Answer:

3x = 2x + 3.

Step-by-step explanation:

In the question it has been given that three times a number is three more than twice the number.

Let the number is x.

Then by the given statement 3x = 2x + 3

So equation formed can be used to find the value of x

3x - 2x = 3

x = 3

Therefore, the number is 3 and equation to be solved for x is 3x = 2x + 3.

Let the value of the number be represented as x.

Then, write out an equation;

3x=2x+3 <--- Solve for x now
3x-2x=3
x=3

Therefore the number is 3.

Hope I helped :)

Find the difference between the lengths of the longest and shortest sides of a rectangle if its area is 924 square milimetres an

BigorU [14]

Length =l

Height = h

Area function = l * h = 924

Perimeter function = 2i + 2h = 122

Divide by 2

I + h = 61.

Plug in I or h for the other variable

I * (61 - I) = 924

61i - i^2 = 924

Factor the function

(-I + 28)(I - 33) = 0

l = 33 as l cannot be negative

61 - 33 = 28

h = 28

Difference between h and l is 33-28=5

A rectangular prism has a width of 51 ft and a volume of 144 ft3. Find the volume of a similar prism with a width of 17 ft. Roun

meriva

Answer:

$5.3\ ft^3$

Step-by-step explanation:

Similar shapes with scale factor $k$ have proportional volumes with coefficient $k^3$ i.e.

$\dfrac{V_{large}}{V_{small}}=k^3,$

where

$k=\dfrac{\text{width of large prism}}{\text{width of small prism}}.$

Since

$\text{width of large prism}=51\ ft,\\ \\\text{width of small prism}=17\ ft,$

then

$k=\dfrac{51}{17}=3.$

Hence,

$\dfrac{144}{V_{small}}=3^3\Rightarrow V_{small}=\dfrac{144}{27}=\dfrac{16}{3}=5\dfrac{1}{3}\approx 5.3\ ft^3.$

What’s the radius, circumference, and area?

Ivenika [448]

Answer:

Radius: 19 yards

Diameter: 38 yards

Circumference: 119. 32

Step-by-step explanation:

Radius

To find the radius you divide the diameter by 2 because, the diameter is a; a straight line passing from side to side through the center of a body or figure, especially a circle or sphere.

So 38 ÷ 2 = 19

So the radius is 19.

_____________________

Circumference

To find the Circumference you need to do 2·π·19

C=2·π

2·π = 6.28

6.28 · 19 = 119. 32

Circumference is 119. 32
