Corry collects cube containers. She fills them with water and pours them into a rectangular prism. She was playing with them and

discovered something interesting. She had three cube containers. One cube was 1 inch by 1 inch by 1 inch. A second cube was 2 inches by 2 inches by 2 inches and a third cube was 3 inches by 3 inches by 3 inches.She filled all three with water. Then Corry poured all three cubes into a rectangular prism filling it exactly! The rectangular prism has a square base with a side length (1+2+3 = 6) inches and the height is 1 inch.Corry wonders whether she has found a pattern. Investigate using more cube containers to fill square base prisms with heights of 1 in. Describe any conjectures you discover.

Answer:

  \displaystyle\sum_{i=1}^n{i^3}=\left(\sum_{i=1}^n{i}\right)^2

Step-by-step explanation:

The only sum of three cubes that has a total equal to the square of the sum of their dimensions is the one Corry found.

However, we notice that ...

  1³ +2³ +3³ +4³ = (1 +2 +3 +4)² = 100

If we add the next number in sequence, we get ...

  100 +5³ = 225 = (10 +5)²

  225 +6³ = 441 = (15 +6)²

So, it seems that the sum of the first n cubes is equal to the square of the sum of the first n natural numbers.

Answer:

  (h, k) = (9, -8)

Step-by-step explanation:

The function g(x) is "vertex form" for a quadratic whose vertex is (h, k). We are told the vertex is (9, -8), so we have ...

WILL MARK AS BRAINLIEST PLZ HELP
nignag [31]
The formula is
I=prt
I interest earned 14.65
P initial deposit ?
R interest rate 0.025
T time 2 years
Plug in the formula
14.65=p×0.025×2
Solve for p
14.65=0.05p
Divide both sides by 0.05
P=14.65/0.05
P=293....answer

Hope it helps!

A box contains cards bearing numbers from 6 to 70. If one card is drawn at random from the box, find the probability that it bea
777dan777 [17]

Answer:

a) 4/65 b) 13/65 c) 12/65 d) 19/65

Step-by-step explanation:

Probability is the likelihood or chance that an event might occur.

Probability = expected outcome of event/Total outcome of event

If a box contains cards bearing numbers from 6 to 70, the total outcome will be the total number present from 6 to 70 which is 65

a) The amount of one digit number we have are 4 i.e {6,7,8,9}. This will be our expected outcome in this case.

The probability that the number drawn bears a one digit number will be 4/65

b) For numbers divisible by 5, the numbers that are divisible by 5 from the number drawn are {10, 15, 20, 25, 30, 35, 40, 45, 50, 55, 60, 65, 70}

The total expected outcome in this case = 13

The probability that the number drawn is divisible by 5 = 13/65

c) For odd numbers less than 30, they are {7,9,11,13,15,17,19,21,23,25,27,29}

The total expected outcome in this case = 12

The probability that the number drawn are odd numbers less than 30 = 12/65

d) For composite number between 50 and 70, this are numbers that are within this range and they includes {51,52,53,54,55,56,57,58,59,60,61,62,63,64,65,66,67,68,69}

The total expected outcome in this case = 19

The probability that the number drawn are composite numbers between 50 and 70= 19/65
