Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
For this exercise it is important to remember the following:
Given the following expression:
You can notice that the radicand (the number inside the square root) is negative. Therefore, in order to simplify the expression, you need to follow these steps:
1. Replace with
and simplify:
2. Descompose 12 into its prime factors:
3. Substitute into the expression:
4. Since , you can simplify it:
The number of bottles in a full box is 12.
<u><em>Explanation</em></u>
Suppose, the number of bottles in a full box is
So, the number of bottles in <u>three</u> full boxes
Now, two more boxes are added, both of which have <u>one fewer bottle than the other three</u>. So, the number of bottles in these two boxes
As there were 9 bottles initially and now there are 67 bottles in the fridge, <em><u>so the equation will be</u></em>....
Thus, the number of bottles in a full box is 12.
