Leonardo wrote an equation that has an infinite number of solutions. One of the terms in Leonardo’s equation is missing, as show
Lady bird [3.3K]

Let us suppose missing term is y

so it becomes - ( x-1) + 5 = 2 ( x+3) - y

let us now try solving it for x ( in terms of y )

-x + 1 + 5 = = 2x + 6 - y

-x + 6 = 2x + 6 -y

6 + y = 2x + 6 +x

y = 3x

y / 3 = x

but x is given to be infinite . let us try placing y= the given options

x= x/3 which is not possible

x= 3x/3 which is giving valid statement

x= 1/3 which is a finite value

x= 5/3 again a finite value

so it is only y= 3x which could be the answer

Answer : option second that is 3x

Can someone help out ??
kupik [55]

Answer:

120 cubes

Step-by-step explanation:

Find the volume of the prism and then divide it by the volume of one cube (which is 1/27 cm):

V = length*width*height = (5/3 cm)(4/3 cm)(2 cm) = 40/9 cm³.

Dividing this result by 1/27 yields

40       27         40*3    

------ * ------ = -------------- = 120

  9        1               1
