Answer:

These are the rectangular prisms that have a surface area greater than 140 square feet

6 feet by 5 feet by 4 feet

7 feet by 6 feet by 4 feet

8 feet by 3 feet by 7 feet

Step-by-step explanation:

The formula to find the surface area of a rectangular prism is SA=2(wl+hl+hw)

All you have to do is go through all the options given to you to figure out which retangular prisms have a surface area greater than 140 square feet.

6 feet by 2 feet by 3 feet

SA = 2((2)(6)+(3)(6)+(3)(2))

SA = 2(12 + 18 + 6)

SA = 2(36)

SA = 72

6 feet by 5 feet by 4 feet

SA = 2((6)(5) + (4)(5) + (4)(6))

SA = 2(30 + 20 + 24)

SA = 2(74)

SA = 148

7 feet by 6 feet by 4 feet

SA = 2((7)(6) + (4)(6) + (4)(7))

SA = 2(42 + 24 + 28)

SA = 2(94)

SA = 188

8 feet by 3 feet by 7 feet

SA = 2((8)(3)+(7)(3)+(7)(8))

SA = 2(24 + 21 + 56)

SA = 2(101)

SA = 202

8 feet by 4 feet by 3 feet

SA = 2((8)(4)+(3)(4)+(3)(8))

SA = 2(32 + 12 + 24)

SA = 2(68)

SA = 136

harkovskaia [24]

Answer:

Jasmine only.

Jasmine and Kanti only.

No one.

Step-by-step explanation:

There is no possible way to invite all three friends.

Since both Samir and Kanti will not attend if someone else is not invited, Jasmine is the only friend that can be invited on her own:

One person: Jasmine.

When inviting two people, if Jasmine is invited, Samir can't be invited and Kanti will only attend if Jasmine also does. Therefore, Jasmine and Kanti can go together and there is no way Kanti can be invited.

Two people: Jasmine and Kanti.

Furthermore, if nobody is invited, no one will be unhappy.

7 times as much as the sum of 1/3 and 4/5

Vlada [557]

$7( \frac{1}{3} + \frac{4}{5} )$

$=7( \frac{1(5)}{3(5)} + \frac{4(3)}{5(3)} )$

$=7( \frac{5}{15} + \frac{12}{15} )$

$=7( \frac{17}{15})$

$=\frac{7}{1} ( \frac{17}{15})$

$=\frac{119}{15}$

$= 7\frac{14}{15}$ ≈ 7.93

Jordan builds a miniature catapult for the science fair. He documents how far the catapult can throw a small rock for his report

GrogVix [38]

The rate to convert yards to meters is

$1 \text{ yard}=0.9144\text{ meters}$

So, if you multiply both sides by 8, you get

$8 \text{ yards} = 8\times 0.9144 = 7.3152 \text{ meters}$

To round the answer to the nearest tenth, we need to choose between 7.3 and 7.4. Since the hundreths digit is 1, which is less than 5, 7.3 is nearest to 7.3152 than 7.4, so the correct answer is 7.3

Answer:

B. On a coordinate plane, an absolute value curve curves up and to the right in quadrant 4 and starts at y = 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Graph of the function:</u>

y = -√x + 1

The domain is x ≥ 0, the range y ≤ 1

Correct answer choice is B

On a coordinate plane, an absolute value curve curves up and to the right in quadrant 4 and starts at y = 1.

A daffodil grows 0.05m every day. Plot the growth of the flower if the initial length of the daffodil is 0.8m and hence give the

Vanyuwa [196]

Answer:

1.2m

Step-by-step explanation:

You must first find out how much the daffodil grew over the 8 days:

0.05 x 8 = 0.4

Then you must add how much it grew to the original height:

0.4 + 0.8 = 1.2

Hope this helps you out! : )
