Why can there be two vertical cross sections for a right rectangular prism and only one horizontal cross section?

Answers

Answer 1

Answer: The horizontal cross section is parallel to the base. It is always a single, constant sized, rectangle. The vertical one is not restricted to be parallel to any face. So, its size will vary as the prism is rotated. It could vary between a size, the other one or the diagonal (largest), however the height remains constant.

Walt and Amy each have the same number of pennies. Walt made equal stacks of 10 pennies with none left over. Amy made equal stacks of 8 pennies with none left over. What is the least number of pennies that each person could have? Explain how you found your answer.

Answers

Answer:

40 coins

Step-by-step explanation:

Note that

$10=\underline{2} \cdot 5,\n \n8=\underline{2} \cdot 2\cdot 2.$

To find the least common multiple you have to multiply all common multiplies and then multiply them by all factors that left. Thus,

$LCM(10,8)=\underline{2} \cdot 5\cdot 2\cdot 2=40.$

This means that if Walt and Amy each have 40 coins, then Walt can make 4 stacks with 10 coins in each and Amy can make 5 stacks with 8 coins in each.

Alicia borrowed 15000 to buy a car. she borrowed the money at 8% for 6 years. How much will she have to pay the bank at the end of the 6 years

Answers

Answer:

She have to pay the bank at the end of the 6 years = 222000$

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula applied in this case where price, interest rate and time duration is mentioned.

Interest = prt/100

Substituting all the given values in the formula.

interest = 15000 * 6 * 8/100

150 * 6 * 8 = 7200

Interest + 15000 = 15000 + 7200 = 222000$ has to pay the total.

In this question amount is 15000 multiply by 6 and by 8 then divide it by 100 so we get the interest then we add it in to amount so we get an answer that is total amount which he has to pay.
