Answer 1

Answer:

6 inches

---------------------------------

As per the diagramShortest piece = 3 inLongest piece = 9 in

The difference9 in - 3 in = 6 in
Answer 2

Answer:

Difference = 6 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given information,

→ Meg measured the length of some pieces of the wire.

Now we have to,

→ find the difference between the longest and shortest piece of wire.

Then the difference will be,

→ Longest wire - Shortest wire

→ 9 - 3

→ 6 inches

Hence, the difference is 6 inches.

What is the third term of the sequence 20 - n²

Answers

A sequence or series is the generalized form of the pattern thus the third term of the given sequence 20 - n² is 11.

What is a series?

A sequence's series is the total number of terms in the sequence.

A series follows some pattern for example if you take data set of natural numbers then there will be a sequence of that data and something will be due to that we can form that series.

As per the given sequence, 20 - n²

The 20 - n² represents the nth term of the sequence.

Thus a(n) = 20 - n²

For the third term n = 3

a(3) = 20 - (3)²

a(3) = 20 - 9 = 11

Hence "A sequence or series is the generalized form of the pattern thus the third term of the given sequence 20 - n² is 11".

In the translation T of the graph below, use the figure to describe the following transformation.

Answers

The translation T due to the transformation is (5,3)

How to describe the transformation using the figure?

Translation can be defined as movement in a straight line

Given the rule: (x,y) → (x + 3, y + 1) as seen in the image. That means  (x,y) translated to (x + 3, y + 1). This is what we use to solve this problem.

From the figure, the value of  (x, y) can be read i.e. (x, y) = (2,2)

Thus the translation will be:

(x,y) → (x + 3, y + 1)

(2,2) → (2 + 3, 2 + 1) = (5, 3)

Therefore, the  translation T of the transformation shown in the graph is (5, 3)

A carpenter needs to build a box to hold his wood screws. He has a sheet of wood that measures 18 inches by 12 inches. He then cuts equal squares from each corner. (a) Write an expression for the length, width, and height for the open box. (b) Write a function for the volume (use factored form).

Answers

The expressions for the length, width, and height are 18 - 2x, 12 - 2x, and x while the volume function is V = (12 - 2x)(18 - 2x)x

(a) How to determine the expression for the length, width, and height

From the question, we have the following parameters:

Dimension of sheet = 8 inches by 12 inches

Also from the question, we understand that:

He cuts equal squares from each corner.

The cut-out length from the sheet would represent the height of the box

Represent this cut-out length with x

So, we have

Height = x

The width and the length are then represented as

Width = Initial width - 2x

Length = Initial length - 2x

So, we have

Width = 12 - 2x

Length = 18 - 2x

(b) Write a function for the volume

The volume of a box is the product of its dimensions

In this case, we have

Width = 12 - 2x

Length = 18 - 2x

Height = x

So, we have

Volume = Width * Length * Height

Substitute the known values in the above equation So, we have the following equation

V = (12 - 2x)(18 - 2x)x

So, the volume function is V = (12 - 2x)(18 - 2x)x

a + 115 = 180

a = 180 - 115

a = 65

applying sum of angles in a triangle equal to 180, b is calculated as follows

a + b + 90 = 180 right angle triangle

a rancher has 200 feet of fencing with which to enclose two adjacent rectangular corrals (see figure). what dimensions should be used so that the enclosed area will be a maximum?

Answers

The dimension of each corral should be 25 feet in width and 33⅓ feet in length so that the enclosed area will be a maximum.

Adjacent rectengular corral has length and width with area formula as below.

A = L × W

Given:

The dimension of adjacent rectangular corrals are the same.Adjacent side = 200 feet.

Because the dimension of adjacent rectangular corrals are the same, so:

W = 4x

L = 3y

3y + 4x = 200

[tex]y = \frac{200 - 4x}{3} [/tex]

There are two adjacent rectangular corrals, so:

A = 2×L×W

[tex]A = 2 \times \frac{200 - 4x}{3} \times \: x [/tex]

A = ⅓(400x–8x²)

We can differentiate to get the maximum area:

⅓×(400x–8x²) = 0

400–16x = 0

16x = 400

x = 25 feet

Substitute x value (width) to get y value (length):

y = (200–4(25)) ÷ 3

y = (200–100) ÷ 3

y = 100 ÷ 3

The width, labelled x in the figure is 162.5 meters

How to determine the width of the rectangle?

From the question, we have the following parameters that can be used in our computation:

Length = 650 - 2x

Width = x

The area of a rectangle is the product of its dimensions

So, we have

Area = Length x Width

Substitute the known values in the above equation, so, we have the following representation

A = (650 - 2x) * x

Evaluate

A = 650x - 2x²

Differentiate and set to 0

650 - 4x = 0

So, we have

4x = 650

Divide by 4

x = 162.5

Number of ways to pick the other 8 cards from 48= 48C8

Number of ways to pick a hand of 12 from the full deck = 52C12

work out probability that the two sweets will not be the same

Answers

If sara takes two random sweets. The probability that the two sweets will not be the same is :111/190.

How to find the probability?

Probability of getting two of each sweet:

P( Liquorice) = (12/20)×(11/19)

P (Liquorice) =132/380

P (mints) =(5/20)×(4/19)

P (mints)  =20/380

P (Humbugs) =(3/20)×(2/19)

P (Humbugs) =6/380

Probability that two sweets will be the same

P(same) =132/380+20/380+6/380

P(same) =158/380

Hence,

Probability that two sweets will not be the same

P(not same) = 1- (158/380)

P(not same) =380 -158 /380

P(not same) = 222 /380

P(not same) =111 /190

Use three unit multipliers to convert 5280ft to meters

Answers

The three-unit multipliers are follows, 5280ft × 12 inches × 2.54 cm × 0.01 meter and it will be 1609.344 meters.

What is unit conversion?

To convert any unit into another is called a unit conversion.

In order to convert units, we need to care about their dimensions their dimension should not be changed.

For example conversion of a kilometer to a meter is to multiply by 1000 but meter and kilometer both unit is for distance only.

As per the given,5280ft

It is known that 1 ft = 12 inches.

5280ft = 5280 x 12 inches

It is known that 1 inch = 2.54 cm

5280 x 12 inches = 5280 x 12 x 2.54 cm

It is known that 1 cm = 0.01 meter

5280 x 12 x 2.54 cm = 5280 x 12 x 2.54 x 0.01 meter

⇒  1609.344 meters

Hence "The three-unit multipliers are as follows, 5280ft × 12 inches × 2.54 cm × 0.01 meter and it will be 1609.344 meters".
