We need to compute for the length of each trophy given that one trophy is 5 inches wider than the other.
Let x be the length of the first trophy.
Let x+5 be the length of the second trophy
The solution is shown below:
x + (x + 5) = 17
x + x + 5 =17
2x =17 -5
2x = 12
x = 12/2
x=6 (for the first trophy)
x + 5 = 6+5 = 11 (for the second trophy)

The first trophy is 6 inches wide while the second trophy is 11 inches wide.

Answer:

SA = 470 m²

volume = 494 m³

Step-by-step explanation:

<u>Individual areas</u>

Back = 4 x 19 = 76 m²

Top = 5 x 19 = 95 m²

sloped side = 5 x 19 = 95 m²

base = 8 x 19 = 152 m²

end = (4 x 5) + 1/2(3 x 4) = 26 m²

Total SA = 76 + 95 + 95 + 152 + (2 x 26) = 470 m²

<u>Volume</u>

volume = (4 x 5 x 19) + 1/2(3 x 4 x 19) = 494 m³

John had 5/8 of a pizza left after a party. He gave 3/8 of a pizza to his friends to take home and kept the rest.
lorasvet [3.4K]

I'm assuming your trying to find how much pizza he has left.

 You need to subtract the two fractions because the denominators are already the same.

When subtracting fractions, you leave the denominator and regularly subtract the numerator.

Your answer will be 2/8 which equals 1/4th
