Answer: Bethany is not correct

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of the box is the product of its three dimensions, length, width, and height. The product of a number of "inches" and a "pure number" (3 has no units given) will not be "cubic inches."

_____

As it happens, the cube-shaped box with a volume of 27 cubic inches will have a height of 3 inches and a side area of 9 square inches. The edge length of the cube is 3 inches, not 9.

The area of the circle is 132.7 square centimeters. What is the diameter
VladimirAG [237]
Equating the formula  (d is the diameter)

\pi d^2/4 = 132.7
d^2 = 132.7*4/\pi
d = \sqrt{169.044586}
d = 13.0017147331
d= 13cm

Determine which windsurfer is traveling faster. EXPLAIN YOUR REASONING 5meters per second or 720 feet per minute.
alexdok [17]
The first windsurfer is travelling faster. Solution:
1 meter = 3.28084 feet
The first surfer travels at 5 meters/second so you have to multiply 3.28084 by 5 which equals 16.4042 ft/second
There are 60 seconds in a minute so you will have to multiple 16.4042 ft/second by 60 seconds which equals 984.252 ft/minute

984.252 ft/minute > 720 ft/minute

Determine the length of the legs in the right triangle below.
Marysya12 [62]

Answer:

x = 14

Step-by-step explanation:

Using Pythagoras' identity in the right triangle

x² + x² = (14\sqrt{2} )²

2x² = 392 ( divide both sides by 2 )

x² = 196 ( take the square root of both sides )

x = \sqrt{196} = 14

Thus the congruent legs are 14 cm
