1. A rectangular box has dimensions 4 feet by 3 feet by 5 feet. Increasing each
dimension by the same amount yields a new box with twice the volume of
the old box. Determine the new dimensions of the box.

Answers

Answer 1

The new dimensions of the box are 5 feet, 4 feet, and 6 feet.

Given:

A rectangular box has dimensions of 4 feet by 3 feet by 5 feet.

So, Length = 4 feet ,width = 3 feet and height = 5 feet.

Volume of rectangular box = length × width × height

                                             = 4 × 3 × 5 = 60 feet³

Now, increasing each dimension by the same amount yields a new box.

Let the increase in dimension be x feet.

The dimensions of the new box are,

Length = (4 + x) feet ,width = (3 + x) feet and height = (5 + x) feet.

Volume of new box = length × width × height

                                 = (4 + x) (3 + x) (5 + x)

It is given that the volume of the new box is twice the volume of the old box, 2 × 60 feet³ = 120 feet³

So, equate the volume to find the value of x.

(4 + x) (3 + x) (5 + x) = 120    

(12 + 7x + x²) (5 + x) = 120

60 + 12x + 35x + 7x² + 5x² + x³ = 120

60 + 47x + 12x² + x³ = 120

x³ + 12x² + 47x - 60 = 0  

x = 1

Hence each dimension was increased by 1 foot.

The new dimensions of the box are 5 feet, 4 feet, and 6 feet.

What is a midpoint of line segment?

The midpoint is halfway between the two end points, Its x value is halfway between the two x values. Its y value is halfway between the two y values.

Given that,

Part 1, If B is between A and C then AB + BC = AC

Then, we need to find the conclusion in Part 2 if Q is between R and S.

The required conclusion can be find out by using the concept of deductive reasoning.

Deductive reasoning involves a pattern which is followed in one argument and by following the same pattern we reach to a conclusion for some other argument.

Now, If we see in Part 1 if B is between A and C then the length of line segment AC is equal to sum of its mid segments AB and BC

⇒ AB + BC = AC

Similarly, if Q is between R and S, then the length of line segment RS is equal to sum of its mid segments RQ and QS

⇒ RS = RQ + QS

Hence, The required Conclusion is RS = RQ + QS.

Rectangle MATH was translated 7 units to the left and 4 urlits down to create rectangle M'ATH'. Which rule describes this transformation?

Answers

The rectangle MATH is translated by using the transformation rule P'(x, y) = (x - 7, y - 4) to create the rectangle M'A'T'H'.

What is the resulting rule transformation for the translation of a rectangle?

In this problem we have the case of a rectangle, a geometric locus, that is translated both horizontally (7 units to the left) and vertically (4 units down). Vectorially speaking, a translation is represented by the following vector sum:

P'(x, y) = P(x, y) + T(x, y)     (1)

Where:

P(x, y) - Original point.P'(x, y) - Resulting point.T(x, y) - Translation vector.

If we know that P(x, y) = (x, y) and T(x, y) = (- 7, - 4), then the transformation rule is derived below:

P'(x, y) = (x, y) + (- 7, - 4)

P'(x, y) = (x - 7, y - 4)

The rectangle MATH is translated by making use the transformation rule P'(x, y) = (x - 7, y - 4).

A bakery made 9 cakes using 3 bags of flour. The bakery uses the same relationship between cakes made and the amount of flour used to make all their cakes.

Which table of values shows the relationship between the number of cakes the bakery makes and the number of bags of flour the bakery uses?

Answers

The table of values showing the relationship between the number of cakes the bakery makes and the number of bags of four the bakery uses is:

Cakes           |   3    6     9     12      15

Bags of flour|   1     2     3      4        5

A bakery made 9 cakes using 3 bags of flour.

We can introduce a relation between the number of cakes and the bags of flour in the form of a ratio.

Then, cakes : bags of flour = 9 : 3

We can simplify this ratio into 3:1.

So the ratio between the number of cakes and bags of flour = 3:1

We take values for number of bags of flour from 1 to 5 and found the corresponding values for number of cakes using the ratio 3:1.

For each value of number of bags of flour, we just needed to multiply 3 with it to get the number of cakes made.

So using this relationship between cakes made and the amount of flour used to make all their cakes, we can makes table with values:

Cakes           |   3    6     9     12      15

Bags of flour|   1     2     3      4        5

                           = 0.8cm

Parallel sides of the trapezium

side1 = 0.8cm

side 2= 3cm

Let x represents the height

Ratio of the height of rectangle ,trapezium and triangle =2:3:2

2x +3x+2x =3.5

⇒7x =3.5

⇒x =0.5

Height of rectangle =2×0.5

                             = 1cm

Height of trapezium =3×0.5

                               = 1.5cm

Height of the triangle =2×0.5

                                 = 1cm

Area of triangle = (1/2)× 0.8 ×1

                        = 0.4cm²

Area of trapezium = (1/2) ×(0.8+3)×1.5

Answers

Answer:

first choice in the image.

numerator: 12

denominator: 30

Step-by-step explanation:

"Name the numerator and denominator of the fraction that represents the number of trucks that he has loaded out of the total needing to be loaded"

so numerator = "number of trucks that he has loaded"

and denominator = "total needing to be loaded"

Joaquin was asked to load 30 trucks today. So his/her total would be 30.

thus the denominator is 30.

Joaquin has finished loading 12 already, which means he/she has loaded 12. so, the numerator is 12.

the equation of a line in slope- intercept form is

y = mx + c ( m is the slope and c the y- intercept )

y = - x + 9 ← is in slope- intercept form

with slope m = - 1

• Parallel lines have equal slopes , then

y = - x + c ← is the partial equation of the parallel line

to find c substitute (7, - 13 ) into the partial equation

- 13 = - 7 + c ⇒ c = - 13 + 7 = - 6

Now, more than 5000 years after ancient cultures first began to mine this precious metal, an average of 671 million troy ounces is mined every year. In earlier times, silver was thought to have magical properties and it was considered to be useful in keeping bad spirits away. Nowadays, most people think of silver in relation to ornaments. But it is significant for its antibacterial properties too. The ancient Phoenicians kept water, wine and vinegar in silver vessels to ensure freshness. It is only recently, however, that scientists have discovered how silver works. Quite simply, silver destroys the ability of bacteria to form the chemical bonds which are essential to their survival. When bacteria and silver come into contact, the bacterial cells fall apart. Today, there are bandages and ointments that use silver as an active ingredient. Silver promotes the growth of new cells, which in turn increases the rate of healing. This makes silver especially valuable for treating burns and wounds. Another key use for silver is in the millions of water purifiers that are sold each year. Silver prevents bacteria from building up in filters so that they can work effectively. Research has shown that silver, together with oxygen, cleans water. This means that other chemicals, such as chlorine, do not have to be used. Silver is therefore starting to be added to water purification systems in hospitals, community water systems and swimming pools. Scientists hope that silver will be able to be used in helping to produce clean drinking water in countries where water-borne illness is a problem. Current research shows that this use of silver is an exciting development for the global water supply. In the past, silver was often used to decorate places of worship, and many people saw it when they went to pray. Today, there is probably much more silver around us, but we do not necessarily see it. For example, every time you travel in a motor vehicle you are surrounded by pieces of silver. Every electrical action in a modern car is activated with silver-coated contacts. Basic functions such as starting the engine and opening power windows .all need a special switch that has a silver covering. Another important feature for our driving safety is the silver-ceramic lines fitted into the rear window. The heat created by these lines clears the rear window of mist and ice so that we can see clearly out of it. Silver is just as valuable today as it has been throughout human history.
