500 = 10x + 2 * 15 * 5 + 15x
500 = 25x + 150
500 - 150 = 25x
350 = 25x
x = 14
Triangular ends: 14 * 10 = 140
Base rectangle: 14 * 15 = 210
side rectangles: 5 * 15 * 2 = 150
140 + 210 + 150 =
Answer:
1,000
+ 900
+ 20
+ 0
+ 0.2
+ 0.09
+ 0.002
+ 0.0003
Step-by-step explanation:
one thousand nine hundred twenty and two thousand nine hundred twenty-three ten-thousandths
7x - 5 = 30
* add 5 to both sides
7x = 30 + 5
7x = 35
* divided both sides by 7
(7/7)x = 35/7
<u><em>x = 5</em></u>
The first answer, using a number line, is a good answer.
I have two other ways:
Way #1:
5 stones is more than 3 stones.
5 gallons is greater than 3 gallons.
5 pounds is greater than 3 pounds.
5 puppies is greater than 3 puppies.
5 hamburgers is greater than 2 hamburgers.
5 schoolbuses is greater than 3 schoolbuses.
We look around us, and we see that 5 of anything
is always greater than 3 of the same thing.
There's no reason that should change if the 'things' are eighths.
Way #2:
-- Get 2 friends to help you.
-- Take one good-size veggie pizza or coconut cream pie.
-- Carefully cut it up in eight (8) equal pieces.
Now each piece is 1/8 of the pie or the pizza.
-- Give 5 pieces (5/8) to the first friend.
Give 3 pieces (3/8) to the other friend.
-- Ask them to get together and agree on who has more.
Answer:
See explanation below
Step-by-step explanation:
Archimedes was able o obtain the actual volume of the supposedly gold made object by collecting the water displaced by the object as it was sunk on a bowl filled with water to the rim. Then knowing the volume displaced and therefore the volume of the object, he could find the object's density (mass over volume). The mass he could get just by weighting the object. and compare that with the density of any other object made of real gold (like for example a coin) and see if the quotient was the same. The density of both objects should be the same if they are made of the same material.
