In its most general form, algebra is the study of mathematical symbols and the rules for manipulating these symbols; it is a unifying thread of almost all of mathematics. It includes everything from elementary equation solving to the study of abstractions such as groups, rings, and fields.

The triangles shown are similar.
valkas [14]
15, because 3 goes into 9, 3 times and, 4 goes into 12, 3 times therefore x has to follow this rule because these 2 triangles are similar and because it already gives you 5 just take 5*3=15 there is your answer enjoy!=)

The base of the pyramid is a square what is the surface area if the pyramids height is 4 feet in the area of the base is 36 ft.?
KATRIN_1 [288]

Answer:

96 ft²

Step-by-step explanation:

The general formula for the surface area of a pyramid is:  

SA = \frac{1}{2}pl + B, were p = the perimeter of the base, l = the slant height and B = the area of the base

Since the area of the base is 36 ft², then each side is √36, or 6 ft. The perimeter is the sum of all the sides, so 6 x 4 = 24 ft.

Given the overall height of the pyramid is 4 feet, you can use the Pythagorean Theorem (a² + b² = c²) to find the slant height (hypotenuse) of the pyramid.  Using 3 feet for 'a' and 4 feet for 'b':

3² + 4² = c² or 9 + 16 = 25

25 = c² or c = 5

SA =  \frac{1}{2}(24)(5) + 36

SA = 60 + 36 = 96 ft²

A rectangular solid and a cube are of equal volume. If the rectangular solid is 20 centimeters long, 5 centimeters wide, and 10
abruzzese [7]

Answer:

10 centimeters.

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we need to remember what's the formula to get the volume of a rectangular solid and a cube.

The volume of the first equals:

Volume = Length x Width x Height

While the volume of the cube is:

Volume = a^{3} where a is the edge.

We are given the measures of the rectangular solid so we can calculate its volume:

Volume= (20)(5)(10)=1000 cubic cms.

Now, we know that  both the volume of the rectangular solid and the cube are the same so we will use this information to calculate the edge of the cube.

1000=a^3 \\\sqrt[3]{1000} =\sqrt[3]{a^3} \\10=a

Thus the length of an edge of the cube is 10 centimeters

You have a gift card for a coffee shop worth $90. Each day you use the card to get a coffee for $4.10. Write an explicit formula
Fiesta28 [93]

Answer: The value of the card after you buy your 8th coffee will be $61.3

Step-by-step explanation:

The worth of the gift card for the coffee shop is $90. Each day you use the card to get a coffee for $4.10. This means that the worth of the gift card is reducing by $4.10 each day. This rate is in arithmetic progression.

The formula for the nth term of an arithmetic sequence, Tn is expressed as

Tn = a + (n-1)d

Where a is the first term

d is the common difference

n is the number of days

From the information given,

a = $90

d = - $4.1

The explicit formula representing the amount of money available will be

Tn = 90 - 4.1(n - 1)

The value of the card after you buy your 8th coffee will be

T8 = 90 - 4.1(8 - 1) = T8 = 90 - 4.1×7

T8 = 90 - 28.7

T8 = $61.3
