Answer:  2x + 15 = 243

                          x = $114

<u>Step-by-step explanation:</u>

Gas Tank: $15

Matthew: x

Devin: x

Gas Tank + Matthew + Devin = Total

       15      +       x        +     x    =  243

                                         2x   =  228

                                           x   =   114

I need help understanding square roots
Vlad [161]

I wonder if you mean to write \sqrt[3]{256} in place of 3\sqrt{256}...

If you meant what you wrote, then we have

\sqrt{256}=\sqrt{16^2}=16

3\sqrt{256}=3\cdot16=48

If you meant to write \sqrt[3]{256} (the cube root of 256), then we could go on to have

\sqrt[3]{256}=\sqrt[3]{16^2}=\sqrt[3]{(4^2)^2}=\sqrt[3]{4^4}=\sqrt[3]{4^3\cdot4}=4\sqrt[3]4
