Answer:

small prism: 630 m²
large prism: 2520 m²

Step-by-step explanation:

The total surface area of the prism is the sum of the base area and the lateral area. The base area is made up of two right triangles, so will be the product of the triangle leg dimensions. The lateral area is made up of three rectangles whose width is that of the prism and whose equivalent length is the perimeter of the triangle base.

For the smaller prism, the area is ...

(20 m)(21 m) +(3 m)(20 m + 21 m + 29 m) = 420 m² +210 m² = 630 m²

The larger prism is similar, with a scale factor of 2, so its area will be 2² = 4 times that of the smaller prism:

4×630 m² = 2520 m²

In summary, the total surface area of each prism is ...

small prism: 630 m²
large prism: 2520 m²

Answer:

$\sqrt[]{\frac{x+8}{4}}-3$

Step-by-step explanation:

$g(x)=4(x+3)^2-8$

First rewrite $g(x)$ as y

$y=4(x+3)^2-8$

Now swap y and x

$x=4(y+3)^2-8$

Add 8 on both sides.

$x+8=4(y+3)^2-8+8$

$x+8=4(y+3)^2$

Divide by 4.

$\frac{x+8}{4} =\frac{4(y+3)^2}{4}$

$\frac{x+8}{4}=(y+3)^2$

Extract the square root on both sides.

$\sqrt[]{\frac{x+8}{4}}=\sqrt[]{(y+3)^2}$

$\sqrt[]{\frac{x+8}{4}}=y+3$

Subtract 3 on both sides.

$\sqrt[]{\frac{x+8}{4}}-3=y+3-3$

$\sqrt[]{\frac{x+8}{4}}-3=y$

Answer:

The sample size is $n =33$

Step-by-step explanation:

From the question we are told that

The margin of error is E = 1.5 seconds

The standard deviation is s = 4 seconds

Given that the confidence level is 97% then the level of significance is mathematically represented as

$\alpha =( 100 -97)\%$

=> $\alpha = 0.03$

Generally from the normal distribution table the critical value of $\frac{\alpha }{2}$ is

$Z_{\frac{\alpha }{2} } = 2.17$

Generally the sample size is mathematically represented as

$n =[ \frac{Z_{\frac{\sigma }{2 } } * \sigma }{E} ]^2$

=> $n =[ \frac{2.17 * 4 }{1.5} ]^2$

=> $n =33$

F(x) = 4x^3+...+ 9<br>list all possible rational zeroes of the function

Maru [420]

The Rational Root Theorem says any rational zeros of f must be a fraction with a factor of the constant (9 here) in the numerator and a factor of the leading coefficient (4 here) in the denominator. We have to include negative factors.

Factors of 9: -9, -3, -1, 1, 3, 9

Factors of 4: 1, 2, 4

We only have to consider negative numbers for the numerator to get all the possible values.

We just make the list, going through all the numerators one denominator at a time.

Possible rational zeros, i.e. possible rational values for x such that f(x)=0 are

Answer: -9, -3, -1, 1, 3, 9, -9/2, -3/2, -1/2, 1/2, 3/2, 9/2, -9/4, -3/4, -1/4, 1/4, 3/4, 9/4
