1. The rectangular prism is a right prism with rectangular bases (check the picture)

2. It has 8 vertices, so we are looking for 3d figures with 4 vertices.

3. A face can have at least 3 vertices, and the 4th must be outside of the plane determined by the first 3 vertices. This makes 4 vertices in total.

4. The 3d figure described in step 3 is a pyramid.

The correct answer is:

D. Triangular pyramid.

The three-dimensional figure that has half the number of vertices as the rectangular prism is a triangular pyramid.

amber deposits $870 in an account that has a simple interest rate of 8% per year. After 5 years, how much interest will Amber ha

charle [14.2K]

For simple interest, the formula is I = PRT, where I = interest, P = principal borrowed or deposited, R = rate as a decimal, and T = time in years.

Your information:
I = (870)(0.08)(5)
I = 348

Add the interest to the principal for your total balance

348 + 870 = $1218 will be the total balance in the account.

Question:

Britney throws an object straight up into the air with an initial velocity of 27 ft/s from a platform that is 10 ft above the ground. Use the formula h(t)=−16t2+v0t+h0 , where v0 is the initial velocity and h0 is the initial height. How long will it take for the object to hit the ground?

1s 2s 3s 4s

Answer:

It takes 2 seconds for object to hit the ground

Solution:

The given equation is:

$h(t) = -16t^2 + v_0t+h_0$

Initial velocity = 27 feet/sec

$h_0 = 10\ feet$

Therefore,

$h(t) = -16t^2 +27t+10$

At the point the object hits the ground, h(t) = 0

$-16t^2 +27t+10 = 0\\\\16t^2-27t-10=0$

Solve by quadratic formula,

$\mathrm{For\:a\:quadratic\:equation\:of\:the\:form\:}ax^2+bx+c=0\mathrm{\:the\:solutions\:are\:}\\\\x=\frac{-b\pm \sqrt{b^2-4ac}}{2a}\\\\\mathrm{For\:}\quad a=16,\:b=-27,\:c=-10:\quad \\\\t=\frac{-\left(-27\right)\pm \sqrt{\left(-27\right)^2-4\cdot \:16\left(-10\right)}}{2\cdot \:16}\\\\t = \frac{27 \pm \sqrt{1369}}{32}\\\\t = \frac{27 \pm 37}{32}\\\\We\ have\ two\ solutions\\\\t = \frac{27+37}{32}\\\\t = \frac{64}{32}\\\\t = 2\\\\And\\\\t = \frac{27-37}{32}\\\\t = -0.3125$

Ignore, negative value

Thus, it takes 2 seconds for object to hit the ground
