Do a proportion
8/100= x/70
Cross multiply and divide
70 x 8= 560
560 divided by 100= 5.6
Answer is 5.6
You also could have done .08 x 70 which is also 5.6
The volume of a cuboid is given by length × width × height
We have:
Volume = 7.6 ft³
Height = 3x - 1
Length = x + 5
Width = x
Substituting these into the formula, we have:
7.6 = (3x - 1) (x + 5) (x)
7.6 = [3x² + 15x - x - 5] (x)
7.6 = [3x² + 14x - 5](x)
7.6 = 3x³ + 14x² - 5x
0 = 3x³ + 14x² - 5x - 7.6
Drawing the graph is one way of finding the solution (refer to the graph below):
We have three solutions (where the curve crosses the x-axis):
x = -4.9
x = -0.6
x = 0.8
Putting these solutions back into the context, since we are looking for the value of x which is part of measurement of length, we cannot have negative value, so we will take the value of x = 0.8 ft
Converting 0.8 ft into inches = 0.8 × 12 inches = 9.6 inches
Answer: x = 9.6 inches
Answer:
Adult=58
Step-by-step explanation:
c=child, a=adult
6.4c+9.7a=1145 equation 1
c+a=149 equation 2
a=149-c modified equation 2 to isolate a
6.4c+9.7(149-c)=1145 substitute value of a from equation 1 into equation 2
6.4c+1445.3-9.7c=1145
-3.3c=-300.3
c=91
solve for a
c+a=149
91+a=149
a=58
Check answer:
6.4c+9.7a=1145
6.4(91)+9.7(58)=1145
582.40+562.60=1145
1145=1145
assuming 
Then the column values for base five here are
5³ 5²

We can get 1 × 5³ = 125 → 219 - 125 = 94
We can get 3 × 5² = 75 → 94 - 75 = 19
We can get 3 x
→ 19 - 15 = 4
and 4 = 4 × 
Thus
= 
As a check
(1 × 125 ) + (3 × 25 ) + (3 × 5 ) + 4 = 219
