Given:
2 rectangular prism.
same height
square bases
Box A Box B
Square Base side 2 ft 0.75 ft
Height 4 ft 4 ft
Solving for the space inside each rectangular prism, we need to find its volume.
Volume of a rectangular prism = length * width * height
Box A:
Volume = 2 ft * 2 ft * 4 ft = 16 cubic feet
Box B:
Volume = 0.75 ft * 0.75 ft * 4 ft = 2.25 cubic feet
Box A - Box B = difference in space
16 cubic feet - 2.25 cubic feet = 13.75 cubic feet
Box A contains 13.75 cubic feet more space than Box B.
Hello there! So, the item has a 20% discount, but Juan still had to pay 80% for the item. To find the amount he paid, all you have to do is multiply the price by the percentage. We multiply by 80%, because he still had to pay the portion of the price. 80 * 80% (0.8) is 64. The. Juan paid $64.
50,000 is the nearest ten thousand.
Let x be the yearly salary of an architect. Then the yearly salary of a lawyer is 2x-20000.
We can build an equation now! x+(2x-20000)=211000, because the yearly salary of an architect plus the yearly salary of a lawyer is 211000.
We combine like terms to get 3x-20000=211000.
We add 20000 to both sides to get 3x=231000.
We divide both sides by 3 to get x=77000, so the average yearly salary of a lawyer is 77000.
Then, the average yearly salary of an architect is 2(77000)-20000=154000-20000=134000, so the average yearly salary of an architect is 134000.
Hey there!
x^2 + 4x = 12
SUBTRACT 12 to BOTH SIDES
x^2 + 4x - 12 = 12 - 12
SIMPLIFY IT
x^2 + 4x - 12 = 0
FACTOR the LEFT SIDE of your EQUATION
(x - 2)(x + 6) = 0
• EQUATION #1: x - 2 = 0
OR
• EQUATION #2: x + 6 = 0
SIMPLIFY IT
• EQUATION #1 answer: x = 2
OR
• EQUATION #2 answer: x = -6
OVERALL ANSWER: x = 2 or x = -6
YOUR ANSWER: x = 2 (Option A.)
Good luck on your assignment and enjoy your day!
