A recycling plant processes an average of 1/3

1 answer:

8 0

The solution to this problem is to convert 1/3 tons/minute to the number of tons/day.

This is done by multiplying 1/3 tons/minute by 60 minutes/hour and by 24 hours/day.

Looking the units of measure, we see that the minutes will cancel and the hours will cancel; and we will be left with tons/day. To determine how many, multiply (1/3) x 60 x 24. I will leave the calculation to you, but you should get 480.

Answer:

2x + 2x+2 = 3x + 1

4x + 2 = 3x + 1

Subtract 3x from both sides

4x - 3x + 2 = 3x - 3x + 1

x + 2 = 1

Subtract 2 from both sides

x + 2 - 2 = 1 - 2

x = -1

Answer: $158cm^2$

Step-by-step explanation:

You can use the following formula to calculate the surface area of the right rectangular prism:

$SA = 2(wl +lh + hw)$

Where "w" is the width, "l" is the length, and "h" is the height.

Knowing that this rigth rectangular prism has a length of 8 centimeters, a width of 3 centimeters and a height of 5 centimeters, you can substitute these values into the formula.

Then, the surface of the right rectangular prism is:

$SA = 2[(3cm*8cm) + (8cm*5cm) + (5cm*3cm)]\\\\SA=158cm^2$
