Aladdin found a cave filled with boxes of gold, measuring 2 inches × 2 inches × 2 inches, and boxes of silver, measuring 1 inch

× 1 inch × 1 inch. However, Aladdin brought only one box measuring 6 inches × 6 inches × 7 inches with him. He filled it with as many boxes of gold as would fit, then put as many boxes of silver as would fit in the remaining space. How many boxes of treasure did Aladdin take?

Answer:

Aladdin took 32 boxes of treasure.

Step-by-step explanation:

The dimensions of the box Aladdin brought are 6 inch × 6 inch × 7 inch.

Since, the volume of the box = Length × Width × Height.

So, the volume of the Aladdin's box = 6 × 6 × 7 = 252 inch³

Now, the dimensions of the gold box are 2 inch × 2 inch × 2 inch.

So, the volume of the gold box = 2 × 2 × 2 = 8 inch³

Thus, the number of gold boxes which can fit inside Aladdin's box = \frac{252}{8} = 31 boxes

Also, as the dimensions of the silver box are 1 inch × 1 inch × 1 inch.

So, the volume of the silver box = 1 × 1 × 1 = 1 inch³

Then, the number of silver boxes which can fit inside Aladdin's box is 1.

Hence, Aladdin took 31 + 1 = 32 boxes of treasure.

The population, P(t), of China, in billions, can be approximated by1 P(t)=1.394(1.006)t, where t is the number of years since th
vitfil [10]

Answer:

At the start of 2014, the population was growing at 8.34 million people per year.

At the start of 2015, the population was growing at 8.39 million people per year.

Step-by-step explanation:

To find how fast was the population growing at the start of 2014 and at the start of 2015 we need to take the derivative of the function with respect to t.

The derivative shows by how much the function (the population, in this case) is changing when the variable you're deriving with respect to (time) increases one unit (one year).

We know that the population, P(t), of China, in billions, can be approximated by P(t)=1.394(1.006)^t

To find the derivative you need to:

\frac{d}{dt}\left(1.394\cdot \:1.006^t\right)=\\\\\mathrm{Take\:the\:constant\:out}:\quad \left(a\cdot f\right)'=a\cdot f\:'\\\\1.394\frac{d}{dt}\left(1.006^t\right)\\\\\mathrm{Apply\:the\:derivative\:exponent\:rule}:\quad \frac{d}{dx}\left(a^x\right)=a^x\ln \left(a\right)\\\\1.394\cdot \:1.006^t\ln \left(1.006\right)\\\\\frac{d}{dt}\left(1.394\cdot \:1.006^t\right)=(1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^t

To find the population growing at the start of 2014 we say t = 0

P(t)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^t\\P(0)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^0\\P(0)' = 0.00833901 \:Billion/year

To find the population growing at the start of 2015 we say t = 1

P(t)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^t\\P(1)' = (1.394\cdot \ln \left(1.006\right))\cdot 1.006^1\\P(1)' = 0.00838904 \:Billion/year

To convert billion to million you multiple by 1000

P(0)' = 0.00833901 \:Billion/year \cdot 1000 = 8.34 \:Million/year \\P(1)' = 0.00838904 \:Billion/year \cdot 1000 = 8.39 \:Million/year

5x + 3 = 6x – 1<br> Solve for the solution
Genrish500 [490]

Answer: x=4

Step-by-step explanation:

Subtract 6x from both sides.

5x+3−6x=6x−1−6x

−x+3=−1

Step 2: Subtract 3 from both sides.

−x+3−3=−1−3

−x=−4

Step 3: Divide both sides by -1.

−x/−1 = −4/−1

x=4
