Answer:

x=-5

Step-by-step explanation:

opening the bracket on the LHS, we have

-8x-40= -3x+x-7-3

-8x-40= -2x-10

collecting like terms

-8x+2x= -10+40

-6x= 30

divide both sides by -6

x= -5

There are eight girls competing in an ice-skating competition. In how many ways can they finish in first, second, and third plac

docker41 [41]

Since we need to find the number of ways they could enter first, second and third place, (I can't demonstrate, but you should get the idea) take 8, 7 and 6 and multiply them, 5-1 we don't need, we just need 8, 7, and 6, multiply those three numbers and you get 336, there you go, 336 ways to organize all 8 girls in first, second and third place, hope this helps

if two pyramids are similar and the ratio between the lengths of their edges is 2;7 what is the ratio of their volumes? ...?

jok3333 [9.3K]

The answer is 8:343.

We can use Galileo's square cube law to calculate the ratio between two similar pyramids. The law is used to describe the change of the area or the volume of the shape when their dimensions increase or decrease:
$\frac{V_1}{V_2} =( \frac{l_1}{l_2} )^{3} \\$ 
 
V₁ and V₂ - volumes of pyramids,
l₁ and l₂ - the edges of pyramids.

 $\frac{V_1}{V_2} =( \frac{l_1}{l_2} )^{3} \\ \frac{V_1}{V_2} =( \frac{2}{7} )^{3} \\ \frac{V_1}{V_2} = \frac{2^{3}}{7^{3}} \\ \frac{V_1}{V_2} = \frac{8}{343} \\$
