At an ice cream carving competition each carver starts with a block of ice with the dimensions shown (4,2,3). the block is wrapped with special reflective material to keep it from melting. how much reflective material is needed to cover the whole block without any overlaps?

Total reflective material required = 52 square unit

Step-by-step explanation:

An ice block has the dimensions as 4 units × 2 units × 3 units

This ice block to bee covered with a special reflective paper to protect the ice block from melting.

Amount of reflective material required = Total surface area of the ice block

Since total surface area of a rectangular prism = 2(lb + bh + hl)

Where l = length of the ice block

b = width of the ice block

h = height of the ice block

Now total surface area for the given dimensions = 2(4×2 + 2×3 + 3×4)

= 2(8 + 6 + 12)

= 52 units²

Therefore, total reflective material required will be 52 units².

in mathematics, a constraint is a condition of an optimization problem that the solution must satisfy. there are several types of constraints—primarily equality constraints, inequality constraints, and integer constraints. the set of candidate solutions that satisfy all constraints is called the feasible set.

hoped i'm right lol

if gloria has "carry over" minutes, (that is, any minutes paid for but not used in a month can be applied to her payment for minutes in the next month,) her total usage for the three months is: total minutes = 320 + 243 + 489 = 1052 minutes number of 200 minute blocks = 1052/200 = 5 r52 (that is 5 with a remainder of 52) rounding up the number of 200 minute blocks gives her usage for the three months as 6 blocks. the cost for six blocks is 6 x $25 = $150 she also has 200 - 52 or 148 carry over minutes if gloria pays each month and unused minutes are lost, applying the rounding up procedure to each month gives: first month usage of 320 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 second month usage of 243 minutes rounds up to 2 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 2 x $25 = $50 third month usage of 489 minutes rounds up to 3 blocks of 200 minutes for a payment of 3 x $25 = $75 total payments for the three months are $50 + $50 + $75 = $175 get the plan with carry over minutes!
