Answer:
He did not
Step-by-step explanation:
if you put 6: 8 in a fraction 6/8, it doesn't have any relationship with 9/12
5/8=10×w this is my equation then i divide by 10 on both sides
w=6.25
Suppose the length of the card board was x cm by x cm
After squares of 4cm was cut from the corner, the dimension for the box will be:
length=(x-8) cm
width=(x-8) cm
height=4 cm
thus the volume will be:
V=length*width*height
V=4×(x-8)×(x-8)=144
x²-16x+64=36
this can be simplified to form a quadratic equation given by:
x²-16x+28=0
solving the quadratic equation we get:
x=2 or x=14
Thus we conclude that the original dimensions was:
length=14 cm ; width=14 cm
Answer:
Bob forgot to distribute 3 to 1.50 in the parentheses
Step-by-step explanation:
Bob made the mistake in his first step.
In the equation 3(x + 1.50) = 30, the 3 has to be distributed to both x and 1.50.
But, Bob only distributed it to x, which led him to get the wrong answer.
So, Bob's mistake when solving was that he forgot to distribute the 3 to 1.50
11,13,23,17,3 that's the answer man
