A recycling bin is in the shape of a rectangular box. Find the height of the box if its length is 15 ft its width is 10 ft, and its surface area is 600 ft². (In the figure, h=height. Assume that the given surface area includes that of the top lid of the box.)​

Answers

Answer 1

Answer:

The surface area of a rectangular box is the sum of the areas of the flat rectangular faces of the box. The height is the vertical side of the box.  So the other sides are the length and width.  Try to picture a box in your head, or you can draw it on paper.

Let x = length

Let y = width

Let h = height

Using these variables, we can write an equation that represents the surface formula.

A = 2(area of bottom face) + 2(area of front face) + 2(area of side face)

A = 2xy + 2xh + 2yh

This is general equation for surface area.  All we need to do is plug in the known values into it and solve for h.

496 = 2(18)(8) + 2(18)h + 2(8)h

496 = 288 + 36h + 16h

Now it comes down to simple algebra.  Isolate the h terms and solve for h from there.

208 = 52h

Divide both sides of the equation by 52 to get your height.  I let you finish up here.

[tex]\\ \tt\hookrightarrow \dfrac{27}{50}[/tex]

Solution:

Since there is two digits on the right of the decimals, it is called "the hundredths."

=> 1 digit on the right of decimal - tenths=> 2 digits on the right of decimal - hundredths=> 3 digits on the right of decimal - thousandths=> 4 digits on the right of decimal - ten thousandths

Now, we can recite 0.54 as 54 hundredths. The word "54 hundredths" defines 54/100. Hence, Option A is correct.

how do i do this, my son is struggling and he needs help

Answers

Answer:

32

Step-by-step explanation:

angle a is the outside angle. It creates a circle that will always equal 360 degrees. Since the outside angle is 302, the inside angle must be 58 degrees (360-302). The top square angle will be 90 degrees (a square angle is always 90 degrees). Since the angles in a triangle always add up to 180 degrees, we need to add 58 and 90, and then subtract it from 180, which equals 32. So, angle x equals 32.

Answer:

x = 32°

Step-by-step explanation:

The triangle is 58°. I know this because the question stated that "a" is 302. A full circle is 360. So you can subtract 360 - 302 = 58. There is a small corner of a square in the other side of the triangle. With that we know that, that side has to be 90°. A triangle is 180° total. So we can subtract:

180 - 90 - 58 = 32

Therefore, x = 32°

You want to build a skateboard ramp that is 12 feet long and reaches a
height of 3 feet. What is the angle of elevation of the ramp? Round your
answer to the nearest tenth.

Answers

Answer:

14.0362 degrees (round to 14.0 degrees)

Step-by-step explanation:

1. Assume that the math can be deduced by the sides of a triangle due to the "sightline" nature of the problem. This is a classic trig problem you will see.

2. The base of the triangle would be 12 feet and one of the legs of the triangle will be 3 feet.

3. Arctangent will provide the angle of elevation. The equation can be written as arctan(h/b), in this case h = height and b = base.

4. The calculation will be arctan(3/12) which translates to 14 degrees which is, fortunately, the angle of elevation.

I recommend trying this method out with another example such as the angle of elevation between you and the next plane you see in the sky. For example, the height difference between you and the plane is 7 miles and the plane is x miles away. Again we can create a simple triangle to discover many interesting details.

1..A message in a bottle is floating on top of the ocean in a periodic manner. The time between periods of maximum heights is 26 seconds, and the average height of the bottle is 12 feet. The bottle moves in a manner such that the distance from the highest and lowest point is 6 feet. A cosine function can model the movement of the message in a bottle in relation to the height.


Part A: Determine the amplitude and period of the function that could model the height of the message in a bottle as a function of time, t. (5 points)


Part B: Assuming that at t = 0 the message in a bottle is at its average height and moves upwards after, what is the equation of the function that could represent the situation? (5 points)


Part C: Based on the graph of the function, after how many seconds will it reach its lowest height? (5 points)


Show/Explain answer for each Part for the answer please

Answers

Answer:

See below for answers and explanations (along with a graph attached)

Step-by-step explanation:

Part A

The amplitude of a sinusoidal function is half the distance between the maximum and the minimum. It is given to us that the distance from the highest and lowest point is 6 feet, so our amplitude is 6/2 = 3 feet

Part B

The graph's function would be in the form of [tex]y=acos(bx+c)+d[/tex] where [tex]a[/tex] is the amplitude, [tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}[/tex] is the period, [tex]-\frac{c}{b}[/tex] is the phase/horizontal shift, and [tex]d[/tex] is the average/midline.

We already know our amplitude of [tex]a=3[/tex] from part A.

Since our period is given to us as 26 seconds, then we can use the equation [tex]\frac{2\pi}{b}=26[/tex] to find [tex]b[/tex], which happens to be [tex]b=\frac{\pi}{13}[/tex].

Since the cosine function starts at its maximum and we want it to start at the average where the bottle travels up, we would need to use the cofunction identity [tex]sin(x)=cos(x-\frac{\pi}{2})[/tex] which shifts the cosine graph [tex]\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex] units to the right. This means that [tex]c=-\frac{\pi}{2}[/tex], making our phase shift [tex]-\frac{c}{b}=-\frac{-\frac{\pi}{2}}{\frac{\pi}{13}}=6.5[/tex], or 6.5 feet to the right

Our average/midline would be [tex]d=12[/tex] as given as the average height by the problem.

Therefore, the function is [tex]f(x)=3cos(\frac{\pi}{13}x-\frac{\pi}{2})+12[/tex]

Part C

Using our determined function from Part B, by looking at its graph, we see that the bottle will reach its lowest height of 9 feet after 19.5 seconds (see attached graph).

Part A

The distance from the highest and lowest point is 6 feet. Cut this in half to find the amplitude: 6/2 = 3. The amplitude represents the vertical distance from the midline (aka average height) to either the peak or valley points.

The period is 26 seconds because this is the time difference from one max height to the next max height. This is one of a few ways to measure a full cycle. Another way is from min height to the next min height.

Answers:Amplitude = 3 feetPeriod = 26 seconds

==========================================================

Part B

In this case, the template for cosine is

h = Acos(B(t-C))+D

We found the amplitude A = 3 from the previous section.

The period is T = 26 which means B = 2pi/T = 2pi/26 = pi/13

D = 12 because the average height is 12 feet. The average height is always on the midline.

We are told that t = 0 leads to h = 12, so,

[tex]h = A\cos\left(B\left(t-C\right)\right)+D\\\\h = 3\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{13}\left(t-C\right)\right)+12\\\\12 = 3\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{13}\left(0-C\right)\right)+12\\\\3\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{13}\left(-C\right)\right) = 0\\\\\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{13}C\right) = 0\\\\[/tex]

Let's isolate the C term

[tex]\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{13}C\right) = 0\\\\\frac{\pi}{13}C = \arccos(0)\\\\\frac{\pi}{13}C = \frac{\pi}{2}\\\\C = \frac{\pi}{2}*\frac{13}{\pi}\\\\C = \frac{13}{2}[/tex]

Answer:  [tex]h = 3\cos\left(\frac{\pi}{13}\left(t-\frac{13}{2}\right)\right)+12\\\\[/tex]

==========================================================

Part C

A full period is 26 seconds.

At t = 0 the bottle is at a height of 12 feet

26 seconds later, the bottle is back again at 12 feet to repeat another cycle indefinitely.

At every quarter cycle, the object is either at a min point, max point, or at the average (midline).

So every 26/4 = 6.5 seconds the object will be in one of those places.

In this case, the object starts at 12 feet, goes up to the max 15 feet when t = 6.5

Then another 6.5 seconds later it's back to the midline again. Another 6.5 seconds later (total time is now 6.5*3 = 19.5 seconds) the bottle dips down to the min height of 9 feet. You should see that (19.5, 9) is one of the infinitely many minimum points on this particular cosine curve.

Answer: 19.5 seconds

*DUE TOMORROW* please help

Answers

Answer:

Side length of first square is 10 cm

Side length of second square is 8 cm

Step-by-step explanation:

Let (x + 2) = side length of first square

Let x = side length of second square

Area of a square = (side length)²

⇒ area of first square = (x + 2)²

⇒ area of second square = x²

If the sum of their areas is 100 cm² then:

⇒ (x + 2)² + x² = 100

Expand the brackets:

⇒ x² + 4x + 4 + x² = 100

Collect and combine like terms:

⇒ 2x² + 4x + 4 = 100

Subtract 100 from both sides:

⇒ 2x² + 4x - 96 = 0

Divide both sides by 2:

⇒ x² + 2x - 48 = 0

Factor:

⇒ (x - 6)(x + 8) = 0

Therefore,

⇒ x = 6, x = -8

As distance is positive, x = 8 only.

Therefore, side length of first square is 10 cm

Side length of second square is 8 cm
