Which correctly describes a cross section of the right rectangular prism if the base is a rectangle measuring 15 inches by 8 inc

hes? Select three options..
A right rectangular prism with length 15 inches, width of 8 inches, and height of 6 inches.
A cross section parallel to the base is a rectangle measuring 15 inches by 8 inches.
A cross section parallel to the base is a rectangle measuring 15 inches by 6 inches.
A cross section perpendicular to the base through the midpoints of the 8-inch sides is a rectangle measuring 6 inches by 15 inches.
A cross section perpendicular to the base through the midpoints of the 8-inch sides is a rectangle measuring 4 inches by 15 inches.

This question is not complete because it lacks the diagram of the Rectangular prism.

Answer:

Attached to this diagram is the necessary diagram

• A cross section parallel to the base is a rectangle measuring 15 inches by 8 inches.

• A cross section perpendicular to the base through the midpoints of the 8-inch sides is a rectangle measuring 6 inches by 15 inches.

• A cross section not parallel to the base that passes through opposite 6-inch edges is a rectangle measuring 6 inches by greater than 15 inches.

Step-by-step explanation:

A right rectangular prism is a prism that is 3 dimensional in shape and it has 6 rectangular faces.

From the attached diagram, we can see that their is a cross section that is parallel to the base, it has breadth of 8 inches and breathe of 15inches, therefore the option

"• A cross section parallel to the base is a rectangle measuring 15 inches by 8 inches." is correct.

Secondly, when we look at the diagram and check the midpoints thought the 8 inches sides , the cross section perpendicular to the base is a rectangle that has a length of 6 inches and a breadth of 15 inches . Therefore the option

"• A cross section perpendicular to the base through the midpoints of the 8-inch sides is a rectangle measuring 6 inches by 15 inches." Is correct

Thirdly, by observing the attached diaiagram,

• A cross section not parallel to the base that passes through opposite 6-inch edges is a rectangle measuring 6 inches by greater than 15 inches is correct.

Use the binomial theorem to show that 7^n + 2 is divisible by 3, where n is a positive integer.
masha68 [24]

By the binomial theorem,

7^n=(6+1)^n=6^n+n6^{n-1}+\dbinom n26^{n-2}+\cdots+\dbinom n{n-2}6^2+n6^1+1

Each term containing a factor 6 is divisible by 3, since 3 divides 6. The remaining 1 and 2 sum to 3, which is also divisible by 3.

You travel 5 miles downstream in a kayak at a speed of r miles per hour. You turn around and travel 6 miles upstream at a speed
Vlad1618 [11]
Kyle, d = rt, right? This means that t = d/r. If we call the rate of the current c, then her rate upstream is hindered by the current and is 3 - c. Downstream is 3 + c. The total time is 6 hours... 5/(3 - c) + 5/(3 + c) = 6 Once we put everything over the same denominator, we don't need it anymore. 5(3 + c) + 5(3 - c) = 6(3 - c)(3 + c) 15 + 5c + 15 - 5c = 54 - 6c2
30 = 54 - 6c26c2 = 24c2 = 4c = 2 2 mph

Eddi Din [679]
Given:
Point A (-3.0,-5.4)
Point B (-3.0,5.4)

reflection across y-axis ⇒ (a,b) reflected (-a,b)
reflection across x-axis ⇒ (a,b) reflected (a,-b)
reflection across the origin ⇒ (a,b) reflected (-a,-b)
reflection on y = x ⇒ (a,b) reflected (b,a)

Point B is a reflection of Point A across the x-axis.

If the pointer in the figure is spun twice, find the probability that the pointer lands on red (R) both spins.
r-ruslan [8.4K]

The probability of the pointer lands on red(R) both spin = \frac{1}{36}

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The number of parts = 6

The pointer is spun twice.

To find the probability of the pointer lands on red(R) both spin.

Formula

Probability of an event = number of required outcomes ÷ the total number of outcomes.

P(A and B) = P(A)×P(B)

Now,

For one spin,

A = RED comes.

For second spin,

B = RED comes

So,

P(A) = \frac{1}{6} and P(B) =  \frac{1}{6}

Then,

P(A and B) =  \frac{1}{6} × \frac{1}{6}  = \frac{1}{36}

Hence, the probability of the pointer lands on red(R) both spin = \frac{1}{36}
