Step 1. Convert 3 1/4 to an improper fraction.

3 * 4 + 1/4 - 1 5/8

Step 2. Simplify 3 * 4 to 12

12 + 1/4 - 1 5/8

Step 3. Simplify 12 + 1 to 13

13/4 - 1 5/8

Step 4. Convert 1 5/8 to an improper fraction.

13/4 - 1 * 8 + 5/8

Step 5. Simplify 1 * 8 to 8

13/4 - 8 + 5/8

Step 6. Simplify 8 + 5 to 13

13/4 - 13/8

Step 7. Find the Least Common Denominator (LCD) of 13/4, 13/8

LCD = 8

Step 8. Make the denominators the same as the LCD

13 * 2/ 4 * 2 - 13/8

Step 9. Simplify. Denominators are now the same

26/8 - 13/8

Step 10. Join the denominators

26 - 13/8

Step 11. Simplify

13/8

Step 12. Convert to a mixed fraction

Find the volume of a rectangular prism with the width of x-1, a length of x+1 and a height of 2x-3.
Damm [24]

Answer:

The Volume is equal to 2x^3-3x^2+2x-3

Step-by-step explanation:

Formula for the volume of a rectangular prism is V=WHL

We know that:

W=x-1

L=x+1

H=2x-3

So, V= (x-1)(x-1)(2x-3)

Simplify

(x^2+1)(2x-3)

2x^3-3x^2+2x-3

Paper plates cost $8 per package and plastic utensils cost $5 per package. Your supplier delivers 15 packages for a total cost o
Fittoniya [83]
To find the total of what you sold for each package, you'll need to write two equations. Know that x = paper plate packages and y = utensil packages.
First, x + y = 15 shows that there has to be fifteen packages, and 8x + 5y = 90 shows the $ made from selling a certain number of packages.
Next, you can solve by substitution, so change x + y = 15 to y = 15 - x.

To find our x, substitute the y in 8x + 5y = 90 to get
8x + 5(15 - x) = 90
Distribute: 8x + 75 - 5x = 90
Combine the X's and subtract the 75: 3x = 15
Divide the 3: x = 5

Now with our x, we can put 5 into the original equation x + y = 15 to get 5 + y = 15. Subtracting the 5, we get y = 10.

So, you have delivered 5 paper plate packages and 10 utensil packages.
