Answer:
1. a) Square
2. c) Rectangle
Step-by-step explanation:
1. If you cut this rectangular prism in way to be PERPENDICULAR to the base, that means you're cutting it straight down, from the top to the bottom, in a vertical line. The cross-section obtained will be just like an end of the prism, which in this case is a square. Because it's a regular rectangular prism, no matter where you cut it, as long as it's vertical, perpendicular to the base, you'll get a square due to this particular form. Technically, the answer could also be a rectangle, since a square is a rectangle.
2. you cut this rectangular prism in way to be PARALLEL to the base, that means you're cutting it straight, from the front to the back, in an horizontal line. The cross-section obtained will be just like an top of the prism, which in this case is a rectangle. Because it's a regular rectangular prism, no matter where you cut it, as long as it's an horizontal line, parallel to the base, you'll get a rectangle due to this particular form.
<u>Part A</u>
<u />
<u>Part B</u>
The vertex of the graph will be a maximum because the leading coefficient is negative.
The x coordinate of the vertex is 
.
When x=15/8, 
.
So, the vertex has coordinates 
<u>Part C</u>
Plot the two x-intercepts and the vertex and then draw a curve in the shape of a parabola passing through them.
The graph is in the attached image.
Answer: 14
Step-by-step explanation:
Okay so it asks in all, which means morning distance + afternoon distance
We got the afternoon distance so now we have to find the morning one
it says the afternoon distance (6), is 25% less than the morning distance.
Which means the afternoon distance is 0.75 of the morning distance.
so 0.75x = 6, x = 6/0.75 = 8
Then you add 8 to 6 to get 14
