6. Find the equation of the line perpendicular to y=2 through (1,5). * A. y 2 B.X D.X=2 耕

Maru [420]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

To convert the measurements of metric system into another units of metric system we have to either multiply it by 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000, etc or divide by 10, 100, 1000, 10000, 100000, etc.

If we have to convert bigger unit into smaller unit then we have to multiply the unit by the multiples of 10, then the decimal point is shifted to right by 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 , etc. places.

For example, 1.2 kg is converted into g so we have to multiply it by 1000, so decimal point is shifted to right by 3 places, i.e.,

1.2 x 1000 = 1200 g

If we have to convert smaller unit into bigger unit then we have to divide the unit by the multiples of 10, then the decimal point is shifted to left by 1 or 2 or 3 or 4 , etc. places.

For example, 12 cm is converted into m so we have to divide it by 100, so decimal point is shifted to left by 2 places, i.e.,

12 / 100 = 0.12 m

How do u write 4 1/4 in simplest form and not in decimals I haven't learned that yet .

alexandr1967 [171]

It already is in simplest form because the numerator and denonimator don't have a common factor to then divide them by.

Find the dimensions of the open rectangular box of maximum volume that can be made from a sheet of cardboard 11 in. by 7 in. by

11111nata11111 [884]

Answer:

The dimension of the open rectangular box is $8.216\times 4.216\times 1.392$ .

The volume of the box is 8.217 cubic inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : The open rectangular box of maximum volume that can be made from a sheet of cardboard 11 in. by 7 in. by cutting congruent squares from the corners and folding up the sides.

To find : The dimensions and the volume of the open rectangular box ?

Solution :

Let the height be 'x'.

The length of the box is '11-2x'.

The breadth of the box is '7-2x'.

The volume of the box is $V=l\times b\times h$

$V=(11-2x)\times (7-2x)\times x$

$V=4x^3-36x^2+77x$

Derivate w.r.t x,

$V'(x)=4(3x^2)-2(36x)+77$

$V'(x)=12x^2-72x+77$

The critical point when V'(x)=0

$12x^2-72x+77=0$

Solve by quadratic formula,

$x=\frac{18+\sqrt{93}}{6},\frac{18-\sqrt{93}}{6}$

$x=4.607,1.392$

Derivate again w.r.t x,

$V''(x)=24x-72$

Now, $V''(4.607)=24(4.607)-72=38.568>0$ (+ve)

$V''(1.392)=24(1.392)-72=-38.592$ (-ve)

So, there is maximum at x=1.392.

The length of the box is $l=11-2x$

$l=11-2(1.392)=8.216$

The breadth of the box is $b=7-2x$

$b=7-2(1.392)=4.216$

The height of the box is h=1.392.

The dimension of the open rectangular box is $8.216\times 4.216\times 1.392$ .

The volume of the box is $V=l\times b\times h$

$V=8.216\times 4.216\times 1.392$

$V=48.217\ in.^3$

The volume of the box is 8.217 cubic inches.

What is the area of this composite figure?

Gelneren [198K]

Answer:

249 centimeters squared

Step-by-step Explanation:

The area of the rectangle: l x w, where l is the length and w is the width.

= 15.5 x 18

= 279

Area of the smaller rectangle: l x w, where l is the length and w is the width.

= 4 x 7.5

= 30

We do not need this 30.

Area of the shaded region:

= 279 - 30

= 249 cm²

an employee adds 160 fluid ounces of chemical to a feature that holds 120,000 gallons of water. did the employee add yhe correct

Hitman42 [59]

We are given a volume of 160 fluid ounces of chemical which is added to a container that holds 120,000 gallons of water. Assuming that the chemical has the same density as water, we just need to convert 120,000 gallons to ounces.

A conversion factor is taken from literature, 1 gallon is equivalent to 128 fluid ounces. So 160 fluid ounces is only 1.25 gallons, thus occupying minimal space in the container. The employee could add more of the chemical in the container. He can actually add 15360000 fluid ounces in total.
