How many plastic cubes can fit into the box?
netineya [11]

Option D:

160 plastic cubes can fit into the box.

Solution:

Convert mixed fraction into improper fraction.

Length of the box = 4 ft

Width of the box = 2\frac{1}{2}=\frac{5}{2} ft

Height of the box = 2 ft

Volume of the box = length × width × height

                                 $=4\times\frac{5}{2} \times2

                                 = 20 ft³

Volume of the box = 20 ft³

Length of the plastic cube = \frac{1}{2} ft

Volume of the cube = length × length × length

                                 $=\frac{1}{2} \times\frac{1}{2} \times\frac{1}{2}

                                 $=\frac{1}{8} \ \text{ft}^3

Volume of the cube = 0.125 ft³

$\text{Number of plastic cubes}=\frac{\text{Volume of box}}{\text{Volume of cube}}      

                                        $=\frac{20}{0.125}

                                        = 160

Number of plastic cubes = 160

Hence 160 plastic cubes can fit into the box.

Option D is the correct answer.

What is the slope of the line on the graph?<br><br><br><br> Enter your answer in the box.
astraxan [27]

Answer: The slope of the line is 6.

You can use the distance formula to find the slope (Y2-Y1/X2-X1). You can plug in any two points seen on the graph into the formula. I will use (0,-1) and (1,5). When I plug in the values, 5-(-1)/1-0=6/1=6. So the slope of the line is 6.
