irakobra [83]3 years ago
7 0

Ok, lets start with the top.

7/8 + (-2/3)

Thats equal to

7/8 - 2/3

The common denominator will be 24

21/24 - 16/24

Subtract

5/24

Now, to divide you multiply by the reciprocal, so

5/24 / 5/6

Becomes

5/24 * 6/5

Cross simplify and get your answer

1/4

A cubed-shaped box has its side lengths decreased by 3 cm, when this happens, the volume decreases by 1385cm^3. What is the side
mixer [17]

Answer:

Step-by-step explanation:

let side of cube=x cm

volume=x³ cm³

again side=(x-3) cm

volume=(x-3)³ cm³

x³-(x-3)³=1385

(a³-b³)=(a-b)(a²+ab+b²)

(x-x+3){x²+x(x-3)+(x-3)²}=1385

3(x^2+x²-3x+x²-6x+9)=1385

3(3x²-9x+9)=1385

9x²-27x+27=1385

9x²-27x+27-1385=0

9x²-27x-1358=0

x=\frac{27\pm\sqrt{(-27)^2-4*9*(-1358)} }{2*9} \\x=\frac{27\pm\sqrt{729+48888} }{18} \\or~x=\frac{27\pm\sqrt{49617} }{18} \\or~x=\frac{27\pm 222.749}{18} \\taking positive side only as negative sign gives negative length.\\or~x=\frac{27+222.749}{18} \\or~x\approx13.87

solmaris [256]
Short answer: B'C' has the same as BC
Let the slope of BC have a slope of m

m = (y2 - y1) / (x2 - x1)
y2 = 10
y1 = 5
x2 = 5
x1 = 3

m = (10 - 5)/(5 - 3)
m = 5 / 2
m = 2.5

Since the slope of BC is 2.5
The slope of B'C' = 2.5  <<<<<<<<<< answer
