Megan wants to estimate the volume of the box shown below. Which is the best estimate?

Can someone help me please and thank you

Find the ratio of the two similar sides that both dimensions are given.

The smaller triangle aide that is 4 units is the similar side of the larger triangle given as 8 units.

8 / 4 =2, this means the larger triangle is 2 times the size of the smaller triangle, which also means the smaller triangle is 1/2 the size of the larger triangle.

X on the smaller triangle is 1/2 11 units which equals 5.5 units.

Y is 2 times 3, which equals 6 units.

x = 5.5

y = 6

In △ABC, ∠ABC = 60○

A given shape that is bounded by three sides and has got three internal angles is referred to as a triangle. Thus the value of PB is 8.0 units.

A given shape that is bounded by three sides and has got three internal angles is referred to as a triangle. Types of triangles include right angle triangle, isosceles triangle, equilateral triangle, acute angle triangle, etc. The sum of the internal angles of any triangle is $180^{o}$ .

In the given question, point P is such that <APB = <APC = <BPC = $120^{o}$ . Also, line PB bisects <ABC into two equal measures. Thus;

<ABP = $30^{o}$

Thus,

<ABP + <APB + <BAP = $180^{o}$

30 + 120 + <BAP = $180^{o}$

<BAP = $180^{o}$ - 150

<BAP = $30^{o}$

Apply the Sine rule to determine the value of PB, such that;

$\frac{AP}{Sin B}$ = $\frac{BP}{Sin30}$

$\frac{8}{Sin30}$ = $\frac{BP}{Sin 30}$

BP = $\frac{8*Sin30}{Sin 30}$

= $\frac{4}{0.5}$

BP = 8.0

Therefore, the value of BP = 8 units.

A scientist removed a sample of 39.1 grams of a chemical from a container. The sample was 5 3/4 grams less than 3/10 of the tota

Oksanka [162]

The first thing we must do for this case is to define variables:

x: the total mass of the chemical in the container

y: a sample of a chemical from a container

We have the following equation:

y = (3/10) x - 5 3/4

Then, for y = 39.1 we have:

39.1 = (3/10) x - 5 3/4

Clearing x:

(3/10) x = 39.1 + 5 3/4

(3/10) x = 44.85

x = (10/3) * (44.85)

x = 149.5 grams

Answer:

the total mass in grams of the chemical in the container before the scientist removed the sample of 39.1 grams was:

x = 149.5 grams.

Identify the equation of a line in point-slope form that passes through the point (-3,4) with a slope of -2

vova2212 [387]

Answer:

y = -2x - 2

Step-by-step explanation:

y = Mx + c

4 = -2(-3)+ c

4 =6+ c

c = -2

Find the answer to each trigonometric function below.

Airida [17]

Answer:

Sin A = $\frac{opposite}{hypotenuse} =\frac{32}{40} =\frac{4(8)}{5(8)} =\frac{4}{5}$
Cos C = $\frac{adjacent}{hypotenuse} =\frac{16}{34}=\frac{2(8)}{2(17)} =\frac{8}{17}$
Tan A = $\frac{opposite}{adjacent} =\frac{21}{20}$
