Answer:

  • C. 4 miles

Step-by-step explanation:

Let the distance between police station and the fire station be x.

According to question we have:

  • the distance between the library and the police station is 3 miles less than twice the distance between the police station and the fire station,
  • the distance between the library and the police station is 5 miles.

It can be expressed as:

  • 5 = 2x - 3

Solve the equation for x:

  • 2x = 5 + 3
  • 2x = 8
  • x = 4

<u>Correct choice</u> is C

a room in a form of a cuboid has a length of 5cm, height 8cm and breadth 0.07m. if one person can occupy a volume of 14cm3(cube)
Over [174]

Answer:

20 people

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a cuboid is equal to length * breadth * height.

First, we want to figure out the values relative to each other. Everything is in centimeters except the breadth, which is 0.07m. To convert meters to centimeters, we can multiply by 100: 0.07 * 100 = 7, so the breadth is 7cm.

Next, the volume is  length * breadth * height = 5cm * 7cm * 8cm = 280cm³. Each person occupies 14cm³. To find how many people can occupy the cube, we can divide the volume by the space each person takes, so

280cm³/14cm³ = 20 people

Note that we can divide because each person takes x amount of space, and the total space, z, can be represented by x * y = z, with y representing the amount of people, because we add x space for each person. Dividing both sides by x, we get y = z/x
