x = number of packages he bought
y = number of popsicles in each package
Here are the two equations:
xy = 54
x = 3 + y
Using the substitution method, you can solve them to find x and y.
(3 + y)y = 54,
3y + y^2 = 54
y^2 + 3y - 54 = 0
Solve the quadriatic equation:
(y +9)(y - 6) = 0
y = -9, 6.
Plug y into: xy = 54
x(-9) = 54, x = -6.
x(6) = 54, x = 9.
So he bought 9 packages of popsicles, bc you can't bye -6 packages.
Answer:
either 2^8/3^8 or 256/6561
Step-by-step explanation:
looked it up on Symbolab
It would be 8.185 since there aren't 2 numbers that evenly go into 67
The maximum possible volume of this type of box that can be made from a 20 cm by 20 cm square of paper is 512cm³.
<h3>How to calculate the volume?</h3>
From the information, when the side of 1cm are cut, this will become an open box. The volume will be:
= 18 × 18 × 1
= 324cm³
Also, when 2cm is cut, the volume will be:
= 16 × 16 × 2
= 512cm³
