The length of a log of wood is 90 in. How many cuts do you need to make to obtain
the greatest number of pieces, where each piece will have a different length and the
length of each piece is a whole number, in inches?

Answers

Answer 1

The greatest number of pieces will be 12 where each piece will have a different length and the length of each piece is a whole number, in inches and the remaining piece length will be 12 in(90 - 78).

What is a sequence?

It is defined as the systematic way of representing the data that follows a certain rule of arithmetic.

The total length of the wood = 90 in

We have to cut it into the greatest number of pieces, where each piece will have a different length and the length of each piece is a whole number, in inches.

We can cut it like:

1 in, 2 in, 3 in, 4 in, and so on

The above shows the arithmetic sequence,

The sum of the n natural number is given by:

[tex]\rm S_n = \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2}[/tex]

[tex]\rm 90 = \dfrac{n(n+1)}{2}[/tex]

After solving, we will get a quadratic equation:

n² + n -180 = 0

After solving, we will get:

n = 12.92 and n = -13.92(term can not be negative)

n = 12 (taking whole number)

Thus, the greatest number of pieces will be 12 where each piece will have a different length and the length of each piece is a whole number, in inches and the remaining piece length will be 12 in(90 - 78).

What are the trigonometric ratios of in a right triangle with the given value tan A = 9/40

Answers

The trigonometric ratios of the right triangle with the given value tan A = 9 / 40 are

sin A = 9 / 41

cos A = 40 / 41

Trigonometric ratios

Trigonometric ratios are used to solve for the sides and angles of a right angle triangle.

Therefore,

sin A = opposite / hypotenuse

cos A = adjacent / hypotenuse

tan A = opposite / adjacent

Using Pythagoras theorem, let find the hypotenuse side

c² = 40² + 9²

c = √1681

c = 41

Therefore,

sin A = 9 / 41

cos A = 40 / 41

Answers

Answer:

x=7

Step-by-step explanation:

x(x-2) (x+4) =385

distribute the x and solve

The value of x is 8 in.

What is a prism?

A prism is a three-dimensional object.

There are triangular prism and rectangular prism.

We have,

Length = x + 4

Width = x

Height = x - 2

The volume of the rectangular prism = 385 in³

The volume of the rectangular prism = length x width x height

Now,

length x width x height = 385

(x + 4) x (x - 2) = 385

(x + 4) (x² - 2x) = 385

x³ - 2x² + 4x² - 8x = 385

x³ + 2x² - 8x = 385

This is a cubic polynomial.

f(x) = x³ + 2x² - 8x - 385

f(x) = a³ + bx² + cx + d = 0

Using the calculator we get,

Roots:

x = -3.20181 + 5.96339 i (rejected)

x = -3.20181 - 5.96339 i (rejected)

x = 8.40362 = 8

Thus,

The value of x is 8 in.

a = 360° - 310°

a = 50°

Now...

here b and 180° are supplementary angle so ....

b = 180° - 80°

b = 100°

Again...

The sum of all angle of triangle is 180° so...

100° + 50° + c = 180°

150° + c = 180°

c = 180° - 150°

The resulting ordered pair if the value of the independent variable is –2 will be B. (-2, -4).

How to solve the variable?

From the information given, it was stated that we should calculate the resulting ordered pair if the value of the independent variable is –2.

Therefore, in this case, x = -2. Therefore, we will play it into the equation. This will be:

f(x)=2x³ +3x²

= 2(-2)³ + 3(-2)²

= -16 + 12

= -4

Therefore, the ordered pair will be (-2, -4).

In 2017, a chocolate bar had a mass of 250g.

In 2018, the mass of the chocolate bar was reduced to 220g.

The difference in mass is 250 - 220 = 30g

30 / 250 = 0.12 which is how much out of the 250g

0.12 x 100 = 12

Answers

Step-by-step explanation:

the extreme values (minimum, maximum) of a function are the zero points of the first derivation of the function.

so,

f'(x) = 2x + b

and then

2x + b = 0

we know, x = 20 for the minimum

2×20 + b = 0

40 + b = 0

b = -40

therefore, the actual function is

f(x) = x² - 40x + 164

the target format is

f(x) = (x - h)² + k = x² - 2hx + h² + k

so,

-40x = -2hx

-40 = -2h

h = 20

and

h² + k = 164

20² + k = 164

400 + k = 164

k = -236

What is a pyramid?

A pyramid is a polyhedron built by connecting a polygonal base and a point known as the top. A lateral face is formed by the base edge and top of each triangle.

The volume of a pyramid is given by the formula,

Volume of the pyramid = (Length×Width×Height)/3

                                       = (Area of base ×Height)/3

If the area of the base of the two pyramids is the same, then the ratio of the volume of the two pyramids will be,

[tex]\dfrac{\text{Volume of Pyramid A}}{\text{Volume of Pyramid B}} = \dfrac{60\rm\ mm^3}{937.5\rm\ mm^3}\\\\\\\dfrac{3 \times \text{(Area of base})_a \times h_a}{3 \times \text{(Area of base})_b \times h_b}= \dfrac{60}{937.5}\\\\\\\dfrac{h_a}{h_b} = 0.064[/tex]

Hence, the ratio of the height of pyramid A to pyramid B is 0.064.
