Let the width be w. Volume=96=w(w-2)(w+8).
w³+6w²-16w-96=0=w²(w+6)-16(w+6)=(w²-16)(w+6). So the only positive root is w=4 inches.
The dimensions are 4” wide, height is 2”, length is 12”.

Please help I don’t wanna add a bunch of points Bc nobody is helping me I’m just wasting them.
Ede4ka [16]

Answer:Cross multiply and solve for x.

x/6 = 5/1.25

let the height of building be h ft

h/6 = 60/15

h = 6(60/15) = 24

the building is 24 ft high

Step-by-step explanation:

Well first let’s covert the ft to in- 5ft is 60 in and 6ft is 72 in. Then we want to set up 2 fractions based on height and shadow, so we have 60/15=x/72 (we put x because that’s what we’re trying to find). Then we do cross multiplication so now we have 15x=4320. We divide 15, so now we have 4320/15=288. So the building is 288 in tall or 24ft tall! Glad to help! :)

How many 3 digit numbers can be formed from the digits 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9 which are divisible by 5 and none of the digits is re
creativ13 [48]

Number of 3 digit numbers can be formed from the digits 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9 which are divisible by 5 and none of the digits is repeated is 20

A permutation is an act of arranging the objects or numbers in order. Combinations are the way of selecting the objects or numbers from a group of objects or collection, in such a way that the order of the objects does not matter.

Given,

The digits = 2,3,5,6,7 and 9

The number should be divisible by 5 and the digits cannot be repeated

When the unit digit of the number is either 5 or 0, then the number will be divisible by 5.

Number of possible ways to fill the unit place = 1

Number of possible ways to fill the tens place = 5

Number of possible ways to fill the hundredth place = 4

Number of three digit number can be formed =4×5×1=20

Hence, the number of 3 digit numbers can be formed from the digits 2, 3, 5, 6, 7 and 9 which are divisible by 5 and none of the digits is repeated is 20
