Answer: 2x-6
Work Shown:
john = x
sam = x-3 since he scored 3 fewer than john
rob = 2*(sam) = 2(x-3) = 2*x-2*3 = 2x-6
Answer:
5 should be subtracted from each term
Step-by-step explanation:
Cross multiply,
1 * (11 - x) = 2*(8-x)
11 -x = 2*8 - 2*x
11 - x = 16 - 2x
Subtract 11 from both sides,
-x = 16 - 2x - 11
-x = 5 - 2x
Add 2x to both sides
-x +2x = 5 - 2 + 2x
x = 5
Answer:
Question 1 = c) Medium: 88 ft²
Question 2 = d) 46.7 ft³
Step-by-step explanation:
Question 1
We would be solving this question by finding the surface area of the tent. The shape of the tent is a square based pyramid.
The surface area of a square based pyramid(tent) =
a² + 2ah
Where in the diagram,
a = base length = 4 ft
h = height of the pyramid (tent ) = 9ft
Surface area = 4² + 2 × 4 × 9
= 16 + 72
= 88ft²
Therefore, the size tarp should she purchase is Medium: 88 ft²
Question 2
For question 2, from the attached diagram, we can see that the diagram is a square based pyramid.
To calculate the amount of water that would fill the square based pyramid, we would have to find the Volume of the tent(square based pyramid).
The formula for the Volume of the tent(square based pyramid) = 1/3(a²h)
Where a = base edge
h = height of the pyramid.
From the diagram,
a = base edge => 4ft.
From the question,
h = height of the tent is given as how tall the tent is = 8.75ft.
Therefore, 1/3(a²h)
1/3 × (4ft)²× 8.75ft
= 46.67ft³
Approximately = 46.7ft³
Therefore, the amount of water it would it take to fill the tent, if the tent is 8.75 ft tall is 46.7ft³
The area of the table is 3.75 feet
The boxes are .83333 feet by .83333 feet so that area is .69
.69x3 is 2.07 so yes they will fit on top of the table
