The volume of the pond is 48 cubic feet. Then the weight of the water in the pond will be 2,976 pounds.

What is the volume of the rectangular prism?

Let the prism with a length of L, a width of W, and a height of H. Then the volume of the prism is given as

V = L x W x H

Water weighs about 62 pounds per cubic foot. The pond is 6 feet long and 4 feet wide. If the water pond is 2 feet deep. Then the volume of the water pond is calculated as,

V = L x W x H

V = 6 x 2 x 4

V = 48 cubic feet

Then the weight of the water in the pond will be given as,

W = 62 x 48

W = 2,976 pounds

The volume of the pond is 48 cubic feet. Then the weight of the water in the pond will be 2,976 pounds.

Seattle Washington received rain on 7/10 of the day and a recent months if this pattern continues about how many days would it not rain in 90 days

Answers

If I understood correctly:

on 7 out of 10 days it's raining? so on 3 out of 10 days it is not raining. (10-3=7)

and the question is: in 90 days, on how many of those would it rain and on how many not? ( correct me if I'm wrong, I think You had some typos and I couldn't understand the question)

so in 90 days there are 9 times 10 days. If in every one of those 10 days on 7 it's raining, then it's raining on 9*7=63 days!

and days when it is not raining are: 90-63=27!

Choose the equation that represents a line that passes through points (−6, 4) and (2, 0). x + 2y = 2 2x − y = −16 x + 2y = −8 2x + y = 4

Answers

Answer:

x + 2y = 2

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope-intercept form of an equation of a line:

y=mx+b

m - slope

b - y-intercept

The formula of a slope:

m=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)

================================================

We have the points (-6, 4) and (2, 0).

Substitute:

m=(0-4)/(2-(-6))=(-4)/(8)=-(1)/(2)

Put the value of the slope and coordinates of the point (2, 0) to the equation of a line:

0=-(1)/(2)(2)+b

0=-1+b          add 1 to both sides

1=b\to b=1

The equation of a line in the slope-intercept form:

y=-(1)/(2)x+1

Convert to the standard form Ax+By=C

y=-(1)/(2)x+1           multiply both sides by 2

2y=-x+2             add x to both sides

x+2y=2

Answer:

Option 1.

Step-by-step explanation:

It is given that the line passes through the points (-6,4) and (2,0).

If a line passes through two points, then the equation of line is

y-y_1=(y_2-y_1)/(x_2-x_1)(x-x_1)

Using the above formula the equation of line is

y-(4)=(0-4)/(2-(-6))(x-(-6))

y-4=(-4)/(8)(x+6)

y-4=(-1)/(2)(x+6)

Muliply both sides by 2.

2y-8=-x-6

x+2y=-6+8

x+2y=2

Therefore, the correct option is 1.

What is an equation of the line that is perpendicular to y-3 =-4(x+2)​

Answers

Answer:

y - 3 = (1)/(4)(x+2) or choose any line with slope 1/4

Step-by-step explanation:

The slope of this line is -4. The slope of the line perpendicular to this line will be the negative reciprocal or 1/4.

Write the equation using the slope m=1/4 and the point slope form.

y-y_1=m(x-x_1)\ny-3=(1)/(4)(x+2)

This is the equation of the line that is perpendicular and passes through the same point (-2,3) as the equation listed.

Answer:

y=(1)/(4) x+c   where c can be any number.

Step-by-step explanation:

First we need to clear for y:

y-3 =-4(x+2)\ny=-4(x+2)+3\ny=-4x-8+3\ny=-4x-5

and now we have an equation of the form:

y=mx+b

where m is the slope and b is the y-intercept.

in this case m=-4 and b=-5

to find and equation perpendicular to this line, the following must be true:m*m_(1)=-1

where m is the slope of the original line that i just mentioned, and m_(1) is the slope of the new line. Substituting m=-4

-4*m_(1)=-1

clearing for m_(1)

m_(1)=(-1)/(-4) \nm_(1)=(1)/(4)

thus, the new perpendicular line must have the form:

y=m_(1)x+c\ny=(1)/(4)x+c

where the y-intecept c can be any number, some examples are:

y=(1)/(4)x+3\ny=(1)/(4)x-8

and so on, the important thing to be a perpendicular line is that the slopes are related to the equation m*m_(1)=-1.

Mr. Anderson drove 168 miles in 3 and 1/2 hours. HE then drove the next 2 and 1/4 hours at a rate of 5 miles an hour faster than the first rate. How many miles did Mr.Anderson Drive during the 5 and 3/4 hours?Please answer ASAP for brainliest answer and thanks!

Answers

The distancetraveled in the period of 5 and 3\4 hours will be 287 miles and 1\4 miles.

Calculating the velocity of each moment we have:

  • Speed 1 :

168 miles / 2.25 hours = 48 miles/hour

  • Speed 2:

48 + 5 miles/hour = 53 miles/hour

calculating the distance of each moment we have:

  • Distance 1 = 168 miles

  • Distance 2:

2.25 hours X 53 miles/hour =119.25 miles

Calculating the total distance we have:

Total Distance = Distance 1 + Distance 2

= 168 + 119.25 miles = 287.25 miles

See more about distance at brainly.com/question/15172156

Speed 1 = 168 miles / 2.25 hours = 48 miles/hour
Speed 2 = 48 + 5 miles/hour = 53 miles/hour
Distance 1 = 168 miles
Distance 2 = 2.25 hours X 53 miles/hour =119.25 miles
Total Distance = Distance 1 + Distance 2 = 168 + 119.25 miles = 287.25 miles
Or 287 and 1/4 miles
