Marci needs to rent a storage unit. She needs to determine the volume of the storage unit to decide if the storage unit is big e

stealth61 [152]

Answer:

$Volume = 176ft^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

$Height = 8$

See attachment for base dimension

Required

Determine the volume of the storage unit

From the attachment, we can split the base dimension into two rectangles.

CDEF and ABCG

And the dimensions are:

CDEF

$EF = CD = BD - BC = 5 - 2 = 3$

$ED = FC = FG +AB = 4 + 2 =6$

So, the area of CDEF is:

$Area = EF * ED$

$Area = 3 * 6$

$Area = 18$

ABCG

$AB= GC = 2$

$AG = BC = 2$

$Area = AB * AG$

$Area = 2 * 2$

$Area = 4$

So, the base area is:

$Base\ Area = 18 + 4$

$Base\ Area = 22$

The volume is then calculated as:

$Volume = Base\ Area * Height$

$Volume = 22 * 8$

$Volume = 176$

Pls can someone help me and have it right

dangina [55]

Answer:

Problem 1:

a. x=2

b. x=3

c. x=1

Problem 2:

A multiplication equation to hold the table true:

$18\times3=54$

A division equation to hold the table true:

$\frac{54}{3} =18$

Step-by-step explanation:

Given in problem 1:

(a). The equation is $\frac{x}{6} > 1$

It holds true for all values of $x> 6$ .

Let us say $x=12$ ,

$\frac{x}{6}=\frac{12}{6} =2$ which is greater than 1.

(b). The equation is $\frac{x}{6} < 1$

It holds true for all values of $x< 6$ .

Let us say $x=3$

$\frac{x}{6} =\frac{3}{6} =\frac{1}{2}$ which is less than 1.

(c). The equation is $\frac{x}{6} = 1$

It holds true for only $x= 6$ .

Let us say $x=6$ ,

$\frac{x}{6} =\frac{6}{6}=1$ which is equal to 1.

Problem 2:

A multiplication equation to hold the table true:

$18\times3=54$

A division equation to hold the table true:

$\frac{54}{3} =18$

Therefore these are the values which hold true to the equation in problem 1 and 2.

Two pitchers, Jerry and Louis, want to find out who has the faster pitch when compared to each of their teams. Jerry has a speed

saul85 [17]

Answer:

Louis has faster pitch when compared to each of their teams.

Step-by-step explanation:

We have two pitchers which we need to compare to each of their teams.

To calculate this, we will approximate the distributions to a normal distribution, and calculate the z-score, to know what proportion of players of their team fall below their score.

For Jerry, he has a speed of 86 and his team has a mean speed of 93 and standard deviation of 3.

We can calculate the z-score for Jerry speed as:

$z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{86-93}{3}=\dfrac{-7}{3}= -2.333$

The proportion of players that are below Jerry speed is approximated by the standard normal distribution:

$p=\Phi(z$

For Louis, his speed is 84 and his team has a mean speed of 89 and standard deviation of 3.5.

We can calculate the z-score for Jerry speed as:

$z=\dfrac{X-\mu}{\sigma}=\dfrac{84-89}{3.5}=\dfrac{-5}{3.5}= -1.429$

The proportion of players that are below Louis speed is approximated by the standard normal distribution:

$p=\Phi(z$

As the proportion of players of Louis team that are below Louis speed is much bigger than the proportion of players of Jerry's team that are below Jerry speed, we can say that Louis has faster pitch when compared to each of their teams.

An arithmetic sequence is represented by the recursive formula a1=17an=an−1−8 . What is the fourth term in the sequence? a4=−4 a

user100 [1]

Answer:

a₄ = - 15

Step-by-step explanation:

Using the recursive formula and a₁ = 17 , then

a₂ = a₁ - 8 = 17 - 8 = 9

a₃ = a₂ - 8 = 9 - 8 = 1

a₃ = a₂ - 8 = 1 - 8 = - 7

a₄ = a₃ - 8 = - 7 - 8 = - 15
