Volume of the box = length * width * height
length of original peice = x + 10 , width = x
length of box (x + 10) - 4 = x + 6
width of box = x - 4
height of box = 2
so we have
2 * (x -4) * ( x + 6) = 832
2x^2 + 4x - 48 = 832
2x^2 + 4x - 880 = 0
x^2 + 2x - 440 = 0
(x + 22)(x - 20) = 0
x = 20
so width of original piece of metal = 20 ins , length = 30 inches.
<span>The answer is 2431.01. At the end of the first year, 5 percent of 2000 is taken and added on to the 2000 you started with. At the end of the second, another 5 percent of that higher number is taken and added on, and so on and so forth until you end up receiving 2431.01 in total after 4 years.</span>

Step-by-step explanation:
Answer: $17.50.
Step-by-step explanation;
If each muffin cost her $0.25 to make and she spent $8.75 making all muffins, then you can divide this amount to find out how many muffins she made (8.75/0.25), this is 35 muffins. If she sold each muffin for $0.50, multiply the number of muffins (35) by their price ($0.50), this is $17.50. Therefore, <em>Maria received $17.50 from selling her muffins</em>.
