A box has a volume of 144 in3 and a height of 4 1/2 in.What is the base area of the box?

Zepler [3.9K]

Box volume can be computed by getting the base area multiplied by the total height.

in formula for volume we have,

V = Base Area x H. Given the Volume of 144 cu in and H = 4.5 in. we can solve for Base Area (BA)

Volume (144 cu in) = BA x Height (4.5 in)

BA = 144 cu in/4.5 in

Base Area = 32 square inches

If you travel 60 miles at 60 miles per hour, how many minutes will that take you? (include unit!)

Alik [6]

There are 60 minutes in an hour. 60 times 60 is 3,600. 3,600 times 60 is 216,000.

For the years from 2002 and projected to 2024, the national health care expenditures H, in billions of dollars, can be modeled b

dmitriy555 [2]

Answer:

2019.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have been given that for the years from 2002 and projected to 2024, the national health care expenditures H, in billions of dollars, can be modeled by $H = 1,500e^{0.053t}$ where t is the number of years past 2000.

To find the year in which national health care expenditures expected to reach $4.0 trillion (that is, $4,000 billion), we will substitute $H=4,000$ in our given formula and solve for t as:

$4,000= 1,500e^{0.053t}$

$\frac{4,000}{1,500}=\frac{ 1,500e^{0.053t}}{1,500}$

$\frac{8}{3}=e^{0.053t}$

$e^{0.053t}=\frac{8}{3}$

Take natural log of both sides:

$\text{ln}(e^{0.053t})=\text{ln}(\frac{8}{3})$

$0.053t\cdot \text{ln}(e)=\text{ln}(\frac{8}{3})$

$0.053t\cdot (1)=0.9808292530117262$

$\frac{0.053t}{0.053}=\frac{0.9808292530117262}{0.053}$

$t=18.506212320$

So in the 18.5 years after 2000 the expenditure will reach 4 trillion.

$2000+18.5=2018.5$

Therefore, in year 2019 national health care expenditures are expected to reach $4.0 trillion.
