Answer:

Option C - 27 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

Given : An open box is formed by cutting squares with side lengths of 5 inches from each corner of a square piece of paper.

To find : What is the side length of the original paper if the box has volume of 1445 cubic inches?

Solution :

The volume of the box is V=L\times B\times H

We have given V=1445 cubic inches.

Since, 5 inches were cut from each corner of the square piece of paper,

So, H=5 inches

Since, the original paper is square and the length cut from each side is the same, the resulting base is still square.

So, L=B

Substitute the values in the formula,

1445=L\times L\times 5

L^2=\frac{1445}{5}

L^2=289

L=\sqrt{289}

L=17

Since we folded the paper from each side, we need to add the length of opposite sides (i.e. 2 instances) of the folded part to get  the original length.

The length of the original paper is l=17+5+5=27 inches.

Therefore, the side length of the original paper is 27 inches.

So, Option C is correct.

Y’all what’s this I’m so confused help
Snowcat [4.5K]

Answer:

x = 66

Step-by-step explanation:

√(x - 2) + 3 = 11

Subtract 3 from both sides:  √(x - 2) = 8

Square both sides:                   x - 2 = 64

Add 2 to both sides:                      x = 66

Ivenika [448]
For this case, the first thing you should do is define a variable.
 We have then:
 x: number of passengers remaining who can board the plane.
 We have as data:
 1) They can board up to 149 passengers
 2) There are 96 passengers currently aboard.
 Writing inequality we have:
 x + 96  \leq  149

 Answer:
 
An inequality that can be used to determine how many more people can board is:
 
x + 96  \leq  149

Instructions: Find the missing side of the triangle.<br> 24 and 7
ANTONII [103]
We can use the Pythagorean theorem to solve this. The Pythagorean theorem is a^2 + b^2 = c^2. We already have a and b, we need to find c. 24^2 + 7^2 is 625. Then, we need to find the square root of 625 to find c. The answer is 25. x = 25.
