PLEASE HELP 8th GRADE MATH QUESTION OVER HERE!!!

A prism would beat a sphere in a competition because a prism has more sides and angles to outmaneuver the sphere, which is a single-sided shape with no angles.

To understand the riddle, one must consider the properties of both a prism and a sphere. A prism is a polyhedron with two congruent and parallel faces (called bases), and its sides are parallelograms.

The number of sides a prism has depends on the shape of its base. For example, a triangular prism has five faces (two triangular bases and three rectangular sides), while a hexagonal prism has eight faces (two hexagonal bases and six rectangular sides).

On the other hand, a sphere is a perfectly round geometrical object in three-dimensional space that is the surface of a ball (viz., the geometric object consisting of all points in three-dimensional space at a distance r from a central point). Unlike a prism, a sphere has no edges or vertices, and it has only one surface with no sides.

In a competition where maneuverability and the ability to approach from different angles are advantageous, a prism would have more options to outmaneuver a sphere. A prism can present multiple faces to the sphere, potentially confusing or disorienting it, while the sphere, being uniform in all directions, has no such advantage. The prism's angles and edges could also be used strategically to deflect or redirect the sphere, giving the prism a competitive edge.

Therefore, the riddle plays on the geometric properties of the two shapes to suggest that in a hypothetical competition, the prism's multiple faces and angles would allow it to outperform the sphere, which has a single continuous surface and no angles to leverage.

To find the measure of angle BAC in the given right triangle ABC, we can use the trigonometric function sine.

To find the measure of angle BAC in the given right triangle ABC, we can use the trigonometric function sine. The sine of an angle is defined as the ratio of the length of the side opposite the angle to the length of the hypotenuse. In this case, we know that the length of the side opposite angle BAC is 6.9 centimeters and the length of the hypotenuse is 12 centimeters. Therefore, we can use the equation sin(BAC) = opposite/hypotenuse to find the measure of angle BAC.

sin(BAC) = 6.9/12

BAC ≈ sin-1(6.9/12)

Using a calculator, we can find that BAC ≈ 33.24°.

Answer:

Hello there!

So, your question is

"something + something = 48"

and

"something * something = -40"

Since you didn't really give that much specific details, and you could correct me on this later, I'd say for the first one it's

47 + 1 = 48

As for the second one, it could be

-5 * 8 = - 40

OR

5 * -8 = -40

both ways are correct.

Step-by-step explanation:

Hope this helps! If you have more instructions on this question, please let me know! Instructions are very important for MATH, cause even I mess up if the instructions are not clear. :)

Answer:

960 in  (or 80 ft)

Step-by-step explanation:

First, we should convert all of the feet measurements to inches so we have equal units of measurements:

50 ft = 600 in

5 ft 4 in = 64 in

40 in = 40 in

Now we can solve this problem with a simple proportion:

h / 600   =   64 / 40

600 * 64 = 40h

38400 = 40h

960 in = h

***also h = 80 ft

By setting up a proportion of corresponding sides from similar triangles, we find that the flagpole's height is roughly 80 feet.

This is a problem of similar triangles. The flagpole and its shadow form one triangle, and the woman and her shadow form a smaller, similar triangle. Since the triangles are similar, the ratio of corresponding sides should be equal. In this case, we have:

height of the flagpole / shadow of the flagpole = height of the woman / shadow of the woman

We can plug the provided values into this equation:

height of the flagpole / 50 feet = 5.33 feet / 3.33 feet

To solve for the height of the flagpole, we cross-multiply and divide, giving us:

height of the flagpole = (5.33 feet / 3.33 feet) * 50 feet

Following that logic, the height of the flagpole is approximately 80 feet tall.

Answer:

part A) see the explanation

part B) The population in 25 years since 1970 will be one million seven hundred thousand people (1,700,000)

Step-by-step explanation:

The correct equation is

[tex]P(t)=54t+350[/tex]

Part A) what are t values when it is 1985 and 1990.

we have

[tex]P(t)=54t+350[/tex]

This is the linear equation in slope intercept form

[tex]m=54\\b=350[/tex]

where

P(t) ----> is the population, in thousands

t ---->  the time, in  years, since 1970

Remember that

t = 0 for 1970

so

For the year 1985

[tex]t=1985-1970=15\ years[/tex]

For the year 1990

[tex]t=1990-1970=205\ years[/tex]

Part B) what is p(t), when t=25?

For t=25 years

substitute the value of t in the linear equation

[tex]P(t)=54(25)+350=1,700[/tex]

Remember that the population is in thousands

That means

The population in 25 years since 1970 will be one million seven hundred thousand people (1,700,000)

Answer:

D.1/64

B.1 in 12

A.64%

Step-by-step explanation:

Each dial has 4 letters and only one of them is correct; the probability to choose the correct one is then 1/4. Selecting a letter in each dial is independent, then the probability of guessing the right combination in one try is 1/4 * 1/4 * 1/4 = 1/64

8% means a probability of 8/100 or an odds of 8 in 100. Dividing each term by 8 we get 8/8 = 1 in 100/8 = 12.5, which can be rounded to 1 in 12

80% means a probability of 80/100 = 0.8. Given that the 2 free-throws are independent, the probability that he makes both is 0.8*0.8 = 0.64 or 64%

Answer:

I guess cuz... when u have same signs u add and keep..and if different signs u subtract.. and u keep the number of the bigger number

Adding two negative fractions follows the same principle as adding two negative integers: simply add the absolute values and apply a negative sign to the result. Understanding the basic rules of addition such as 'minus a minus makes a plus' helps with this process. This principle is consistent across various types of numbers, including complex numbers and vectors.

Adding two negative fractions is similar to adding two negative integers because in both cases, the sum will also be negative. Just like adding negative integers, when adding negative fractions, one simply adds the absolute values of the numerators while keeping the common denominator and then assigns a negative sign to the result. For instance, adding −½ and −¼, first find a common denominator (let's say 4), which turns the fractions into −1/4 and −2/4, then add the numerators to get −3/4, maintaining the negative sign.

Understanding the basic rules of number operations, such as the fact that when two positive numbers add, the sum has a positive sign, and when two negative numbers add, the sum has a negative sign, assists our intuition in addressing both negative integers and negative fractions. Similarly, subtraction of fractions follows the same principle as integers: by changing the sign of the number to be subtracted and then adding as per the normal rules.

The same principles used for addition of integers apply to the addition of negative fractions, showing that basic arithmetic operations are consistent across different types of numbers. This consistency extends beyond integers and fractions, as observed in complex numbers and vector addition, which also follow similar addition rules by combining the respective parts separately.

Final answer:

An equivalent expression to 56m+21n is found by factoring out the greatest common divisor, which is 7, resulting in the simplified expression 7(8m + 3n).

Explanation:

The question asks for an equivalent expression to 56m+21n. To find an equivalent expression, we look for common factors that both terms in the expression have. In this case, both 56 and 21 are divisible by 7. Therefore, we can factor out 7 from both terms to simplify the expression.

The factored form of the expression is:

7(8m + 3n)

This shows that 7(8m + 3n) is an equivalent expression to 56m+21n, simplifying the original expression by finding common factors.

The rational expression is given by:

[tex]E=\frac{2x^2-72}{5x^2-245} \\ \\ Factor \ out: \\ \\ E=\frac{2(x^2-36)}{5(x^2-49)} \\ \\ E=\frac{2(x-6)(x+36)}{5(x-7)(x+7)} : \ \ \ \ a^2-b^2=(a-b)(a+b)[/tex]

The denominator can't be zero, therefore:

[tex](x-7)(x+7)\neq 0 \\ \\ \\ Thus: \\ \\ \boxed{x\neq 7 \ and x \neq -7}[/tex]

Finally, the values of x that make the rational expression undefined are

x = 7 and x = -7

Answer:

x = 7 and x = -7
