Find the volume of the regular hexagonal prism with side lengths of 4 ft, height of 3ft and apothem of approximately 3.5 ft

Answer:

A(p)  = 84 ft³

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of regular prism is equal to V(p):

V(p)  = Area of the face * h

we know h = 3 ft

A regular hexagonal prism has 6 equal sides forming its face.

Finding the area (A₂) of a triangle formed  by center of the prism, straight lines between the center and two adjacents vertex and side between these two vertex, and then multiply that area by 6 (number of equal triangles inside hexagonal prism) we get the area of the face, but  we need further consideration, the triangle described above, has doble area of (A₁), the triangle formed by apothem, half side, and straight line between center of the face and the vertex, therefore.

Area of small triangle = base * height

A₁  = (1/2) * 4 * 3,5

A₁  =  2*3,5

A₁  = 7 ft²

A₂  = 2* 7    

A₂  = 14 ft²

Finally volume  of the hexagonal prism is:

V(p) = 6 * 14

A(p)  = 84 ft³

Murljashka [212]

Answer:

For this case we can make the following rule of three:

25% ----------------> 2 $

100% --------------> x

From here, we clear the value of x.

We have then:

Therefore, the value of the Taco that Andrea bought, before the tip, is $ 8.

the price of Andrea's tacos, before tip is $ 8.

At higher altitudes, water boils at lower temperatures. This relationship between altitude and boiling point is linear. At an al
Mashutka [201]

Let's assume

boiling point is y

altitude is x

we are given

This relationship between altitude and boiling point is linear

At an altitude of 1000 feet, water boils at 210°F

so, first point is (1000,210)

so, x1=1000 , y1=210

At an altitude of 3000 feet, water boils at 206°F

so, second point is (3000,206)

so, x2=3000,y2=206

now, we can find slope

m=\frac{y_2-y_1}{x_2-x_1}

now, we can plug values

m=\frac{206-210}{3000-1000}

m=-\frac{1}{500}

now, we can use point slope form of line

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)

so, we can plug it

y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(x-1000)

so, point slope form of line is

y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(x-1000)

now, we can plug x=8000

and then we can solve for y

y-210=-\frac{1}{500}(8000-1000)

y=196

So,

the boiling point of water at an altitude of 8000 feet is 196°F..........Answer

On a coordinate plane, line P Q goes through (negative 6, 4) and (4, negative 4). Point R On a coordinate plane, a line goes thr
Nitella [24]

Answer:

x + 2y = 8.

Step-by-step explanation:

Line goes through (-4, 0) and (4, -4).

The slope is (-4 - 0) / (4 - -4) = -4 / (4 + 4) = -4 / 8 = -1/2.

Since we are looking for the equation of the line parallel to that line, the slope will be the same.

We have an equation of y = -1/2x + b. We have a point at (2, 3). We can then say that y = 3 when x = 2.

3 = (-1/2) * 2 + b

b - 1 = 3

b = 4.

So, we have y = -1/2x + 4.

1/2x + y = 4

x + 2y = 8.

Hope this helps!

Nathan spins 2 different spinners at the same time. There are a total of 10 possible
kow [346]

Answer:

Since the spinners have been spun simultaneously, every side on each of the spinner carries equal probability of landing. In order for there to be only 10 possible outcomes, no more no less, the spinners cannot be identical. One of the spinner in two sided while the other spinner must then be a five sided spinner. Choosing this particular pair of spinners gives Nathan 10 possibilities of combinations.

Hope that answers the question, have a great day!
