Answer:
Step-by-step explanation:
Volume of a cube is length * width * height. Because it's a cube, all of these lengths are the same measurement so rather than doing V = l*w*h, we can do one of the measurements cubed, let's call it x.
So Volume = x³. So if we are given the volume, we can the length by doing the cube root.
∛125 = 5
∛216 = 6
Surface area of a cube = 6x². So now we plug both of these measurements into the formula.
For 5:
SA = 6(5)² = 6(25) = 150
For 6:
SA = 6(6)² = 6(36) = 216
The ratio of their surface areas is 150:216 or if you simplify it by dividing both by the GCF of 6, 25:36
Answer:
<h3>(x - 0.15x) and x(1.00 - 0.15)</h3>
Step-by-step explanation:
Let x be the original price of a lawn mower,
If the hardware store is having a 15% off sale on lawn mowers this weekend, the amount discounted is expressed as;
= 15 % of x
= 0.15 of x
= 0.15x
Final sales price = Original price - discounted price;
Final sales price = x - 0.15x
Factor out x;
x - 0.15x = x(1 - 0.15)
Hence the correct equations are (x - 0.15x) and x(1.00 - 0.15)
