Answer:

-8, 16, -32, 64

Step-by-step explanation:

a1 = -8

r = -2

a2 = -8(-2)=16

a3 = -8(-2)²=-8(4)=-32

a4=-8(-2)³=-8(-8)=64

small cubes with edge lengths of 1/4 inch will be packed into the right rectangular prism shown.( the base is 4 1/2, the width i

ss7ja [257]

General Idea:

We need to find the volume of the small cube given the side length of the small cube as 1/4 inch.

Also we need to find the volume of the right rectangular prism with the given dimension (the height is 4 1/2, the width is 5, and the length is 3 3/4).

To find the number of small cubes that are needed to completely fill the right rectangular prism, we need to divide volume of right rectangular prism by volume of each small cube.

Formula Used:

$Volume \; of \; Cube = a^3 \; \\\{where \; a \; is \; side \; length \; of \; cube\}\\\\Volume \; of \; Right \; Rectangular \; Prism=L \times W \times H\\\{Where \; L \; is \; Length, \; W \; is \; Width, \;and \; H \; is \; Height\}$

Applying the concept:

Volume of Small Cube:

$V_{cube}= (\frac{1}{4} )^3= \frac{1}{64} \; in^3\\\\V_{Prism}= 3 \frac{3}{4} \times 5 \times 4 \frac{1}{2} = \frac{15}{4} \times \frac{5}{1} \times \frac{9}{2} = \frac{675}{8} \\\\Number \; of \; small \; cubes= \frac{V_{Prism}}{V_{Cube}} = \frac{675}{8} \div \frac{1}{64} \\\\Flip \; the \; second \; fraction\; and \; multiply \; with \; the \; first \; fraction\\\\Number \; of \; small \; cubes \;= \frac{675}{8} \times \frac{64}{1} = 5400$

Conclusion:

The number of small cubes with side length as 1/4 inches that are needed to completely fill the right rectangular prism whose height is 4 1/2 inches, width is 5 inches, and length is 3 3/4 inches is 5400

yvette earned $66.00 for 8 hours of work. lizbeth earned $68.80 working the same amount of time. how much more per hour did lizb

sergeinik [125]

The answer is lizeth earns 0.35 cents more per hour. beacuse 66 divided by 8 =8.25 then 68.80 divided by 8 is 8.60 then if you subtract 8.60-8.25 it equals 0.35
