The base area of this second rectangular prism is 51 cm²

The rectangular prism completely filled with sand has a base area of 85cm² and height of 15cm .

<h3></h3><h3> volume of a rectangular prism</h3>
  • volume = Bh

where

B = base area

h = height

Since the first rectangular prism was completely filled with sand and it completely filled the second rectangular prism, it means they both have the same volume.

Therefore,

volume of the first rectangular prism = volume of the second rectangular prism.

  • volume  = Bh
  • volume = 85 × 15
  • volume = 1275 cm³

Therefore, the base area of the second rectangular prism can be calculated as follows:

volume = Bh

1275 = 25B

B = 1275 / 25

B = 51 cm²

The manager of a warehouse would like to know how many errors are made when a product's serial number is read by a bar-code read
Bond [772]

Answer:

(a)\ \bar x =20.5

(b)\ \sigma = 14.54

Step-by-step explanation:

Given

x: 36, 14, 21, 39, 11, 2

Solving (a): The mean of the 6 samples.

This is calculated as:

\bar x = \frac{\sum x}{n}

So, we have:

\bar x =\frac{36+ 14+ 21+ 39+ 11+ 2}{6}

\bar x =\frac{123}{6}

\bar x =20.5

Solving (b): The sample standard deviation.

This is calculated using:

\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{\sum(x - \bar x)^2}{n-1}}

So, we have:

\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{(36 - 20.5)^2 + (14 - 20.5)^2 + (21 - 20.5)^2 + (39 - 20.5)^2 + (11 - 20.5)^2 + (2 - 20.5)^2}{6-1}}

\sigma = \sqrt{\frac{1057.5}{5}}

\sigma = \sqrt{211.5}

\sigma = 14.54

Linda purchased a used vehicle that depreciates under a straight line method. The initial value of the car is $7000, and the sal
makvit [3.9K]

Answer:

The value at the end of year 2 is $4400.

Step-by-step explanation:

The best approach here is to determine the expression for the line depreciation and then calculate the depreciation value at x = 2 years.

A line is given by

y = mx + b

where m is the slope and b the bias (aka y-intercept).  You can determine both directly from what is given. The slope is change in y divided by change in x. We know that over 5 years the car loses (500-7000)=-6500 in value. So, the slope is m=-6500/5 (note the negative sign). At time 0, the y-intercept is 7000, since that is the initial value (at year 0). So our line function is fully identified:

y = -\frac{6500}{5}x+7000

and gives you the value of the car in any given year. To answer the question, we now plug in 2 as value of x:

y=-\frac{6500}{5}\cdot 2 + 7000= 4400

PLEASE HELP! What is the area of triangle BCD in exact form? 35 points!
vampirchik [111]
This is a 30-60-90 triangle. The short leg is given to us as 5 

The long leg is equal to sqrt(3) times the short leg

long leg = sqrt(3)*(short leg)
long leg = sqrt(3)*5
long leg = 5*sqrt(3)

The base is 5. The height is 5*sqrt(3)
b = 5
h = 5*sqrt(3)

Use this to find the area
A = b*h/2
A = 5*5*sqrt(3)/2
A = 25*sqrt(3)/2
which is the exact area in terms of a radical

You can write it out as \frac{25\sqrt{3}}{2}

Harold uses a cone shaped feeder, with a diameter of 7.5 centimeters and a height of 3.5 centimeters, to feed his tropical fish.
Ilia_Sergeevich [38]
To find the volume of a cone you use the formula "1/3 x 3.14 x r^2 x h". Plug the formula into the problem. 1/3 x 3.14 x 3.75^2 x 3.5 =51.51. Rounded to the nearest tenth is 51.5. Hope this helps!
