as 1/4 inch.

Also we need to find the volume of the right rectangular prism with the given dimension (the height is 4 1/2, the width is 5, and the length is 3 3/4).

To find the number of small cubes that are needed to completely fill the right rectangular prism, we need to divide volume of right rectangular prism by volume of each small cube.

Formula Used:

$Volume \; of \; Cube = a^3 \; \\\{where \; a \; is \; side \; length \; of \; cube\}\\\\Volume \; of \; Right \; Rectangular \; Prism=L \times W \times H\\\{Where \; L \; is \; Length, \; W \; is \; Width, \;and \; H \; is \; Height\}$

Applying the concept:

Volume of Small Cube:

$V_{cube}= (\frac{1}{4} )^3= \frac{1}{64} \; in^3\\\\V_{Prism}= 3 \frac{3}{4} \times 5 \times 4 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{15}{4} \times \frac{5}{1} \times \frac{9}{2} = \frac{675}{8} \\\\Number \; of \; small \; cubes= \frac{V_{Prism}}{V_{Cube}} = \frac{675}{8} \div \frac{1}{64} \\\\Flip \; the \; second \; fraction\; and \; multiply \; with \; the \; first \; fraction\\\\Number \; of \; small \; cubes \;= \frac{675}{8} \times \frac{64}{1} = 5400$

Conclusion:

The number of small cubes with side length as 1/4 inches that are needed to completely fill the right rectangular prism whose height is 4 1/2 inches, width is 5 inches, and length is 3 3/4 inches is <em><u>5400 </u></em>

mrs_skeptik [129]

Answer:

Irrational.

Step-by-step explanation:

Rational means that it is a whole number and can be written as a fraction. That doesn't apply for square rooted numbers. So, $\sqrt{62}$ is irrational.

A 15 foot ladder is placed on the top of a wall. The distance from the bottom of the wall to the bottom of the ladder is 7 feet.

kati45 [8]

The height of the wall from the question is 13.27ft

<h3 /><h3>Pythagoras theorem </h3>

The theorem states that the square of the longest side is equal to the sum of square of other two sides.

From the given question

Hypotenuse (ladder length) = 15ft

Adjacent = 7feet

Required

Height of the wall H

According to the theorem

15² = 7² + H²

H² = 225 - 49

H² = 176

H = 13.27feet

Hence the height of the wall from the question is 13.27ft
