The volume of a cuboid is given by length × width × height
We have:
Volume = 7.6 ft³
Height = 3x - 1
Length = x + 5
Width = x
Substituting these into the formula, we have:
7.6 = (3x - 1) (x + 5) (x)
7.6 = [3x² + 15x - x - 5] (x)
7.6 = [3x² + 14x - 5](x)
7.6 = 3x³ + 14x² - 5x
0 = 3x³ + 14x² - 5x - 7.6
Drawing the graph is one way of finding the solution (refer to the graph below):
We have three solutions (where the curve crosses the x-axis):
x = -4.9
x = -0.6
x = 0.8
Putting these solutions back into the context, since we are looking for the value of x which is part of measurement of length, we cannot have negative value, so we will take the value of x = 0.8 ft
Converting 0.8 ft into inches = 0.8 × 12 inches = 9.6 inches
Answer: x = 9.6 inches
Answer:
The correct answer is B
Step-by-step explanation:
its is B because when dividing fractions the division symbol changes into a multiplication sign and the fraction on the right flips

Answer:
t=p*34
Step-by-step explanation:
t=p*T, where T is the bill for the table Joe waited on, p is the percent tip and t is the tip left for the waiter
In this situation, the bill is 34, so lets plug that in
t=p*34
Answer:
414
Step-by-step explanation:
n is our variable, so substitute n for 26.
50 + (14*26)
264 + 50 = 414
