Answer:

36UNITS

Step-by-step explanation:

If point V lies between U and W, then UV+VW = UW

given parameters

UV = 2x-4

VW = 4x+10

UW = 9x-9

Substituting the given functions in the formula first, we will have;

2x-4+4x+10 = 9x-9

6x+6 = 9x-9

Collect like terms

6x-9x = -9-6

-3x = -15

x = -15/-3

x = 5

Substitute x = 5 into UW.

Since UW = 9x-9

UW = 9(5)-9

UW = 45-9

UW = 36

jasenka [17]
To calculate to volume of a rectangular prism you use the formula l × w × h = V

l, w, and h are the sides, and V is the volume

So... 24 × 10 × h = 2,880

h = 2,880 / 240

h = 12

Which of the following shows the correct value of 50
Orlov [11]

Answer:

None of the options is correct

Step-by-step explanation:

It is important to know that he expression a < x < b means that x is greater than a and less than b. So, for finding the correct value let's analyse each option.

A. 4 < 50 < 5

50 is greater than 4 but it is not less than 5, so, option A is incorrect.

B. 7 < 50 < 8

50 is greater than 7 but it is not less than 8, so, option B is incorrect.

C. 8 < 50 < 9

50 is greater than 8 but it is not less than 9, so, option C is incorrect.

D. 10 < 50 < 11

50 is greater than 10 but it is not less than 11, so, option D is incorrect.

Thus, none of the options is correct.
