Multiply the dimensions by 1.5 and Pamela's suitcase becomes 42" x 24" x 12". 

<span>Volume of 28" x 16" x 8": 3584 in^3 </span>

<span>Volume of 42" x 24" x 12": 12,096 in^3 </span>

<span>The volume ratio is 3.375, and yes, you have to cube it.</span>

ok


volume=length times width times height
her current suitcase volume is 28*16*8=3584 cubic inches

her new one will have each dimention mulipled by 1 and 1/2 or 1.5

so
newV=(1.5*28)*(1.5*16)*(1.5*8)
newV=12096 cubic inches


ratio is 12096/3584=3.375=1.5*1.5*1.5


the ratio is new:old=3.375:1

F = 1.8C + 32 what is c
zepelin [54]

Step-by-step explanation:

right.

and therefore c is in this case the name of the variable in the equation (or function).

add on.

ah, do you mean (and does this strange problem description mean) that you want the reverse formula : to get C out of F ?

in that case

F = 1.8c + 32 = 9/5 × c + 32

F - 32 = 9/5 × c

5/9 × (F - 32) = c

or

c = 5/9 × (F - 32)

that's it.

qaws [65]
We know that the final price after a discount of 20% is $12,590. If the original price was x, the price after discount is 80%<span> of x (</span>100%<span> - 20%). OP (original price) multiplied by (1-20/100) equals $15,737.5

I hope this helps.</span>

First you need to find the 3rd angle of the triangle
180 - 86 - 46 = 48

and then subtract the answer by 180 (because it’s a straight line)
180 - 48 = 132

so 132
