Complete Question

Angela has constructed a wedge-shaped pillow for her TV watching needs. It contains 0.35 m³ of fluffy material. The pillow's base area measures 0.5m², and its height stands at 1m.

What is the length of the pillow?

Provide an exact answer (no rounding).

Answer:

1.4m

Step-by-step explanation:

A wedge can be defined as a Triangular prism. Thus,

The volume formula for a wedge (Triangular prism) is given by: 1/2 × B × H × L

b = 0.5m

h = 1 m

l =??

Volume of the wedge = 0.35 m³

0.35 = 1/2 × 0.5 × 1 × L

0.35 = 0.25 × L

Solving for L, we get: L = 0.35/0.25

L = 1.4m

I believe the answer is D. Town A exhibits symmetry, meaning if folded down the middle, both halves would align. Conversely, Town B displays a positive skew, indicating one or more data points skewed to the right.

Response:

Option B.

Step-by-step breakdown:

The general equation for the best fit line is

$y=ax+b$

where a indicates the slope and b the y-intercept.

Utilizing a graphing calculator yields a=-4.54762 and b=43.7143. Hence, the equation for the best fit line can be represented as

$y=-4.54762x+43.7143$

Here,

$Slope=-4.54762$

$Slope\approx -4.5$

Note: Alternatively, you can apply the following formula to compute the slope.

$m=\dfrac{\overline{x}\cdot \overline{y}-\overline{xy}}{(\overline{x})^2-\overline{x^2}}$

Accordingly, the correct choice is B.

I believe it would be 4/15 since science books are 6/15 and fiction accounts for 5/15

While I don't require it, a brainliest would be greatly appreciated

Which expression is equivalent to (3m^-2n)^-3/6mn^-2? Assume m=0, n=0.

Inessa [12570]

This is the solution:

(3m^-2 n)^-3 / 6mn^-2
For the first step: apply the power distribution3^-3 m^-2*-3 n^-3 / 6mn^-2
In the second step: utilize the product and quotient rulesm^6 n^2/ 3^3 *6*m*n^3
Lastly, simplify the expressionm^5/162n
The conclusive answer is m^5/162n

Hope this aids you.:)
