How to simply 4 (2x)^3

Kruka [31]

Remember the order of operations. The first step in this problem will be to solve the exponent.

Take (2x)^3. Remember that since there are parentheses around 2x, that means you have to cube 2 and x.

(2x)^3 = 2^3 * x^3 = 8x^3

Now multiply that answer by 4 to finish simplifying.

8x^3 * 4 = 32 x^3

Your answer should be: 32x^3

If it 8 inch candle burns at 7/10 inch per hour and a 6 inch candle Burns at 1/5 inch per hour after how many hours would both c

zavuch27 [327]

We must solve

$8 - \frac{7}{10}x = 6 - \frac{1}{5}x \\ or \\ 80 - 7x = 60 - 2x \\ now \\ 20 = 5x \: so \: x = 4 \\$
Means the candles will be the same size in 4 hours
