Rules: (-) plus (-) equals positive.
Anything negative in absolute value will turn positive. Example, | -2 | —> 2
|-4b-8|+|-1 -b^2| +2b^3; b=-2
First step is substituting all the “b” to -2.
|-4(-2) -8| + |-1 -(-2)^2| +2(-2)^3
Then start solving.
|8-8| + |-1 -(4)| +2(-8)
|0| + |-5| -16
0 +5 -16= -11
Answer: -11

=

Multiply both sides by 12, so that we get rid of the fraction in x.
12 · (x+3)/12 = 2/7 · 12
Simplify.
x + 3 = 24/7
Then, subtract 3 from both sides, so that "x" gets isolated.
x = 24/7 - 3
Turn "3" into an improper fraction so that we could find the value of x easier.
3 = 21/3
So :
x = 24/7 - 21/7
Simplify.
x = 3/7

To find the volume of the smaller cylinder you will need to determine the scale factor by comparing the 2 cylinders. The scale factor is 1:2. This means that each dimension will be divided by 2 when going from the larger to the smaller figure.
Because volume is a three dimensional measurement, you need to divide 9648 by 2, three times.
9648/2=4824
4824/2=2412
2412/2=1206 cubic inches
The volume of the smaller container is 1206 cubic inches.
