The entire exterior of a large wooden cube is painted red, and then the cube is sliced into n^3 smaller cubes (where n > 2). Each of the smaller cubes is identical. In terms of n, how many of these smaller cubes have been painted red on at least one of their faces?A. 6n^2
B. 6n^2 – 12n + 8
C. 6n^2 – 16n + 24
D. 4n^2
E. 24n – 24

Answers

Answer 1
Answer:

Answer:

B. 6n^2-12 n +8

Step-by-step explanation:

Given,

The number of smaller cubes = n^3

So, the number of cubes that have no coloured faces.  = (n-2)^3,

Note : If a cube painted outside having side n is split into n³ cubes, then the volume volume that is not painted = (n-2)³

Thus, the remaining cubes that have been painted red on at least one of their faces

= Total cubes - cubes with no painted face

= n^3 -(n-2)^3

=n^3 - (n^3 - 8 - 6n^2 +12n)

=6n^2-12 n +8

Hence, OPTION B is correct.

A single box of thumb tacks weighed 3 1⁄2 ounces. If a teacher had 4 1⁄7 boxes, how
much would their combined weight be?

Answers

The combined weight of the boxes which is the product of the weight per box and the number of boxes is 14.5 ounces

Weight of each box = 3 \frac {1}{2} \: ounces

Number of boxes = 4 \frac {1}{7}

The combined weight will be the product of each single box and the Number of boxes ;

Weight of each box × Number of boxes

\frac {7}{2} * \frac {29}{7} = (203)/(14)= 14 (1)/(2)

Therefore, the combined weight of the boxes will be 14.5 ounces

What is the slope of the line that passes through the points (−2,7) and (2,−5)? Write your answer in simplest form.

Answers

Answer:

-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Slope = Rise/Run

We can find the amount between 7 and -5 as 12, and -2 and 2 as 4.

Then we can do rise/run and 12/4

Which would divide into 3.

ANd because we can see the x increases as the y decreases, we can find that it's a negative slope.

Answers

Answer:

Hello my friend! The first step is to isolate the x and the 40 like this: x2 = 40.

Step-by-step explanation:

After you do that, you can perform the inverse operation of the x2, wich is the sqrt of 40. This way, you will have x=sqrt40 .   X~=6.32

Answers

50% is equal to 5/10 so 5/10 were party cakes 1/5x2=2/10 so 2/10 were fruit cakes 5/10+2/10=7/10 so 10/10 which is 100% of all cakes 10/10-7/10=3/10 so 3/10 of the cakes were sponge cakes.
