Distance = speed rate x time
Speed rate = 120 miles per hour
Time = 3 hours
Replacing:
D = 120 mph x 3 h = 360 miles
The volume of a cuboid is given by length × width × height
We have:
Volume = 7.6 ft³
Height = 3x - 1
Length = x + 5
Width = x
Substituting these into the formula, we have:
7.6 = (3x - 1) (x + 5) (x)
7.6 = [3x² + 15x - x - 5] (x)
7.6 = [3x² + 14x - 5](x)
7.6 = 3x³ + 14x² - 5x
0 = 3x³ + 14x² - 5x - 7.6
Drawing the graph is one way of finding the solution (refer to the graph below):
We have three solutions (where the curve crosses the x-axis):
x = -4.9
x = -0.6
x = 0.8
Putting these solutions back into the context, since we are looking for the value of x which is part of measurement of length, we cannot have negative value, so we will take the value of x = 0.8 ft
Converting 0.8 ft into inches = 0.8 × 12 inches = 9.6 inches
Answer: x = 9.6 inches
Answer:
16 cm
Step-by-step explanation:
Suppose that x is the original width. If that original width is enlarged by a scale factor 5/2 that means that x is multiplied by 5/2 and after that multiplication we obtained new width, 40 cm.
Therefore,
x*(5/2) = 40
We multiply the equation by 2 and obtain:
x*5 = 40*2
5x = 80
Now we divide the equation by 5 and obtain:
x = 80/5
x = 16
We obtained that x, the original width was 16 cm
