Mathematics

There are 78 cookies in box C, 26 cookies in box B and 10 cookies in box A.

let the number of cookies in first box be represented mathematically as   B-16

the number of cookies in second box be represented as B

the number of cookies in third box be represented as 3B

Since there are 124 cookies we can make an equation  such that it becomes

B-16 +B +3B =124

Solving for B, we have

5B -16 =124

5B =124 +16

5B =130

B=130/5

B=26

Therefore Box A contains B-16 =26-16 =10 cookies

Box C contains 3B =3 X 26=78 cookies

How do you solve this problem? (x+3) cubed
Lubov Fominskaja [6]
You would expand becausee it isn't equal to anything

(x+3)^3=(x+3)(x+3)(x+3)
we can use binomial theorem or pascal's triangle
anyway, pascal's triangle is more practicl for this one

so
for the 3rd power
(a+b)^3=1a^3+3a^2b^1+3a^1b^2+1b^3

a=x
b=3

(x+3)^3=1x^3+3x^2(3^1)+3x^1(3)^2+1(3)^3=
x^3+9x^2+27x+27
