A cube has side length x. One side of the cube is increased by 4 inches, and another side is doubled. The volume of the new rect

angular prism is 450 cubic inches. The equation 2x3+8x=450 can be used to find x. What was the side length of the original cube? Use a graphing calculator and a system of equations to find the answer.4 inches 5 inches 9 inches 10 inches

Check the picture below.

from that system of equations, we get x ≈ 5.84.

recall that for a system of equations, the solution is where the graph meet.

Let

x-------> the length side  of the original cube

we have

2x^{3} +8x=450\\2x^{3}=450-8x

Divide by 2 both sides

x^{3}=225-4x

The system of equations is equal to

y=x^{3} --------> equation 1

y=225-4x --------> equation 2

using a graphing tool

see the attached figure  

we know that

the solution of the system of equations is the intersection both graphs

therefore

the solution is

x=5.86\ in

therefore

<u>the answer is</u>

5.86\ inches

Honey and Money are twin brothers. Mother wants to equally divide a rectangular shaped cake of 5cm wide and 6cm long. Find the l
tatuchka [14]

Answer:

Length of rectangular cake = 5 cm

Breadth of rectangular cake = 6 cm

Area of rectangle = 5 cm × 6 cm =30 cm²

If cake is equally distributed between Honey and Money, then areas of two parts should be equal.

So, Amount of cake that Honey and money got \frac{30}{2}=15

Share of each (Honey and Money)=15 cm²

So, if the third cake if it was cut diagonally ,the cake must have some height.

Let the height of cake be H.

So, Height of third cake =\sqrt{L^2+B^2+H^2}\\\\=\sqrt{5^2+6^2+H^2}\\\\=\sqrt{61+H^2}

If , H=0 that is height is negligible having 0 thickness,

Then the Length of third cake, which is divided into two parts=√61=7.81 cm

I WILL MARK YOU BRAINLIEST!!
Butoxors [25]

Answer:

Yes

Step-by-step explanation:

There is a proportional relationship between x and y it's 5.

Think about it when x is 1 y is 5

When x is 2 y is 10

When x is 5 y is 25

When x is 7 y is 35

To get this for this question all you have to do is multiply x by 5 to get y.

That's how you know it's proportional.

Hope this helps!!!

1) the slope of the line is where x=0 and the y coordinate is 1
2) plant 2 of the coordinate pairs on the graph, then from there find where the y intercept passes through where x=0
3) slope form is y=mx+b
y=-3x+9 if you use (-3,9)
plant it on the graph and then write a brief explanation

I'm not good with intigers, but if you added two negative intigers together wouldn't it still be negative? If you added -1 to -2 you'd get -3. It would always be less than the two original integers.
