Answer:

448 cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

Volume of cubes fitted in the box will be equal to the cumulative volume of the cubes.

Since, volume of a cube = (Side)³

Side of the cube = $\frac{1}{2}$ inch

Therefore, volume of the cube = $(\frac{1}{2})^3=\frac{1}{8}$ inches

Volume of the storage box = 56 cubic inches

Since, number of cubes fitted in the storage box = $\frac{\text{Volume of the storage box}}{\text{Volume of one cube}}$

= $\frac{56}{\frac{1}{8}}$

= 56 × 8

= 448 cubes

Therefore, number of cubes fitted in the storage box = 448

Ann is 5 feet 3 inches tall. To find the height of a lamppost, she measured her shadow to be 8 feet 9 inches and the lamppost’s

Makovka662 [10]

Answer: The lamppost is 7 feet 2 inches

Step-by-step explanation: If Ann measured her own height and her shadow, then what she used is a ratio between both measurements. If she can measure the shadow of the lamppost, then she can use the same ratio of her height and it’s shadow to derive the correct measurement of the lamppost.

If Ann’s height was measured as 5 feet 3 inches, and her shadow was 8 feet 9 inches, the ratio between them can be expressed as 3:5.

Reduce both dimensions to the same unit, that is, inches. (Remember 12 inches = 1 foot)

Ratio = 63/105

Reduce to the least fraction

Ratio = 3/5

If the height of the lamppost is H, then

H/144 = 3/5

H = (144 x3)/5

H = 86.4

Therefore the lamppost is approximately 86 inches, that is 7 feet and 2 inches tall.

Given: (a) $2(x+3)=2x+6$ and (b) $4(y-3)=4y-12$ .

To find: The expanded form of the given expressions.

(c) $4(m+n)=4m+4n$ (using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ )

(d) $3(5-q)=15-3q$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )

(e) $5(2c+1)=10c+5$ (using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ )

(f) $3(2x-5)=6x-15$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )

(g) $7(4b-1)=28b-7$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )

(h) $3(2x+y-5)=3((2x+y)-5)$

⇒ $3(2x+y-5)=3(2x+y)-15$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )

⇒ $3(2x+y-5)=6x+3y-15$ (using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ )

(i) $2(6a-4b+3)=2((6a-4b)+3)$

⇒ $2(6a-4b+3)=2(6a-4b)+6$ (using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ )

⇒ $2(6a-4b+3)=12a-8b+6$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )

(j) $6(m+n+p)=6((m+n)+p)$

⇒ $6(m+n+p)=6(m+n)+6p$ (using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ )

⇒ $6(m+n+p)=6m+6n+6p$ (using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ )

(k) $y(y+2)=y^2+2y$ (using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ )

(l) $g(g-3)=g^2-3g$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )

(m) $n(4-n)=4n-n^2$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )

(n) $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ (using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ )

(o) $s(3s-4)=3s^2-4s$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )

(p) $2x(x+5)=2x^2+10x$ (using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ )

(q) $4y(x-3)=4xy-12y$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )

(r) $5a(2b-5)=10ab-25a$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )

(s) $4a(3b+2c)=12ab+8ac$ (using $a(b+c)=ab+ac$ )

(t) $5p(4p-5q)=20p^2-25pq$ (using $a(b-c)=ab-ac$ )
