So first, I would assign the small van a variable for how many people it can hold, or x.

So since it makes two trips,

2x

And since the other van can hold six more people,

2x + x + 6

And 57 people are transported:

3x + 6 = 57

We can then solve.

3x = 57 - 6

3x = 51

x = 17

So since we now know a small can hold 17 people, and we know that the larger van has 6 more seats, we can just say

17 + 6 = 23

So the large van has 23 seats.

Find the volume of a cube<br> whose surface area is 150<br> ft2?

Brrunno [24]

Given:

Surface area of cube = 150 ft²

To Find:

Volume of cube

Solution:

As here in Question we are given Surface area of cube is 150 sq. feet. So, firstly we have find the side of edge of cube. Let 'a' be the edge of the cube

We know that,

$\: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \sf \: \: \: \: Surface \: area_{(Cube)} = 6a^2 \\ \\$

Substituting the required values,

$\: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \sf \: \: \: \: 150 = 6a^2 \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \sf \: \: \: \: \frac{150}{6} = {a}^{2} \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \sf \: \: \: \: 25 = {a}^{2} \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \sf \: \: \: \: \sqrt{25} = a \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \sf \: \: \: \: { \underline{ \boxed{ \sf{ \pink{5 = a}}}} } \\ \\$

Edge of the cube is 5 feet

Now,

$\: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \sf \: \: \: \: Volume = (edge)^3 \\ \\ \: \: \: \: \dashrightarrow \sf \: \: \: \: Volume = (5)^3 \\ \\ \: \: \: \:\dashrightarrow \sf \: \: \: \: {\underline{\boxed{\sf{\pink{Volume =125 \: {ft}^{3}}}}}} \\ \\$
