"The sum of their ages is 48" means x + (x + 1) + (x + 2) = 48 

<span>x + x + 1 + x + 2 = 48 </span>

<span>x + x + x + 1 + 2 = 48 </span>

<span>3x + 3 = 48 </span>

<span>3x = 48 - 3 </span>

<span>3x = 45 </span>

<span>x = 45/3 = 15 </span>

<span>So if the youngest is 15 (x = 15), then the oldest is x + 2 or 15 + 2 = 17</span>

A. If the player chooses 6, 4, and 8 each time, they have 3/5 chances to win.

These are all even so as long as they get one of these combinations they will win

b. All three combinations still work when multiplied

6*4=24

Find the volume of a prism-shaped watermelon in cubic inches if it's length is 10 inches, its width is 2/3 foot and it's height
Murljashka [212]
The volume is 60 cubic inches.

To solve, follow the formula Volume = Length · Height · Width. If you are solving without a calculator, simply multiply the length and the height first, then multiply the product of that by the width, 2 / 3.
V = 10 · 9 · 2/3
V = (10 · 9) 2/3
V = 90 · 2/3
<span>V = 60 in.³
</span>
Hope this helps. Good luck! :)
