L=w+4 this shows the length is 4 inches longer than width
h=w-2 this shows the height is 2 inches shorter than the width
volume=lwh
so 240=lwh=(w+4)(w)(w-2)
simplify and solve to find the width then you can use that to find the other values as well.

Find three consecutive even numbers whose sum is 1674.
Norma-Jean [14]

Answer:

556, 558, and 560

Step-by-step explanation:

1674/3 = 558 (An even number, yay)

So 558 + 558 + 558 = 1674

Subtract two from the first one and add two to the last (still equal)

556 + 558 + 560

adding them equals 1674 so the answer is

556, 558, and 560

Gideon is painting all sides of a square pyramid-shaped decoration at the top of his fence post. A net of the decoration is show
frez [133]
Gideon is painting all sides thus we find the overall area of the square pyramid given in the picture. A square pyramid is a polyhedron that consists of a square and 4 triangles. To solve the area that Gideon will have to paint, we can calculate the area of the square and the area of the triangles then add these two values of area. We proceed as follows:
Area of the square = s^2 where s is the measure of the side
Area of the square = 4^2 = 16 in^2

Area of the triangle= 1/2 bh where b is the base of the triangle and h is height of the triangle
Area of the triangle = 1/2 (4) (5) = 10 in^2
We multiply the area of the triangle to four in order to obtain the total area of the triangles.
Total area of the triangles = 4 x 10 = 40 in^2

We then add the two areas,
Total Area = 16 + 40 = 56 in^2

Thus the total area that Gideon will have to paint for one square pyramid is 56 in^2.
