How many 1-inch cubes will fit into a 3 and 1/2 in rectangular prism?

1 answer:

7 0

Suppose the height of the prism is 1 in, then the volume will be:
volume=length×width×height
thus
volume of the prism will be:
V=3×1/2×1
V=1.5 in³

Volume of the cube will be:
v=1×1×1=1 in³
Thus the number of cubes that will be in the prism will be:
(1.5 in³)/(1 in³)
=1.5 cubes~2 cubes

The base of a solid in the region bounded by the two parabolas y2 = 8x and x2 = 8y. Cross sections of the solid perpendicular to

Usimov [2.4K]

The two curves intersect at two points, (0, 0) and (8, 8):

$x^2=8y\implies y=\dfrac{x^2}8$

$y^2=\dfrac{x^4}{64}=8x\implies\dfrac{x^4}{64}-8x=0\implies\dfrac{x(x-8)(x^2+8x+64)}{64}=0$

$\implies x=0,x=8\implies y=0,y=8$

The area of a semicircle with diameter $d$ is $\dfrac{\pi d^2}8$ . The diameter of each cross-section is determined by the vertical distance between the two curves for any given value of $x$ between 0 and 8. Over this interval, $y^2=8x\implies y=\sqrt{8x}$ and $\sqrt{8x}>\dfrac{x^2}8$ , so the volume of this solid is given by the integral

$\displaystyle\frac\pi8\int_0^8\left(\sqrt{8x}-\dfrac{x^2}8\right)^2\,\mathrm dx=\frac{288\pi}{35}$

A skier is trying to decide whether or not to buy a season ski pass. A daily pass costs $68. A season ski pass costs $300. The

lina2011 [118]

first, ignore the rent for the skies. we could add it to both, but since it's the same, it would not change the number of days here.

this information is meant to test your decision making on what's important for the question.

now just ask how often you can pay $68 dollars per day while staying below 300 in total, you can just count it up.

68, 136, 204, 272, 340

its 4 days

for 5 days or more, the season pass is the better option

Find f (0) and find x when f (x) =4

Anuta_ua [19.1K]

At x = 0, y-coordinate is at -4 so that means f(0) = -4

Now for f(x) = 4, we need to find any x-coordinates such that y-coordinates is 4.

There are two possible answer: x = -8 and x = 8

So x = -8, 8

Hope this helps.
