Option D:

160 plastic cubes can fit into the box.

Solution:

Convert mixed fraction into improper fraction.

Length of the box = 4 ft

Width of the box = 2\frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{2} ft

Height of the box = 2 ft

Volume of the box = length × width × height

                                 $=4\times\frac{5}{2} \times2

                                 = 20 ft³

Volume of the box = 20 ft³

Length of the plastic cube = \frac{1}{2} ft

Volume of the cube = length × length × length

                                 $=\frac{1}{2} \times\frac{1}{2} \times\frac{1}{2}

                                 $=\frac{1}{8} \ \text{ft}^3

Volume of the cube = 0.125 ft³

$\text{Number of plastic cubes}=\frac{\text{Volume of box}}{\text{Volume of cube}}      

                                        $=\frac{20}{0.125}

                                        = 160

Number of plastic cubes = 160

Hence 160 plastic cubes can fit into the box.

Option D is the correct answer.

Write the equation in slope-intercept form of the line that has a slope of 2 and contains
mina [271]

Equation in slope-intercept form is y = 2x - 6

Step-by-step explanation:

  • Step 1: Given slope of the line, m = 2. Form an equation y = mx + b

⇒ y = 2x + b ---- (1)

  • Step 2: The line passes through the point (4,2). So it will satisfy the equation. Find b by substituting x = 4 and y = 2.

⇒ 2 = 2 × 4 + b = 8 + b

⇒ b = -6

  • Step 3: Form the slope-intercept equation.

⇒ y = 2x - 6
