Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
step 1
Find the volume of the composite figure
The volume of the composite figure is equal to the volume of the cube plus the volume of the square prism
so
step 2
Find the value of the figure
Multiply the volume by $1.46 per cubic centimeter
9514 1404 393
Answer:
√55 ≈ 7.4
Step-by-step explanation:
The easiest way to find the square root of 55 is to use a calculator.
√55 ≈ 7.4161984871
Rounded to the nearest tenth, this is ...
√55 ≈ 7.4
__
You can make a first approximation of the root by linearly interpolating between the roots of the perfect squares* on either side of 55.
√49 = 7
√64 = 8
√55 ≈ 7 +(55 -49)/(64 -49) = 7 6/15 = 7 2/5
√55 ≈ 7.4
_____
* For numbers greater than 3.3, this sort of approximation will give the value of the root accurate to the nearest tenth. The approximation is better for larger numbers.
