Answer:
3
Step-by-step explanation:
if you plug in 3 for x, it becomes 2(3)-7=-1
then 6-7=-1
-1=-1
This is a simple problem
First, take common sense and apply it here. The problem doesn't specifically tell you what the shape ACTUALLY is, but we can also apply what we know about geometry here, as well as what we know in general. Fish tanks most commonly come in 2 shapes: Square's and Rectangles. Fish tanks are what we call "3D" objects (meaning it's just not flat like a piece of paper", and the shapes are known as "Cubes and Rectangular Prisms".
Well, we know that squares/cubes have to have even sides. The problem states the tank is 5(l) by 2(w) by 2(h). This means it CAN'T be a cube, thus meaning it's a rectangular prism.
Now, to calculate volume, we have to know the formula. For this, the formula for volume is as follows: V=lwh
This means Volume=Length*Width*Height
So, do replace the words with what you know you already have. Let's make a list:
Length=5
Width=2
Height=2
V=lwh-----V=5*2*2
Now, work it out. 5*2=10*2=20, Left to right
Your answer here is V=20
~Hope this helps!
I believe you would multiply it by 2 and add on the multiples after you .
Answer: 160
Step-by-step explanation: She gave her sister one fifth of the collection; one fifth written as a percent is 20% (I did one and divided it by five). To turn 20% to a decimal I didved by 100 to get 0.20. I multiplied 200 and 0.20 and got 40. 40 is the amount of shells given to her sister, so you would subtract 40 from 200 to find how many shells were left. 200-40=160.
