Answer:

3 inches

Step-by-step explanation:

The volume of a rectangular prism is the product of length, width, and height. Fill in the information you have in the formula, and solve.

... V = LWH

... 258 3/4 = (7 1/2)×W×(11 1/2)

... W = (258 3/4)/((7 1/2)(11 1/2))

This computation can be done using fractions, but it is probably more easily done using decimal numbers. Of course, you know that 3/4 = 0.75 and 1/2 = 0.5. Then ...

... W = 258.75/(7.5×11.5) = 3

The width is 3 inches.

How many solutions are there to the system of equations?
hichkok12 [17]

Answer: The system of equations has NO SOLUTION.

Step-by-step explanation:

The equation of the line in Slope-Intercept form is:

y=mx+b

Where "m" is the slope and "b" is the y-intercept.

Given the following system of equations:

\left \{ {{4x-5y=5} \atop {-0.08x+0.10y=0.10}} \right.

Write the first equation and solve for "y" in order to express it in Slope-Intercept form:

4x-5y=5\\\\-5y=-4x+5\\\\y=\frac{-4x}{-5}+\frac{5}{-5}\\\\y=0.8x-1

You can identify that:

m=0.8\\b=-1

Apply the same procedure with the second equation. Then:

-0.08x+0.10y=0.10\\\\0.10y=0.08x+0.10\\\\y=\frac{0.08x}{0.10} +\frac{0.10}{0.10}\\\\y=0.8x+1

You can identify that:

m=0.8\\b=1

The slopes of both lines are equal, therefore  the lines are parallel and the system has NO SOLUTION.
