Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
The above-listed answer choices are the only ones that are self-consistent.
The quotient choices all have a leading coefficient of 3, and the result of dividing by <some number> is a leading coefficient of 1. Obviously, the <some number> must be 3 (first choice on the second menu).
Looking only at the constant term, we see that after division by 3, we have 3. So the original quotient constant term must be 3×3 = 9 (first choice on the first menu). Note that we have chosen the correct answer simply by looking at coefficients, not even bothering with actual division of variables.
I took a test on this yesterday and all i know is the answer is either 81 117 or 162
The line of symmetry is 1
A cube has all sides of equal length.
So let the side be x
that will be length = width = height = x
Now, when we cut the loaf into 5 equal slices, the length and height of the slices are the same as the original loaf. But the width will become less with each slicing. Here the width corresponds to the thickness of the slices.
For each slice the dimensions are -
Length = x
height = x
width = 0.6
Volume of the original loaf is x³.
Volume of 5 slices is 5(x * x * 0.6).
Volume that is left after the cutting the slices is 235 inch³.
So, equation of the volume is=
x³ - 5(0.6x²) = 235
Solve for x using this equation.
x³ - 3x² = 235
x³ - 3x² - 235 = 0
Using a graph calculator to find the roots, we get
x = 7.35
Hence the dimensions of the original loaf is 7.35 inches for each side.
