Find the width of the rectangular prism when the surface area is 208 centimeters

Use the surface area formula of a rectangular prism to find the width. (I have changed it to use the same terms given in the problem).


A

=

2

(

d

w

+

h

w

+

h

d

)


Because of the given information, it is known that:


A

=

208


h

=

8


d

=

6


The width is not know, so let it keep it's variable

w

. But substitute the other values into the equation:


A

=

2

(

d

w

+

h

w

+

h

d

)


208

=

2

[

6

w

+

8

w

+

(

8

)

(

6

)

]


208

=

2

(

14

w

+

48

)


Use the distributive property to solve the right side of the equal sign:


208

=

2

(

14

w

+

48

)


208

=

28

w

+

96


112

=

28

w


112

28

=

w


4

=

w


The width is

4

.

Gisselle has 1/2 of a candy bar. She role off 1/2 of what she had. She then took the piece she broke off and split it into three
saul85 [17]

Answer:

\frac{1}{12}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

Gisselle has 1/2 of a candy bar.

She role off 1/2 of what she had and split it into three equal pieces.

Question asked:

What fraction of a candy bar was each piece?

Solution:

Gisselle has = \frac{1}{2} \ of \ a \ candy \ bar

She role off = \frac{1}{2} \ of \ what\ she \ had

                     =\frac{1}{2}  \ of\  \frac{1}{2}\\=\frac{1}{2} \times \frac{1}{2}\\\\=\frac{1}{4}

As she split it into three equal pieces, we will divided it by 3, we get,

\frac{1}{4} \div3\\\frac{1}{4}\times\frac{1}{3}

\frac{1}{12}

Therefore, fraction of a candy bar of each piece is \frac{1}{12}

If a = 4 ft, c = 13 ft, and m∠B = 17°, what is the approximate area of ABC?
andre [41]

Answer:

7.6 ft² ( to 1 dec. place )

Step-by-step explanation:

given 2 sides of a triangle and the angle between them, the area (A) is calculated using the formula

A = \frac{1}{2}ac sin B

   = 0.5 × 4 × 13 × sin 17° ≈ 7.6
