HELP PLEASE! Robert needs to cut four shelves from a board that is 2.5 meters long. The second shelf is 18 centimeters longer th

an twice the length of the first shelf. The third shelf is 12 centimeters shorter than the first shelf. The remaining shelf is 4 centimeters longer than the first shelf. If Robert must use the entire 2.5 meter board for the shelves, what is the length of the second shelf?

Let us assume the length of the first shelf = x
Then
The length of the second shelf = 2x + 18
Length of the third shelf = x -12
Length of the fourth shelf = x + 4
The total length of the board = 2.5 meters.
                                              = ( 2.5 * 100) cm
                                               = 250 cm
Then we can write the equation as
x + 2x + 18 + x - 12 + x + 4 = 250
5x + 10 = 250
After dividing both sides of the equation by 5 we get
x + 2 = 50
x = 50 - 2
   = 48
Then
The length of the second shelf = 2x + 18
                                                 = 2(48) + 18
                                                 = 96 + 18
                                                 = 116
So the length of the second shelf is 116 cm.

Huh, this is presented pretty interesting to me.

To start with, if you actually had no idea what the answer to this question was,  you wouldn't pick B or C because x has to be close to 91°.  In this particular quadrilateral, it's especially important that we focus on the fact, "x - 15."  This means that x has to be higher initially to be subracted to equal 91, or the opposite angle.

In order to subtract to 91, the answer would have to be 106, or D.  This is a hunch, but I have a suspicion that angle B and D are going to be the same, being that their on opposite sides of the figure.

Hope this helps!  If you have further questions, let me know.

Step-by-step explanation:

cubing both sides (p+1)^3= (7)^3

=> p^3+1/p^3+ 3(p+1/p) = 343

=> p^3+ 1/p^3 + 3(7)= 343

=> p^3+1/p^3= 343-21

=> p^3+1/p^3= 322

hope it helps
