1) we calculate the volume of the first carton:
volume=length x width x height
volume=3 ft * 2 ft * 2 ft=12 ft³

Therefore: 
A machine can fill 12 ft³ in 3 seconds.

2) we calculate the volume of the second carton. 
volume=length x width x heigth
volume=4 ft * 5 ft * 6 ft=120 ft³

3) we calculate the time that the machine needs for fill the second carton with packing material by the rule of three.

12 ft³---------------------3 seconds
120 ft³--------------------      x

x=(120 ft³ * 3 seconds) / 12 ft³=30 seconds.

answer: 30 seconds.

Show the work for INVERSE, thank you. I got 17 but I did it wrong because it has to be 7
Yuri [45]

12 - x = 5

Subtract 12 from both sides

12 - 12 - x = 5 - 12

- x = - 7

Divide both sides by -1

-x/-1 = -12/-1

x = 7

Enter numbers to evaluate ‐13−23.
Nana76 [90]

Answer:

- 13 - 23 = - 13 + (-23)

= -36

- 13 - (- 23) = - 13 + 23

= 10

Step-by-step explanation:

In any order of operation (i.e. addition, subtraction, multiplication, devision) the following rules apply for two values for instance <em>a </em>and <em>b </em>where <em>a > b </em>:

→ <em>If +a and +b then the final sign will be + (positive)</em>

→ <em>If +a and -b then the final sign will be + (positive) since a>b</em>

→ <em>If -a and +b then the final sign will be - (negative) since a>b</em>

→ <em>If -a and -b then the final sign will be - (negative)</em>

In the given question we have two cases.

Case 1:

- 13 - 23 = - 13 + (-23)     <em>→ since it is given that we add a negative value of -23, therefore it keeps its sign (so this would be a negative addition i.e. adding two negative values)</em>

Thus we have:

- 13 - 23 = - 13 + (-23)

= -36

Case 2:

- 13 - (- 23) = - 13 + 23     <em>→ since we stated earlier that - and - gives positive sign (i.e. we subtract two negative values)</em>

Thus we have:

- 13 - (- 23) = - 13 + 23

= 10

<em>So we can see that: </em>

<em>Adding two Negative values gives a Negative value (Case 1)</em>

Subtracting two Negative values gives a Positive value (Case 2)
