The answer is Difference of Cubes.
Difference of cubes is a³ - b³.
27 can be written as 3³ (= 3 × 3 × 3 = 27). So, a = 3.
8 can be written as 2³ (= 2 × 2 × 2 = 8). So, b = 2.
Difference of cubes can be expressed as:
a³ - b³ = (a - b)(a² + ab + b²)
⇒ 3³ - 2³ = (3 - 2)(3² + 3×2 + 2²) = 1 × (9 + 6 + 4) = 1 × 19 = 19
⇒ 27 - 8 = 19
Add 4.5<span> and </span>9.2<span> to get </span><span>13.7.
</span>13.7
13.7 in. is the length
I belive the answer to be b
Your question answers itself. You solve by graphing.
I like to subtract one side of the equation from the other, so the solutions are where the graph crosses the x-axis (the resulting function value is zero).
It can be useful to find the "turning point" of each absolute value expression (where its value is zero) and graph that and some points on either side.
Here's what you need to know in order to answer this:
1 gallon = 128 fl oz
and
1 day = 24 hours.
Use those facts to invent fractions equal to ' 1 '.
Then use those to change the units of the "11 fl oz per hour".
You can multiply them ... since their value is ' 1 ', they won't
change the value of the "11 fl oz per hour", only the units.
(11 fl oz/hr) x (24 hr/da) x (1 gal / 128 fl oz)
= (11 x 24 x 1 / 128) (fl-oz - hr - gal) / (hr - da - fl-oz)
= 2.0625 gal/da
