Answer:

Naomi=x

Afful=2x

In 5 years time= +5

So Naomi=x+5

and and Afful=2x+5

=x+5+2x+5=34

=3x+10=34

Subtract 10 on both sides

3x=24

Divide 3 on both sides

X=8

Check:

X=8

Naomi=16

In 5 years

=16+5=21

Naomi=8+5=13

13+21=34

Hope this helps

Answer:

Afful is 21 and Naomi is 13.

Step-by-step explanation:

Let A represent the age of Afful and N represent the age of Naomi.

The sum of their ages is 34. In other words:

A+N=34

In 5 years time, Afful will be two times the age of Naomi <em>now</em>. In other words:

A+5=2N

Solve for the system. Substitute.

A+N=34\\A=34-N\\34-N+5=2N\\39=3N\\N=13\\\\A=34-N\\A=34-(13)\\A=21

Afful is currently 21 and Noami is currently 13.

It takes 154 cubes with side lengths of 1/2 inch to fill a rectangular prism. What is the volume of the rectangular prism? Show
Tju [1.3M]

Answer:

The volume of the rectangular prism is <u>19.25 inches³</u>.

Step-by-step explanation:

Given:

It takes 154 cubes with side lengths of 1/2 inch to fill a rectangular prism.

Now, to find the rectangular prism's volume.

We first find the volume of a cube to fill in the rectangular prism.

The side length of the cube = \frac{1}{2}\ inch.

Now, to get the volume of cube we put formula:

Volume=(side)^3\\\\Volume=(\frac{1}{2})^3 \\\\Volume=\frac{1}{8}\ inch^3.

<em>Thus, the volume of a cube is  </em>\frac{1}{8} \ inch^3.<em />

<em>Number of cubes = 154.</em>

<u><em>According to question, it takes 154 cubes to fill the rectangular prism.</em></u>

<u><em>So, to get the volume of prism we need to find the volume of 154 cubes.</em></u>

Now, to get the volume of 154 such cubes we multiply the volume of a cube by number of cubes:

\frac{1}{8}\times 154\\\\ =\frac{154}{8}\\\\ =19.25\ inches^3.

Therefore, the volume of the rectangular prism is 19.25 inches³.
