It looks like we have two unknowns here and two possible equations so to solve this we will need to utilize our systems of equations, I will be using the substitution method.
We know that all of the parts multiplied together is equal to the volume.
We know that the volume is 126 square inches
The height is seven inches
The width is unknown, let w be the width
The length is unknown, let l be the length
We know that the length is three inches more than the width (l=w+3)
We know that the height times the length times the width is equal to the volume (7lw=126)
Since we know that l=w+3, we can substitute w+3 in for l,
7(w+3)(w)=126
Now we can solve our equation
7(w+3)(w)=126
(7w+21)(w)
7w^2+21w=126
Now we will complete the square to solve for w
7w^2+21w=126
w^2+3w=18
w^2+3w+2.25=20.25
(w+1.5)^2=20.25
w+1.5=4.5
w=3
We have now found out using our knowledge of systems of equations that the width of this prism is 3 inches.

Sloan [31]

Answer:  3x^2y\sqrt[3]{y}\\\\

Work Shown:

\sqrt[3]{27x^{6}y^{4}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{3^3x^{3+3}y^{3+1}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{3^3x^{3}*x^{3}*y^{3}*y^{1}}\\\\\sqrt[3]{3^3x^{2*3}*y^{3}*y}\\\\\sqrt[3]{\left(3x^2y\right)^3*y}\\\\\sqrt[3]{\left(3x^2y\right)^3}*\sqrt[3]{y}\\\\3x^2y\sqrt[3]{y}\\\\

Explanation:

As the steps above show, the goal is to factor the expression under the root in terms of pulling out cubed terms. That way when we apply the cube root to them, the exponents cancel. We cannot factor the y term completely, so we have a bit of leftovers.

A cone and a sphere both have a radius of 1. If you fill the cone with liquid, and pour it into the sphere, it fits exactly. Wha
PtichkaEL [24]

Answer and Step-by-step explanation:

First, solve for the volume of the sphere, then solve for the height of the cone using the volume of the sphere (which is said to be equal to the volume of the cone) and the radius given.

<u>Volume formula of Sphere</u>

V = \frac{4}{3} \pi r^2

<u>Substitute 1 in for r</u>

\frac{4}{3} \pi (1)^2 = \frac{4}{3} \pi  = 4.189 = Volume

<u>Finding the Height of a Cone</u>

Volume formula for Cone: V = \pi r^2\frac{h}{3}

<u />

<u>Solve for </u><u><em>h</em></u>

Multiply both sides by 3, then divide by pi and r^2.

h = \frac{3V}{\pi r^2}

<u>Plug in the volume and the radius.</u>

h = \frac{3(4.189)}{\pi (1)^2}

<u>Simplify</u>

h = \frac{12.567}{\pi }

h ≈ 4

<u>4 is approximately the height.</u>

<u></u>
