Jill’s teacher asked her to construct a rectangular prism from unit cubes. She has built the structure about. In order for Jill

to complete her assignment, how many unit cubes will Jill need to add to the below structure? Explain how you were able to figure out how many more cubes will be needed. Is there a different way to solve this situation?

Answer:

<u />

  • <u>36 cubes</u>
  • <u>There are several forms to figure it out: see two different ways explained below.</u>

Explanation:

The first way to figure out <em>how many more cubes Jill will need to add to complete the structure </em>until forming a <em>rectangular prism</em>  is to add the cubes from column to colum,

The first column is complete: it has four rows each with 4 cubes.

The second column (the one next to the right of the first column) has three rows. Then Jill has to add one more row. This is 4 cubes.

The third column has two rows. Then, Jill will need to add two rows with 4 cubes each, for a total of 8 cubes. So far, the count is 4 + 8 = 12 cubes.

The fourth and fifth columns have just one row. Then, Jill will need 3 rows for each column, making it 2 × 3 × 4 = 24 cubes.

The total final count is 12 + 24 = 36 cubes. ← answer

There are different ways to figure out the number of cubes needed to complete the rectangular prism. This is another one:

How many cubes shall the complete pyramid have? : 4 × 4 × 5 = 80 (length × width × height).

How many cubes does the shown incomplete structure have?: 4×4 + 3×4 + 2×4 + 4 + 4 = 16 + 12 + 8 + 4 + 4 = 44.

Difference: 80 - 44 = 36 cubes. ← answer

Will Mark Brainliest!!! Which statement represents the simplified form of the given equation and correctly describes the solutio
Iteru [2.4K]

The statement 14 \neq 15 no solutions represents the simplified form of the given equation 6x + 14 = 3(2x + 5). Hence Option A is correct

<u>Solution:</u>

Given, equation is 6x + 14 = 3(2x + 5).

We have to find the correct options that represents the simplified form of the given equation and correctly describes the solution.

So, now let us simplify the given equation  

⇒6x + 14 = 3(2x + 5) ⇒ 6x + 14 = 6x + 15 ⇒ 6x – 6x + 14 = 15 ⇒ 14 ≠ 15

As L.H.S not equals with R.H.S, no value of x can satisfy the equation and there will be no solution for given equation.

Hence, option A is correct.

What would the first step be in solving the inequality: -y (less than or greater than sign) 136
Alex73 [517]

"-y (less than or greater than sign) 136" translates into two separate inequalities:


-y < 136 and -y > 136.


You want to solve for y in each case. To do this, multiply each inequality by "-1" and then immediately change the direction of the inequality sign.


For example: -1(-y < 136) => y > -136.

A leaky faucet is losing water and is filling a 8-gallon bucket every 25 hours.At this rate,how many gallons of water will the f
Angelina_Jolie [31]

The rate of 8 gallons every 25 hours means that the faucet fills \frac{8}{25} gallons every hour.

Multiply the unit rate for the number of hours you're interested in to find

\dfrac{8}{25}\cdot 13 = \dfrac{104}{25}
