Answer:

64 crates

Step-by-step explanation:

Smaller Cube Side Length = 2 1/2 feet, or, 2.5 feet

Larger Container (Cube) Side Length = 10 feet

We find volume of larger container and find volume of small crates. We divide the large volume by volume of each crate. This will give us number of crates we can fit.

Volume of Cube = x^3

Where x is the side length of the cube

Now,

Small Crate Volume = (2.5)^3 = 15.625 cubic feet

Large Container Volume = 10^3 = 1000 cubic feet

Number of crates that would fit = 1000/15.625 = 64

So, 64 crates will fit in the largest shipping container

Over summer, a dam’s water volume reduces from 20 megalitres to 4 megalitres. What fraction of the water in the dam has been los
musickatia [10]

Hey there! I’m happy to help!

Let’s first subtract 4 from 20 to see how much was lost.

20-4=16

Now, we see that 16 is a certain percent of twenty that we want to find. When talking about percents, the word “is” represents an equal sign. So, we can write this equation. We will have p represent our prevent.

16=20p (16 is a certain percent of 20)

Now, we solve by dividing both sides of the equation by 20 to isolate the p.

p=0.8

0.8 is 80% or 4/5, so 4/5 of the dam water has been lost.

Have a wonderful day! :D

Write an exponential function that passes through the points (0, 3) and (-1, 6)
FinnZ [79.3K]
Standard form of an exponential function is y=ab^x
when x=0, y=3, 3=ab^0, so you can figure out that a=3
when x=-1, y=6, 6=3b^(-1), b^(-1)=2, b=1/2
so the equation is y=3(1/2)^x
