Answer:
87 packages
Step-by-step explanation:
First we need to find the volume of the cone-shaped vase.
The volume of a cone is given by:
V_cone = (1/3) * pi * radius^2 * height
With a radius of 9 cm and a height of 28 cm, we have:
V_cone = (1/3) * pi * 9^2 * 28 = 2375.044 cm3
Each package of sand is a cube with side length of 3 cm, so its volume is:
V_cube = 3^3 = 27 cm3
Now, to know how many packages the artist can use without making the vase overflow, we just need to divide the volume of the cone by the volume of the cube:
V_cone / V_cube = 2375.044 / 27 = 87.9646 packages
So we can use 87 packages (if we use 88 cubes, the vase would overflow)

Answer:
7. d. l = 6.48 cm, w = 6.48 cm
8. d. square
Step-by-step explanation:
For a given area, the perimeter can always be shortened by reducing the length of the long side and increasing the length of the short side. When you get to the point where you can't do that, then you have the minimum perimeter. You will reach that point when the sides are the same length: the rectangle is a square.
__
7. In light of the above, the best dimensions are √42 ≈ 6.48 cm for length and width.
__
8. In light of the above, the shape is a square.
_____
The attached graph shows the length of one side (x) and the associated perimeter. The other side is 42/x, which will also be 6.48.

Answer:
f(x) = -4x^2 +48x -129
Step-by-step explanation:
It usually works well to compute the square first. That is, simplify according to the order of operations.
f(x) = -4(x^2 -12x +36) +15
f(x) = -4x^2 +48x -144 +15
f(x) = -4x^2 +48x -129
Answer:
y = -2/13
Step-by-step explanation:
-5 + 13y = -7
Add 5 to each side
-5+5 + 13y = -7+5
13y = -2
Divide by 13
13y/13 = -2/13
y = -2/13
Answer:
{d,b}={4,3}
Step-by-step explanation:
[1] 11d + 17b = 95
[2] d + b = 7
Graphic Representation of the Equations :
17b + 11d = 95 b + d = 7
Solve by Substitution :
// Solve equation [2] for the variable b
[2] b = -d + 7
// Plug this in for variable b in equation [1]
[1] 11d + 17•(-d +7) = 95
[1] -6d = -24
// Solve equation [1] for the variable d
[1] 6d = 24
[1] d = 4
// By now we know this much :
d = 4
b = -d+7
// Use the d value to solve for b
b = -(4)+7 = 3
Solution :
{d,b} = {4,3}
