Answer:

The volume of the second rectangular  prism is  576 cm³ .

Step-by-step explanation:

As given

The volume of a rectangular prism varies jointly with the length and width when the height remains constant.

Let us assume that the length is denoted by L .

Let us assume that the Breadth is denoted by B.

Thus

V \propto L\times B

V = L × B ×  H

where H is the constant of variation

The volume of a rectangular prism is 672 cubic centimeters and has a length of 8 centimeters and a width of 14 centimeters.

Volume (V) = 672 cm

Length (L) = 8 cm

Width (B) = 14 cm

Put all the values in the above

672 = 8 × 14 ×  H

672 = 112H

H = \frac{672}{112}

H = 6

As given

A second prism has a length of 12 centimeters and a width of 8 centimeters.

Length = 12 cm

Width =  8 cm

Height = 6cm

Put all the values in V = L × B ×  H .

V = 12 × 8  ×  6

V = 576 cm³

Therefore the volume of the second rectangular  prism is  576 cm³ .

The volume of the second prism is 576 cubic centimeters. Since both prisms have the same height, I solved for the height using the data given with the first prism (I got 6 centimeters for the height). And then I calculated for the volume of the second prism.

Solve using any method. All work must be shown and handwritten.
Rashid [163]

Answer:

x =  - 3

y = 1

Step-by-step explanation:

Write the system

3x - y =  - 10

x + y =  - 2

Solve by Elimination.

multiply the second equation by -3.

3x - y =  - 10

-3x   - 3y =  6

Add the Equations.

- 4y =  - 4

y = 1

Plug this back in one of the equations.

x + 1 =  - 2

x =  - 3

3+-√(-3)^2 - 4(5)(-1)
Alona [7]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Easy way to do this is step by step.  Your quadratic, from your entry, must be

5x^2-3x-1.

Step by step looks like this, one thing at a time:

x=\frac{3+\sqrt{(-3)^2-4(5)(-1)} }{2(5)} becomes

x=\frac{3+\sqrt{9-(-20)} }{10} becomes

x=\frac{3+\sqrt{9+20} }{10}

and this of course is

x=\frac{3+\sqrt{29} }{10}

Do the same with the subtraction sign to get the other solution.

If you're unsure of how to enter it into your calculator, do it step by step so you don't mess up the sign.  If you enter it incorrectly, you could end up with an imaginary number when it should be real, or a real one that should be imaginary.

Just my advice as a high school math teacher.

Using the distance formula, find the distance between two points. (6, 0) (-5, 4)
Ipatiy [6.2K]

Answer:

11.7046999

Step-by-step explanation:

using the distance formula (d=√(x₂ -x₁)² + (y₂-y₁)²), we can plug in the two points to find the distance between them:

d=√(6-(-5)² + (0-4)²

d=√(11)²+ (-4)²

d=√121+16

d=√137

d approximately equal to (≈) 11.7046999 or 11.7 or 11

Henry is making a corn grits recipe that calls for cup of corn grits for every cup of water.
Step2247 [10]

Answer:

3 cups of water

Step-by-step explanation:

Henry is making a corn grits recipe that calls for 1/4 cup of corn grits for every 1/2 cup of water. How much water will he need if he uses 1 1/2 cups of corn grits?

Expand 1/2 to 2/4, if there is 1 1/2 cups of corn grits, that means that 1/4 cups of corn grits was used 6 times, 1/2x6=3. He will need 3 cups of water
