Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

Please write points using parentheses: (4, 5) and (-4, 8}.

(4, 5) is in the 1st quadrant and (-4, 8} is in the 2nd. Reversing the order of these two points yields (-4, 8) and (4, 5). From this we can see that while moving from (-4, 8) to (4, 5) involves following a line with negative slope (because the y-coordinate decreases from 8 to 5 as the x-coordinate increases from -4 to +4). This sloping line is the hypotenuse of a right triangle. Draw a vertical line segment through (-4, 8) and a horizontal line segment through (4, 5). This hypotenuse, the vertical line segment and the horizontal line segment are the boundaries of the desired right triangle.

If three times a number minus 2 equals 13, what is the number?

Nana76 [90]

Change the messy words into numerals
3 times a number minus 2    equals    13
3 × n - 2 = 13

3n - 2 = 13
take 2 to the other side
3n - 2 + (2) = 13 + (2)
3n = 15

Divide by 3 on either sides to isolate n
$\frac{3n}{3}$ = $\frac{15}{3}$
3 and 3 cancels out

n = 5

check:
3 times 5 minus 2 equals 13
3   × 5 - 2 = 13
15 - 2 = 13
13 =    13

The number is 5

Haley makes earrings and packages them into cube boxes that measure 1/6 foot wide. how many 1/6 foot cubic boxes can she fit int

navik [9.2K]

Answer: $28\ cubes$

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cube can be found with this formula:

$V_{(c)}=s^3$

Where "s" is the lenght of any edge of the cube.

The formula for calculate the volume of a rectangular prism is:

$V_{rp}=lwh$

Where "l" is the lenght, "w" is the width and "h" is the height.

We need to find the volume of a cube box:

$V_1=s^3=(\frac{1}{6}ft)^3=\frac{1}{216}ft^3$

To find the volume of the shipping box, first we must convert the mixed number to an improper fraction:

$1\frac{1}{6}=\frac{(6*1)+1}{6}=\frac{7}{6}$

Then the volume of the shipping box is:

$V_2=lwh\\\\V_2=(\frac{7}{6}ft)(\frac{1}{3}ft)(\frac{1}{3}ft)=\frac{7}{54}ft^3$

Now, in order to find the number of cube boxes can Haley fits into a shipping box, you must divide the the volume of the shipping box by the volume of one cube. This is:

$\frac{\frac{7}{54}ft^3}{\frac{1}{216}ft^3}=28$
