The sum of two consecutive odd intergers is 32. Find the intergers.

1 answer:

4 0

So let the smaller integer be 2x+1 and the larger one be 2x+3. So 2x+1+2x+3 is 32. Simplifying, we get 4x+4=32. So subtracting 2 from both sides we get 4x+2=30. So dividing by 2 we get 2x+1=15. So 2x+3 is 17. So the numbers are 15 and 17

If the volume of a rectangular pyramid is 150 inches cubes ,what is the volume of a prism with the same demensions

Ugo [173]

$\bf \stackrel{\textit{volume of a pyramid}}{V=\cfrac{Bh}{3}}\qquad \qquad \stackrel{\textit{volume of a rectangular prism}}{V=Bh}\qquad \begin{cases} B=base~area\\ h=height \end{cases}$

so let's notice, the volume of the rectangular prism is really 3 times as much of that of a pyramid with the same Base and Height.

so if the pyramid has a volume of 150, the prism will have volume of 3*150.

The function f(t) = 7 cos(pi over 4t) + 12 represents the tide in Light Sea. It has a maximum of 19 feet when time (t) is 0 and a minimum of 5 feet. The sea repeats this cycle every 8 hours

To find the height of the tide after 2 hours, we plug in 2 for t and find out f(2)

$f(t) = 7 cos(\frac{\pi}{4})t+ 12$
