1. You must use the formula for calculate the volume of a rectangular prism, which is:

 V=(h)(l)(w)

 V: It is the volumen of the rectangular prism (V=1152 inches³).
 h: It is the height of the rectangular prism (h=18-w).
 l:It is the lenght of the rectangular prism (l=2w+4).

 2. When you substitute these calues into the formula, you obtain:

 V=(h)(l)(w)
 1152=(18-w)(2w+4)(w)
 (18-w)(2w+4)(w)-1152=0

 3. Then, you should mutiply them:

 36w²-2w³+72w-4w²-1152=0
 32w²-2w³+72w-1152=0

 4. When you factor, you obtain:

 2(w-16)(w-6)(w+6)

 w1=16
 w2=6
 w3=-6

 5. The problem says that the height is greater than the width, therefore, the widht is:

 w=6 inches

 6. The length is:

 l=2w+4
 l=2(6)+4
 l=16 inches

 7. And the height is:

 h=18-w
 h=18-6
 h=12 inches

 What are the dimensions of the bag?

 The dimensions of the bag are:

 l=16 inches
 h=12 inches
 w=6 inches

How many three​-digit numbers may be formed using elements from the set ​{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7​} if no element may be used more t
PSYCHO15rus [73]

Answer: 90

Step-by-step explanation:

set: ​{1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7​} = 7 numbers | 3 even

no element may be used more than once in a number = distinct elements

and the number must be​ even = must finish with a even number.

This way, we should start with the last number, which we have 3 possibilities.

Since we have 7 numbers in total, we have 6 options for the first one and then 5 options for the second one.

So, we have 6.5.3 = 90

Niko is 3 times as old as Lila. Niko's age is the same as adding Lila's age to the product of 3 and Amber's age. Niko is 45 year
Ymorist [56]

Answer:

Kameron is 50 years old.

Step-by-step explanation:

We can make equations and start filling in what we already know, assuming n is Niko's age, L is Lila's age, a is Amber's age, and k is Kamerons age.

Our first equation:

n = 3L

We know that Niko is 45, so

45 = 3L

Divide both sides by 3:

L = 15

So, Lila is 15 years old.

Another equation:

n = L + 3a

We already know Niko and Lila's age:

45 = 15 + 3a

Subtract 15 from both sides:

30 = 3a

Divide both sides by 3:

a = 10

So Amber is 10 years old.

Another equation:

k = 2(a + L)

We know Amber and Lila's age:

k = 2(10 + 15)

k = 2(25)

k = 50

So Kameron is 50 years old.

Hope this helped!
