Answer: 1\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ feet}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given: Length of sandwich = 10\dfrac12\text{ feet}=\dfrac{21}{2}\text{ feet}

Total people = 14

If everyone gets a same sized piece , then length of each piece should be

\dfrac{\text{ Length of sandwich}}{\text{Total people}}

=\dfrac{\dfrac{21}{2}}{14}\text{ feet}\\\\=\dfrac{21}{2\times14}\text{ feet}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{2\times2}\text{ feet}\\\\=\dfrac{7}{4}\text{ feet}\\\\=1\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ feet}

Hence, length of each piece = 1\dfrac{3}{4}\text{ feet}

Find the focus and directrix of the parabola with the equation x² = -22y.
Bad White [126]

9514 1404 393

Answer:

  focus: (0, -5.5)

  directrix: y = 5.5

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation compares to the form ...

  x² = 4py

where 4p = -22   ⇒   p = -22/4 = -5.5.

The value of p is the distance from the vertex to the focus. The negative value means the focus is below the vertex at (0, -5.5).

The directrix is above the vertex by the same amount, so is y = 5.5.

Which of the following is a solution of y &gt; |x| - 5? a.(4, -1)<br> B.(-1, -4)<br> C.(-4, 1)
Savatey [412]
Fill your inequality in with the y and x provided and then do the math.  (4, -1) would fill in like this (I will use brackets to indicate absolute value symbols, since there are none in the equation editor): -1\ \textgreater \ [4]-5  The right side is in fact equal to the left side so that's not the answer.  For (-1, -4): -4\ \textgreater \ [-1]-5 and these are also equal.  Let's try C now (-4, 1): 1\ \textgreater \ [-4]-5.  The absolute vale of -4 is 4 so 4 - 5 = -1 which is, in fact, less than 1.  So C is our answer.

Surface area of 8in,4in,14in
andriy [413]

Answer:

160 in^2.

Step-by-step explanation:

I guess this is a prism with 6 faces so the surface area is:

2 * 8 * 4 + 2 * 8*4 + 2*4*4

= 64 + 64 + 32

= 160 in^2.
